GRG7221QA-TKS : Buy this guitar

4 years ago

Alright, first of all. This guitar is a beauty. The color is just amazing if you compare it to it's price.

Tuners - Standard Ibanez tuners, maybe not of the highest quality but hold the tuning (don't expect too much though).

Neck - The neck is really thin and Very easy to get used to, especially if this is your first 7 string guitar (like me).

Fretboard - The fretboard was a bit dry, which was not an issue since just a touch of lemon oil made it look like a new. No sharp edges whatsoever.

Bridge - The bridge is very comfortable and doesn't bother me at all while i play. The string height was on default, so i had to lower them a bit. Even though i had never done something like that, i watched a video on youtube where a guy does it with a credit card and it worked just fine since this bridge is easy to adjust. The intonation was spot on, out of the box.

Pickups & Knobs - Not the best pickups but they play pretty well. The neck one felt a bit weak, maybe due to it's height (Kinda low) . I am considering of swapping them with a Fishman fluence set. The knobs are smooth and pretty just like the guitar :).

Body - Light and comfortable no matter how you hold your guitar.

I bought this guitar only to test 7 string guitars, and i got one thing to say. Buy this one even if it's your first guitar. Extremely good quality for it's price. I wish this one was available when i started playing guitar. There is no way you will regret spending your money on this guitar unless your are looking for a professional instrument.
