Description
The Ibanez GRG220PA1 RG GIO electric guitar pairs the iconic precision, speed and strength of the RG line with the affordability of the GIO series, all with the same Ibanez adherence to quality and performance. It has an okoume body for a bright and solid sound, topped with an eye-catching poplar burl wood grain. The roasted maple neck is heat-treated to increase stability, durability, moisture resistance and tolerance of temperature changes, and is topped with a gorgeous purpleheart fingerboard. The GRG220PA1’s sound is powered by a duo of Classic Elite humbuckers, featuring rich, nuanced tone and a fat low end. Additional appointments include a T106 tremolo with six independent saddles for precise height and intonation adjustment, and a mono-unit output jack to avoid unwanted movement and ensure long-term playing enjoyment.

    I bought this guitar around a month ago and the first five frets were even so I brought it in for an exchange. It's okay, these things happen. Once the replacement arrived I noticed a couple days later the guitar jack is broke. I'll bring it in tomorrow but really? Find something else

    Git this as my first Guitar after taking many years off from playing, absolutely love it. Handles well, smooth everything, stays in tune well, great tone. Definitely a great beginner and more advanced rig.

    Plays like a dream! It easily looks as good as a lot of the Premier series! It is probably one of the most well-made guitars for the price point and the pickups scream!!!! You will be happy if you are an Ibanez fan like myself!

  • Good Guitar, I like it a lot!

    This is a very versatile guitar; you can play multiple genres with it. In addition, it feels very good to play. The only cons where the pickup covers were wobbly, and it goes out of tune easily when using the whammy bar. However, it doesn't affect the guitar in any way, and adding tuning locks would prevent going out of tune when using the whammy bar.

    Play different styles and genres of music. 4 rating cause bridge saddle screws too tall and needed cutting off. Intonation needed adjusting. Frets needed polishing. Great sounding pickups. Fast neck. Easy playing.

    Can you drop tune with this? I know the tremolo can sometimes interfere with the tension and tone of drop tuning.

    Open Reply - Gear-Advisor
    Yes. Of course it will have affect. How far are you going to push? Drop tuning loosens your strings. Diving bombing will loosen them even more. There is no direct answer to your question. Many players, on many guitars drop tune with a whammy.
