Review: Easy to play, incredibly comfortable, comes alive on an amp. - LOVE this guitar. Was very apprehensive about buying online but also didn't want to deal with the anxiety of shopping at a store as a not-quite-beginner-but-not-quite-intermediate musician. Arrived timely and with no damage. Was well packaged with care for the product in mind. The finish is BEAUTIFUL. I fell in love immediately. Had to adjust the action after I tuned it but once I got that settled it played like a dream. I will say this: it's a little thin unplugged. The magic happens on an amp. Absolutely beautiful sound. The built in tuner is a welcome accessory. Also worth noting: I struggle with carpal tunnel/nerve issues in both hands being in my early 40s and spending most of my career as a butcher. I have a solid body Jackson that wears me out after about two hours. I could have played this guitar all day. The wrist/hand fatigue was nothing compared to my other instrument and I'm not sure if that's because of the fretboard on the acoustic or the heavy strings/possible PM that's needed on my other guitar. Regardless - felt it was worth mentioning. Highly recommend!
Review: I love it! - This guitar sounds great and plays even better. It is very sleek and comfortable to play. I was hesitant about buying a guitar online, but it came well packaged with no damage. Great guitar for the price point.

### ⭐⭐ Not what they used to be
*by G***L on August 9, 2024*

Ibanez used to make some decent quality guitars at a price that wouldn’t break the bank. Those days seem to be long gone. Out of the box & unplugged the sound quality is just… off & flat. I’m not sure how else to describe it, but it doesn’t sound like their older acoustic/electric models. Plugging it in didn’t prove to be much better as it just sounded… odd… & even more flat somehow… no matter how much I adjusted the onboard preamp settings. For reference I have a 20 year old Ibanez AE-18 acoustic/electric that sounds incredible plugged & unplugged. Having bought guitars & other instruments online in the past this has steered me to shop & buy local moving forward . I should have looked around in my city first before buying online. Also… DO NOT buy anything from Butler Music. There are better options than them.
