Amazing Value!

I pre-ordered this Ibanez Performance Series 12 string and couldn't wait for it to come in. It was well worth the wait! I've played much more expensive 12 strings and this one can keep up with the best of them. It came in perfectly setup. The neck is smooth and extremely comfortable. The finish is impeccable, and the sound is everything I would expect from a much higher end 12 string. It plays beautifully and very comfortably. This is a great buy and suited for a beginner, intermediate, or seasoned performer. It won't disappoint. I've never owned an Ibanez and must admit I was a bit leery of buying one, but Ibanez has made a believer out of me. You will not find a finer 12 string at this price point any where!

Great sound...below average construction

I have had this guitar for about 3 months now and I am extremely happy with the sound. It has great tone and sustain. While on the other hand, the construction of this guitar is sub-par at best. There are numerous issues with the finish of the wood as well as the tuners. The fret board is sanded and finished very unevenly. Some of the frets have sharp edges that I carefully filed down and there is an abundant amount of excess glue on the inside as well as a few cracks on the sides of the fretboard/neck. To sum it up, the sound is amazing, but the construction is obviously "Made in China" as the sticker on the inside so proudly dictates. I say for the $200 its a great buy as long as you dont care what the guitar looks like.

    Rich sound. Really satisfying. Needs frequent tuning, perhaps because it is new.

    The guitar would come pre-strung and ready to play. It would just need to be tuned.
