When looking up any guitar that I think would suit me, everybody says it’s a good guitar “for a beginner”.
I’m not a beginner at all, yet throughout multiple breaks and almost no playing in public, I stuck to my acoustic guitar and OCCASIONALLY the classic fender stratocaster. However as I’m now getting into rock more and more, my stratocaster is being left behind and I can’t find a good guitar in the 300-600$ range that ISNT “for beginners”.
So I’ll ask again, what are the best guitars for intermediate (or higher) players. Right now I’m looking at a Ibanez GRG121DX-BKF, although it’s a bit cheap…

Hi all! I bought this Ibanez GRGM51HP
Mikro in 2008 in North Carolina. It has the built-in amp and speaker. It is good quality, not used often. I am probably going to sell this to a local guitar shop.

Can anyone help me estimate what the value would be today? The only reference I found online is one 10-year old listing on Reverb for $90.

All help is very much appreciated!

Does anyone know of one in the rg series? They just have so many models and I can’t find any current ones.

I found this bass on Facebook marketplace for very cheap. Reverse image searching came up bunk, so I’m just using all my resources before buying it.

It’s some Ibanez gio with a double locking trem I got from guitar center but it didn’t come with the bar and I’m wondering if anyone can identify the model of the bridge so I can get a replacement whammy bar

Also some pics of the guitar

I’ve ruined a UV70P and made it modern as hell.

Hello, i have an ibanez artwood aw-18 acoustic guitar (6 strings) and the saddle is broken. My local repair man (i’m in Senegal) says he can’t make another one with this particular shape. I was wondering if there is any way to order one and where to get it. Thank you

Does anybody know what kind of strings come on an ibanez rg series. Brand wise. I can find the size all day. I normally use slinky orange. The strings that came stock feel completely different from the earnies I normally play.

I was seriously considering putting the gotoh 1996t floating trem in my jem jr but someone had this to say after a post with a upgraded jem jr (gotoh 1996t)

If anyone has put this floating trem in their jem jr and had problems and or positive feedback let me know🙌🏻🙌🏻

Found this old archive footage in my backups from mid-2017. "Silvera" was one of the tracks that completely blew my mind when Magma came out. That main tapping riff and the solo section are incredibly fun but require some serious precision.

Gear used:
- Ibanez XP300FX
- Kustom 12 Gauge

Let me know what you think of the execution and that old-school raw room tone! If you want to see more, check out the full video on YouTube.

I apologize in advance for the AI-generated image, i’m not a graphic designer, so I don’t really know how to use image editing tools, I just wanted to convey a rough idea of ​​what I was looking for. Naturally, there are details that the AI ​​doesn’t get quite right, but it’s somewhat helpful for establishing a concept. I’m sure Ibanez could have done a better job than just pasting a PNG onto the body of your guitar.

Super disappointed in Dragonball release so I made a mockup "using AI". hope this reach them

Gonna have to get at least the tube screamer, and depending on the cost, the prestige.

So I bought this today. It's an Ibanez Radius from 1992. So far so good, except they never made one in this colour.

The story is that it was assembled in America from parts ordered from Japan, and then ended up in Britain.

Personally I think it's more likely that it's a Japan limited run, what do you guys think?

The original pickups were included with the guitar, so I can return to stock (ibz/USA) the toggle switch was added when the pickups were changed

Hey folks,

Back in 2008 when I started getting pretty serious about guitar I bought myself an Ibanez PGM301 because my favorite shredder was Paul Gilbert at the time.

About 3 years later I ended up selling it to buy a Jeff Loomis 7 string Schecter. This turned out to be something I'd regret.

I can't help but remember just how amazing that guitar was to play, and how good it sounded. The problem is they are fairly expensive used now and they don't pop up for sale often.

Is there another Ibanez model that is essentially the same guitar, but without it being a PGM model? I know prestige models won't ever be "cheap". Maybe somewhere around $800-1200 would be where I'm comfortable. I also kind of miss having a fixed bridge.

Appreciate any suggestions in advance!

My current Ibanez lineup is: RG170, JEM JR, RG550, RG565, and a JEM7V.

Got it from an old studio frend who had to quit due to his age! Amazing bass guitar with a sound sooo good, i cant really describe it!
