UTILIZATION

I'm usually pretty impressed by Ibanez guitars, but this one left me a bit cold. The Edge Zero tremolo system, in my opinion, is junk. It is made from cheaper metals, it is a poorer design, and it doesn't function and perform like it should. It doesn't take to divebombs and up-pulls as well as a regular Edge system. The neck is fantastic, the pickups are not bad, but the trem system is just not good.

SOUNDS

The pickups are good. Nothing terribly special, but better than most. They get the job done with nearly any genre/style/technique, but they can lose some of the finer nuances of subtle playing.

OVERALL OPINION

Overall, this guitar is just ok, which is disappointing, because Ibanez usually rocks. And this color is so loud and in your face, the guitar should be able to perform! But unfortunately, the tremolo system is just not up to snuff. At this price, I'd just look for an older RG from Japan with the Edge system.
