    This is a good sounding cheap guitar. Made in china. Its mahogany with open pores is beautiful in the right lighting. My only issue is the pick guard did not look good to me personaly, so i took it off. Over all its a nice guitar.

  • Nice guitar for the price.

    Would have given this product 5 stars but it arrived with the truss rod out of adjustment (high E string buzzing). I went back to GC to return it but the tech adjusted the truss rod right there. Guitar has a nice sound and I appreciate the tech resolving it right there for me.

  • Great choice

    This guitar is very good for the money tbh. I love it. It has a bright high end and a deep bass tone. It's excellent and worth it. Although I will mention that the frets were kinda sharp out of the box and did cut me a couple of times but I just sanded it down and it felt better. Overall it's wonderful and is very well worth it. Btw change out the strings if you get this product

  • Nice for the price!

    Highly recommend for the novice rhythm guitar player (note: I'm a slightly more advanced want-to-be keyboard player)... Previously had an off-the-line Fender acoustic (in the same price range) in which I used to learn the basics, but the Ibanez has better action and a much crisper sound. The added benefit of a pick-up and built-in tuner make it a much more attractive.

    Hi, Would this guitar work for a person who is 5.4" tall. He has a really small frame. Thanks! Brian

    The description says there is a tuner and there is not a tuner. Is there a tuner built into the pickup on this guitar?

    What does this guitar have for strap holding?

    Open Reply - Gear Specialist
    The guitar has a bottom strap pin and will need to be tied at the top. Or you can. use the following: Martin Headstock Tie Guitar Strap Button as an option.
