Japanese manufacturing, factory Fujigen by the team Jcraft
specifications have been repeatedly cited,
reminder,
handle 24 cases, flat profile and rather thin, but thicker than the Sabre, it was said on the other hand too large handle that is very relevant to modern technology but failed when it comes from a vintage rpfil.
Evolution mics two doubles and one single, with a notable difference in output level between the position and double intermediate positions with simple micro environment.
This is a recent model with rosewood fingerboard.

UTILIZATION

The handle is nice but needs time to adapt by what it is wide, but once accustomed, it is very interesting, especially if you want to go play in the plans .. Vai. Do not lose sight, it seems, this is a signature guitar and not just any.

The ergonomics are perfect, everything about this guitar is designed to facilitate the game

It gets all the sounds you want, again, is in the Vai guitar, it suffices to know the record of this artist to know that his guitar is capable of making almost all the sounds that one asks an electric guitar. This guitar delivers the sound you want, depending on pickups selected, setting the tone. He is obviously having an amplification performance, plugged into a Bogner is the dream, anything is possible. For me, it's a guitar studio that wants to have maximum versatility.

SOUNDS

Obtained the right sound was the question that was asked just before.

So yes, I get all the sounds I want.

I mainly branch in a Bogner Alchemist is the perfect blend that allows the guitar to express its enormous potential.

I do not hate anything in this guitar, no regrets or anything.


OVERALL OPINION

I use this guitar for two years, but I had one before, so my experience JEM not date from yesterday, I am the true superstrate that exceeds all others that I I have tried.

I tried many other models and owned and played many other guitars (Ton Anderson ....)

Superstrate is true, the most powerful.

Everything is ok in this guitar.

Only the value for money leaves a bit to be desired, Ibanez made to pay dearly for their "signature" Made In Japan.

It's a shame. I therefore give 9 as Excellent, but not for Perfect 10, because the price is still a bit high.

That said, there are in the range of Ibanez RG Jem very close to this that are sold at prices much lower, failing to buy a new or used Jem, do not hesitate to seek this path.

IBAN rest masterfully demonstrates great skill in making modern guitar.

The other thing I appreciate tremendously from Ibanez is the stability of their string instruments. I've never encountered any problem violin whatever the terms of use, transportation, storage, it's very serious, their wood is ok, it's still nice, it matters because I had some heartbreaking experiences with other brands.

I of course do it again this election, a Start, a Tele, a Jaguar, a Gibson LP, a superstrate Ibanez and with such a team ....

What happiness!
