Good Floyd equipped guitar introduction.
This was my first Floyd equipped guitar. This guitar was a good introductory, but it had its issues.
To start, the first month was not so pleasant- I had stripped the screw head in the claw so I could not fine tune my bridge angle to be correct for my tuning. After this was fixed, I had replaced the bridge and nut with gotoh pieces. In late 2020 the fretboard has started cracking and it has now been disassembled at the headstock to prevent further cracking. This guitar is actually built really well for a cheaper guitar- it has a nice chunkier than usual neck for an ibanez with a satin finish and excellent dark rosewood fretboard, nice thick body and beautiful beige finish, nice pearloid pickguard, it was just the hardware and electronics that were fairly inexpensive really. Overall, this guitar had it's issues but for an inexpensive guitar it was really pleasant and a bit more than what I expected. It is not a long term guitar but a great introductory to the Floyd systems.
