MGR/Steven H. « Ibanez RG220 »
Published on 07/17/04 at 15:00I BOUGHT MY IBANEZ RG220 AT A GUITAR CENTER ,CLOSE TO WHERE I LIVE. I WENT IN WANTING A JACKSON OR A SCHECTER, BUT ONCE I PICKED THE IBANEZ UP, I WANTED IT. I PAID $320 FOR IT. IT SAID $299, BUT THE TAXES MIGHT GET YOU. IT ORIGINALLY PRICED AT $675, BUT I GOT A GOOD DEAL ON IT.
I LOVE THE FAST ACTION PLAYABILITY ON IT. I CAN MOVE MY FINGERS SO MUCH FASTER ON IT, THAN MY EPIPHONE AND FENDER. IT HAS A VERY CLEAN DISTORTION SOUND INSTEAD OF A FUZZY SOUND. I ALSO LIKE THE COLOR TOO. IT IS A METALLIC LAVENDER.
I'M NOT TO CRAZY ABOUT THE LOCK ON THE NECK OR THE STRINGING UP THE GUITAR. THE TREMELO IS A LITTLE OUT OF WHACK.I WOULD PROBABLY HAVE IT A DIFFERENT WAY. I'M NOT USED TO THE STYLE, BUT I"LL GET IT EVENTUALLY.
THE NECK IS THIN WHICH ENABLES YOU TO PLAY QUICKER AND EASIER IN MY OPINION. THE TWO TWIN HUMBUCKERS GIVE IT A VERY GOOD SOUND.IT HAS A CLEAN SOUND WITHOUT DISTORTION AND YOU CAN GET IT TO WHERE IT HAS A VERY HEAVY SOUND.
IT IS A VERY GOOD GUITAR FOR ANY PLAYER, PRO OR BEGINNER. A BEGINNER MIGHT HAVE TROUBLE WITH THE LOCK AND THE UNIQUE WAY OF STRINGING IT UP, BUT YOU'LL GET USED TO IT AFTER A WHILE. IT IS A GREAT BRAND, I THINK IBANEZ IS A TOP NOTCH GUITAR AND MANUFACTURER. THEY MAKE GUITARS WITH SOME OF THE BEST QUALITY AROUND. I'VE BEEN PLAYING FOR 4 AND A HALF YEARS AND I FINALLY GOT AN IBANEZ THE OTHER DAY. I WOULD RECOMEND THIS GUITAR TO ANY GUITAR PLAYER.
