WOW!
I've had one of these since it came out in 2012 and I love it, plays like butter sound exactly how you'd want a strat to sound, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

the strat.
I always wanted a maple neck strat, and being a super fan of the Vintage Modified line this was just an obvious choice. Probably the coolest (and less boring) look for a strat, also.

I Love It !!!
Best guitar in the world? No. But it is what I needed. Rock On !!! I am planning on changing out all of the electronics and one of the pups. Plus I plan on shielding it well. They don't come well shielded.

Great starting guitar for the money.
I have this guitar in a vintage blonde color and indian laurel fretboard. The neck feels a bit chunky for me but it still plays great. The Duncan designed pickups are fine too although I feel that the bridge is a bit too thin-sounding. Overall, this guitar is great especially for those who are just starting out on guitar.
Steve Rothery White Ibanez
Hi everyone - I'm a huge Steve Rothery / Marilion fan. I've just found this site showing some of his guitars. Does anyone know what exact white Ibanez model he used in the Top Of The pops video of 'Cover My Eyes' It's on You Tube? Thanks - Rich

It's a Strat
Comparable to Mex made fenders. Used to own a mex telecaster and it played a little better but this one still plays really nicely. No awful frets slicing you or anything. Sound-wise I upgraded the pickups and it sounds just as good as any fender. The hotrail I put in the bridge sounds better than a $2k Les Paul I used to have if that tells you anything. Solid guitar for a nice price.
