    Thank you for plugging my Plugin. The Yellow was a good choice for the 2nd tonal variation on the Fluence pickups. I loved your “This guitar can only do 1 thing... ok that’s 2... oh 3. Well you get my point”. 🤣🤣🤣 That was hilarious 😆

    Ibanez should install stainless steel frets on mid-priced guitars like this. Schecter and Solar already does it.

    Excellent review. I know I‘m a bit late to the party but I just wanted to mention two little details although I‘m sure somebody else must have mentioned it earlier: the coil tap switch overrides the status of voice 1 / voice 2. Ultimately this means you have nine different sound options. This is what the Fishman manual quite clearly says.
    To tame the high frequencies there is an internal option under the hood (backside of the pickups). It is called HFT (high frequency tilt) and you can activate it by a separate switch or just a simple jumper/solder connection.
    I hope somebody finds those information useful. Please double check yourself. The technical Fishman stuff can be quite confusing.

      Wow I didn't know that about the hft, have any info on where to get more info on how to do that switch? Have this guitar coming in the mail.. thanks!

    Yesssssss! I've been waiting for this review for weeks! I've been on the fence between this guitar or the S61AL. I was leaning towards the S and this has solidified that decision. Very helpful. Also love the visuals for switching the pickups.

    Have just received this guitar. Bridge pickup upper screw is broken in half, neck pickup upper screw's head is destroyed. Bridge pickup blocks 5-6th strings, neck pickup can't be lowered also. And by the way, guitar does not even work. Is it Indonesian Ibanez quality right now? It's not an instrument, it's garbage...

    Every model has a Wizard neck ? Bad idea. I really like the body neck joint contour on Ibanez, but I d get Carpel Wrist after playing a week. And its not like after market companies make replacement necks, so they're missing sales.

    • @TrevorTowstego
      @TrevorTowstego 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      There are a lot of different types of Wizard necks. The Nitro Wizard neck on this one is about 2mm thicker than the Super Wizard HP that you'd find on most prestige RGs. They're all still relatively thin but there is at least some variation!

  • @JimsMusicJourney
    @JimsMusicJourney 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Another Ibanez video that sounds slightly out of tune (which would drive me nuts). So if you want to buy this you will need to get new tuners and a new nut. I dont get it. Guitarist crave tuning stability. Crappy fret work too. I would absolutely pass on this. But then again you could take it to a luthier and make it nice. But I would like it with some type of tremolo. For a little extra money I would get a Schecter, not the budget version.

    If the whole body had that rainforest finish, we could talk. I'm so over gloss black guitars. I know I'm in the minority there, but hey, I'd argue that being just like everyone else isn't very "rock & roll" or "metal".
