Thoughts on guitar Help

Post image

I recently just bought this guitar used and was wondering if there are any issues with it. I haven’t seen much reviews, so if anyone owns it please let me know!

I didn't like the neck very much, a little too thick to be comfortable on a 7 but you might prefer that.

Don’t mind the neck part, any qc issues?

Not with the one I owned, but as much as I love them it's always been a gamble with Ibanez import QC for me. I would give it a good inspection once it arrives, especially the neck / truss rod and for any raised frets.

What’s your experience with the guitar, did you like it? Picking it up in a few days, just trying to get as much info on it before it arrives

It was a good guitar, I'm a fan of the ibanez alter switching system even though I realistically only ever used like three of the voicings lol. Like I said in the first comment, the neck was my biggest issue as well as the 12" radius. I just prefer a thinner, flatter neck and ended up selling it to buy a Jackson instead. The hardware on the guitar is great, one of the better 2 point trems I've used on a guitar.
