The more expensive Ibanez guitars are always great, but I hadn’t realised that the Gio guitars would share the same build quality. Plays really well, stays in tune and really nicely finished. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ As a beginner on a budget, I could not have asked for better. *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 1 April 2023* Summary: This guitar is an excellent choice for a first time guitar player who wants to get into the hobby on a budget.Let me begin by saying: Early models from Ibanez's GIO line have a horrible reputation for being not so great. It was their budget line of guitars and they felt and played like it. After looking into electric guitars - I've wanted to learn to play for a while, but just couldn't get past the hurdle of the price (and motivation, but that's another issue entirely) - I decided on this one after seeing the seemingly rave reviews from both Amazon buyers and YouTube personalities who decided this was a great budget guitar.Needless to say, I was not disappointed. Shipping being prompt aside, the care that Ibanez puts into the GIO line now seems to shine through this guitar. The neck is slim and therefore easy to fret, the entire thing has a nice heft to it and it rests easily in my lap - not to mention the beautiful design on the bridge, which looks great despite just being poplar art grain.The guitar sounds great, has a versatile palette of tones thanks to the 5-position pickup switch and is priced very reasonably. A great gift if a friend or family member wants to start playing an electric guitar but don't have a lot of money.Note: One of the pictures on this listing is inaccurate. The picture that shows the 1/4" input jack shows an old input connector. This input connector was prone to becoming just a little loose - something that was easily fixed with a screwdriver, but something that was annoying nonetheless. I ordered in March 2023 and the model I received has an entirely new input jack designed to solve this issue.According to some YouTube reviews, the pickups aren't great - they work just fine and get the job done, but in my opinion this is a good thing. If you're a beginner learning to play this instrument, you're going to have to learn to maintain it soon enough. Swapping out the pickups seems like a perfect first challenge of this kind to me and frames the guitar as a good modding platform for a custom setup later on. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great guitar *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 4 November 2024* This guitar is exceptional for the price,it is a rock guitar which was perfect for my collection.Would have given it 5 stars but not really set up out of box.So if you do end up buying it,then you should consider getting it set up properly with new strings,this will cost about £40 to £50 but well worth it...Then you will have a fantastic looking guitar that plays as well as it looks...👍 ## Frequently Bought Together - Ibanez GIO GRGR221PA Electric Guitar - Aqua Burst - GLEAM Guitar Stand - Adjustable Fit Electric, Classical Guitars and Bass, Load Capacity 20LB, Accessories, Folding Type Black (CG-4) - New Bee 10 ft Guitar Cable - Electric Instrument Cable for Bass, Guitar, Mandolin, Pro Audio - Straight to Straight - Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/274705824-grgr221pa-aqb-gio-electric-guitar-aqua-burst](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/274705824-grgr221pa-aqb-gio-electric-guitar-aqua-burst) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-11-06*
