    this guitar rocks hard! the neck is realy thin and is awesome for playing realy fast stuff,and the D Activator pickups make this thing scream! i also love the string thu body design because it looks cool and makes it sustain forever. palm mutes also sound friggin insane on this thing if you place your hand in the right spot. i have it in white with the black hardware and it pretty sexy. the input is in a wierd spot but its pretty nice cuz it holds the cable in really tight. the only things i dont like about about it is the rediculous amount of fret buzz(although you cant hear it through the distortion you certainly can feel it) and some little blemishes in the paint and stuff, but thats about it. some people complain that they cant sit down and play, but if you put the bottom part of the V between your legs its not that bad.

  • Great, but not for everyone

    This guitar is incredible. The action is perfect, the frets are great, the pickups unbelievable. It looks killer too. Before you go out and buy this sexy thing, TRY IT. This guitar can be very difficult to play while sitting so make sure you can handle that. Reaching some of the frets while sitting is near impossible. If your the type of guy who likes to stand while playing (like me) then this guitar is great.

    When i first thought Ibanez was making a V, i thought it was going to be awesome, especially since Sam Totman plays it. Well, being dissapoinedt by the fact you cant sit down and play because of the input jack, and how about 8 frets are into the body,it was bad for soloing. Explains for itself since the guy from "Studioforce" plays it. If you're going to buy it, try it before you get it right away.

  • This Guitar is Hot!
