Ibanez GRG121DX-WNF Reviews

Great beginner guitar

Absolutely made up with the Ibanez GRG 121. Really nice finish, although it’s darker than I imagined. Sounds fantastic and really loud. As a beginner I found it easier to play than the cheap starter package I originally bought. The frets are ever so slightly sharp on the edges but that’s being very picky. Overall, I am really happy with this guitar, and for the price it is a steal.

amazing

it looks so much better than the pictures, it also feels very nice to play.

Very good beginner guitar

If you want to start playing guitar and looking for a good cheap guitar this is it. Good looks, good finish. Neck is a little bit thick. Pickups do not sustain sound as much. However, beginners do not need to worry about them so much. But if you are turning into an intermediate skilled guitarist and start learning solos, this guitar will not take you to far unless you change the pickups. So, good guitar but pickups need work.

Sounds the same way it looks - amazing!

It is actually the second time I'm buying this same model after moving to another country. Its just super playable and probably one of the best guitars you can get in this price range.

Never been happier

I bought this guitar expecting your usual cheap guitar sound and boy was I wrong. I couldn’t tell the difference between it and my fathers older Ibanez

Honestly, not bad for the price

It’s a great guitar for the price, only thing I noticed is the tuning is a little annoying but slap on some locking tuners, set it up and you’re in business.

Great guitar for beginners

Good sound and amazing quality!

My first guitar.

Probably one of the best price/features/quality solutions. Guitar is surprisingly light and comfortable to play. I didn't have any issues with it at all. It's all set up from the box. As a beginner I can say that I'm totally satisfied with my choice.

For a first, this is THE BEST!

I've been playing guitar for over two years now and this was my first electrical guitar. I still don't regret it. I got to compare it with other electrical guitars in a higher price range (about ~500 euros) and to be honest, even though you can hear a difference it still tries to keep its head up.

I still use this one quite a lot and love the sound that it makes.

I use it for Lo-fi, Ambient and Metal and it works perfectly for these genres (and they differ from each other quite a lot!). One of the BEST purchases you can make in this price range.

Also, the humbuckers work as they should and the design is neat :D.

Ibanez GRG121DX-WNF

I'm so happy to use this guitar because it's so cool. Wood is so natural that's really important for me. Magnets are enough to play everything...

Let's Rock

A guitar with clear highs and a slightly droning bass.

Granny's wardrobe color - looks good.

The edging on the neck is plastic, but the frets scratch your fingers a little.

A five position switch (position 2, 4) disables the single coil humbucker.

Incredible experience for a beginner

I am very surprised that you can get a branded instrument for such a price. At the same time, it has amazing quality and fit, precise execution, perfect painting. Came from the factory with a well-adjusted scale and string heights. I like the sound, only the shielding is lacking in order to remove the light background. Each switch position actually makes a difference in sound, as does the position of the tone knob. It is a pity that in my country the price of this guitar is so high that it is still more profitable to pay customs and delivery from Germany. Delivered by the way in 12 days

Was a good starter guitar

Im not an expert on guitars but in the three years i had it i never had any problems. I never properly got into guitar playing but i really liked this guitar in terms of looks, build quality and sound. I sold it to a friend who has been happy with the guitar since.

awesome for beginners

well built, pickups are low output (around 8 ohm resistance). changed them up and it sounds wonderful! (i'm a metal guitarist, so high output is my way to go)

good, but ....

neck is very good))body is amazing)),but screw of saddles very long ,the threshold of 0 fret is made very high, you need to bore

Best value for money in its price.

Absolutely no competition in that price range.

Unbelievable value for what you pay for.

Electronics failed after 3 months (tone pot stopped working)

Also the guitar kept producing an awful buzz, which I assume was coming from the pickups.

ibanez quality

great guitar for that price range

For metal heads

Like it says, high output pickups, mahogany body and rosewood fretboard, looks great, sounds brilliant and plays good, great value for money.
