That I really like... smi

Hot, and I generally don't like Ibanez.

Since this was made before they became the lame 80s shredder guitar kings of the world, I'll give it a pass.

i base their reputation on how well my RG has held up over the past 16 years, and look at the jazz stuff because of it.

Ibanez makes decent stuff, if not always to my tastes. I have a friend who swears by their 70's archtops and he could afford something nicer....check him out playing his:

if they made a Pat Metheny model with chrome hardware, i'd hit it. but they don't so oh well.

I know they've made some quality stuff, I've just got a really deep seated hatred for the company for some strange, unexplained reason. idn_smilie

Ibanez + Not Pointy = FTW Totally_jammin_out

Hot - very hot!!!!! AOK

Ibanez from about 1978 up through the mid-80's made killer guitars, and this is one of them. A very good price for that guitar as well.
