Just ordered my kid the same Ibanez for his 16th birthday. Paired it with the Kitana 1x12. It’s insane for the price. Roughly $500 invested and he has a jam setup that’s plenty loud with a great guitar in my opinion.
Thanks for the excellent comparison. I really like the way you edited it, sounded so good with the slight overlap when changing guitars. I bought the Squier but now I want the Ibanez aswell lol.
@@angelicaolguinortiz5429 that Ibanez has a 5 positions special switch which can split the hum to single coils on the 2nd and 4th position. In other words, it can easily play country, funk, blues. Sorry but the Ibanez easily knock it out of the ball park on this one.
Got myself Jackson JS22 & PS1 (HSS) & Squier too. But Squier do really sound amazing. My Jackson Humbucker really rocks but Squier neck pick up just unbelievable in clean tone...
I sat through the advertisement out of sheer respect that you put it at the very end where it wouldn't disturb the playing. New subscriber and huge respects 🙏🏻
I have this Ibanez 70Q in 2017...is a fast guitar and real good for a budget friendly and sounds great. China made, Indonesia is said to be better quality control but the Country is going thru a slave labor dispute now, "However" this guitar has 3 months ago had a rave review on PMV TV with Dagan who always demo guitars. Great stuff but I feel bad for those China and Indonesia bad labor abuse, I respect the hands that made my guitar and forced to hurry every one made that way...Peace be with all of them, you have my support!!! You Rock.
@@claydohlite29 I have it, if ur confident in setting up guitars, it can be really good, the only issue I have, is the pickup switch it crackles alot, I don't have anything to fix it tho
This is a great debate! Ibanez and Squier always become the choices for many beginners. For me, it depends on what genre you into. If u into metal then go for ibanez i suggest.
That Ibanez was my first guitar actually XD But in red, now I'm playing a way better guitar, but for every guitar player and especially for beginners, expensive guitars don't make you a better player. You can own a 3k custom Les Paul and still suck, also you can play a squier and absolutly rock. What I mean to say those guitars are totally fine for the first few years.
Гитары как гитары, все хорошие. Наверное возьму себе эту Ибанез, не знаю насколько она проиграет моим старшим Ибанезам, но думаю в 2020-м году, уже всё стали делать адекватно, и бюджетные гитары сейчас лучше намного чем лет 30-40 назад выпускались топовые решения.
I mean with a great guitarist and damn good amp every guitar sounds good... I mean first of all afford that amp, if you would be able to buy that amp, you wouldn't buy a starter guitar XD
I have both these guitars and they are both very different in feel both play nicely clean but the Ibanez has that edge for the rock tones, with a nicer punch. Though the squier sounds good in a “squier” way, I think it goes down to how it’s set up too
ummmm the Bullet Strat is the cheapest line Squire put out, it has a body thickness of 1.5 inches where a regular strat has 1.75. Nothing from Fender actually can fit one of them. All the parts in and on it is cheap and sound bad. Squire nor Fender delivered on anything in this video, it was entirely the amp being extremely high quality. Play a bullet strat and immediately play a Fender Strat and you will hear and feel the difference. Even the Mexican Strats are better.
Muchas gracias por como has confeccionado este video para que cumpla su cometido de comparacion a la perfeccion.La duracion,consecucion y composicion de las notas en los acordes ,de los riffs y de los solos es perfecta.Y por esto y mas cosas,es de los mejores videos comparativas que he visto en youtube nunca,y he visto muchisimos y de canales famosos.El tuyo es simplemente el mas empatico de todos.simplemente perfecto.Muy bien hecho
Слушал с закрытыми глазами, чтоб больше понять разницу, ну скажу, что звук абсолютно разный. Гитарки так то по сути для разного саунда, их сходство лишь в бриджевом хамбе) В прочем, звук весь у тебя в руках находится, потому ты даже с полена высечешь сваримый звук) Ну а если объективно, то у ibanez гораздо больше плотности по низам в бридже, но скваер показался более певучим в соло. Но тем не менее у ibanez меньше лишних призвуков и шума в звуке, скорее из-за того что хамб в неке, но с ним стеклянного клина особо не добиться. Так что уж дело вкуса. Для риффов я б юзал ибунца, а для соло - скваер. В общем зачётный версус.
А мне показалось, что, если на ибанесе чуть-чуть добавить громкость, и подкорректировать тембр, будет почти один в один. Сегодня-таки купил ибанес. Гитара оказалась даже лучше, чем я предполагал. Весь вечер играл, получил удовольствие. Косяков не обнаружил. Меня всё устраивает.
Can someone explain how to make that squeal sound when bending a string? I'm not quite a noob but I'm 100% self taught so there are a lot of things I never really learned.
La Ibanez es más rockera y la Squier es más clásica, la pura demostración de un sonido moderno como la SúperStrato y el Clásico y cristalino de la Stratocaster
Just bought this exact same Ibanez guitar two weeks ago same colour everything blows away the fender by far heard them both the store and there was no contest between the two. Absolutely the best guitar for the price on the market
Учитывая цену этих гитар, звучат довольно не плохо! У булита более выразительно соло. Ибанез больше хардовый звук для ритма подходит или соло с лёгкой вау примесью ( Аля havy metal) . Короче говоря булит пиу-пиу, а ибанез дж-дж-ж))
I think your Bullet was part of a "pack"...in the USA all Bullets are now "hardtails" except for the Starter Packs...which sell for $280 almost everywhere (pretty good deal IMO!)...The Ibanez can be bought just as a "bare" guitar for around $185 (another good buy !)...Ironically...they both are built by Cort-Tech...maybe in the same exact factory :) :)...Sonically,the Ibby's humbuckers are a bit warmer than the Bullet's...but not a lot...prob some tweaking of the EQ would make them sound nearly identical (pity U didn't explore the middle positions on those 5 way switches !)...the biggest diff IMO is in the necks...the Squier is a Fender standard 9.5" radius,Modern C shape and 21 frets w/ Indian Laurel fretboard...the Ibby neck is a super flat 15.5" radius,almost Wizard shape and 22 frets w/ Jatobah fretboard...one is not superior to the other but U may find U love one more depending on your hands and playing style...I would recommend U play both in your local GS to see which U prefer:) :)
Love that gritty H Bullet pickup sound and the rocky licks! The Ibanez sounds pretty similar to my hard of hearing ears, but the Squier just sounds a pinch nastier! :D
I can't decide between these two,which one should i get?which one stays in tune better,has better pick-ups and nicer neck?also how is the action on both of these?
How about playability? Which one is comfortable to play solos and melodies? I own a squire and I get pain on my finger tips when I play slides because the frets are so tall and they rub against my fingers when I play slides. Which guitar will be suitable for me . Im interested in playing more melodies and solos than riffs and chords
I also have a couple of inexpensive Jacksons that really kick ass, I really do not play my more expensive guitars anymore with the exception of one mid priced Ibanez RG that I have that is my absolute favorite guitar...
Yep, Ibanez for me. I've only one earbud in but to me the Ibanez sounds warmer. Great playing! I've always liked this kind of review and this is the way it should be done. I'll come back to the video to just listen. 😀
Aesthetically, I think the GRX70QA in blue or red is the best looking of the entire Ibanez range, and I've been researching and looking over every model and video for months now. I'm a beginner guitarist, but 20+years involved in art and creativity. But I've noticed some of the colours/burst patterns look far better on some guitars than others? Do utubers get the best looking ones I wonder! I've seen the the GRX70QA in both blue (Like this one!) and red looking amazing....but also seen both colours looking not quite as sharp......and to my creative art eye, that's the difference between a £200 guitar looking like a £200 guitar, and a £200 looking like a £500-£1000 guitar.....or as good as anything else Ibanez makes..... Aesthetically!!! Guess I'll just get have to get one and roll the dice on the paint job! But pound for pound I think it's one of top 3 best looking Ibanez, and possibly the best all things considered!.....some of the top line Prestige/Premium may sound amazing, but I'd struggle to hang them on my wall as art objects as some of the paint schemes detract from the look of the guitar for me. Beach designs?? WTF! Not for me! I'm partial to the RG Series though, and also just bought a GRG 140 Sun Burst for £143 to tide my current Ibanez craving over for a few months! I'll upgrade after a few more months beginners practice! And it's my birthday in late August......I see a GRX70QA arriving about then! Blue or Red.....I really don't know.....yet!?.....It'll come to me.....it always does. I'm ok making a spontaneous drink infused guitar purchase online late at night upto £150 once in a while! But anything Ibanez over that and it's best to let your aesthetic creative art taste/sense percolate in your unconscious for as long as it takes until the right decision somehow emerges in your creative mind at the right time, of its own accord! Creativity is 99% perspiration/thinking/considering all the options, and 1% inspiration.....Often after 99 days....(it doesn't usually take that long, it's just a theoretical creative concept)...of deliberation and creative internal conflict......the seemingly obvious perfect choice or action emerges in you mind as the only single perfect choice, almost of its own accord....but really you've put all the creative effort in beforehand to get you to that exact point. 🙏👍🤔😃
Ibanez always wins because their necks are extremely comfortable and fast to play. They actually gear a lot of their guitars towards shredding and this guitar is no different. The radius is a 12 inch radius with a very thin profile, The Squire has a 9.5 inch radius so you do notice it if you play guitars with a radius about above a 12 and it has a fatter profile. Both have pickups that are pretty shit (the reason I personally don't like them is because once you upgrade a guitar with really good pickups you notice the shitty ones.). The Ibanez does have a poplar body which will increase the mids when used as a body, which is literally what shoots those pickups in the foot. In any other guitar with an Ash, Alder, Mahogany, Pine or even Maple body they would sound decent, but in a poplar body you get a noticeable mid range boost which can take away from some music a person might play. I respect the shit out of this video, no ads before the end and you let the guitars do the talking. Good job.
I have them both. The Ibanez is heavier with more output. I don't like the middle pickup on the Ibanez. The chinese bullet does sound good though. Very light.
Idk if i should buy the Ibanez GRX70QA or the Yamaha Pacifica 112V. Could u help me pls. Could u also tell me which is the best amp for someome who's entry-level?
I am really really really confused in both of these...please someone help me..which one should I buy among these two ? If you have read this comment please reply ....
how are u playing a low note but it registers as high note at 0:08 I dont do lessons and i dont know what to type into google/youtube to learn. Would appreciate anyones help
@@agnivachowdhury thanks brother, I really appreciate it. Great timing I just opened TH-cam to practice a song. I guess I’ll focus on pinch harmonics for this session. 👍 thanks again
I've just bought Ibanez GRG 140 Sun burst!....which is an Ibanez with the super strat body + black head stock, so I win this battle. Still gonna get that Ibanez though! If I really wanted a Strat I'd get the real Fender for £569! It's not exactly breaking the bank its only another £250 on so on top of a Squier Strat; I don't know why people bother buying those. The Squier maybe a very decent strat guitar but the name just sounds crap! Whereas..it's an Ibanez and it says so on the headstock! Even the cheap GIO line is bloody good!
Ibanez owners who have/played strats, did you have any trouble adjusting to the wider and flatter neck? I'm interested in an ibanez, but my only playing experience has been with a strat style guitar. Music stores are still closed due to lockdown, so I can't try one out.
That Marshall must have a Celestion speaker, that makes a big difference, great comparison, nice playing 👍 I'm a Fender & Ibanez guy, depends on your style & what your playing ✌️
My son just bought a Gio and I'd gig with it out of the box. Unbelievable playability. Not to mention the fantastic tone. It's a heavy metal, and hard rock, blues machine. Line 6 amp. I was blown away."
hi, i am planing to buy Ibanez GRX70QA but alot of internet review that it has fret buzz and goes out of tune ... what exactly is your opinion did you face those problems and how did you tackle them that makes you play it such fine ...
I have an HSS bullet Strat and an HSS affinity Strat. I love the bullet, play it a lot. The affinity is meh. My hss bullet gets way more play than my expensive Fender Strats, my bullet is just killer though and it is set up perfectly, bought it used and it came like that, someone knew what they were doing, the neck is oiled nicely too, I never opened it up to see if the electronics are stock, I suspect they might not be...
@@SantanaBanana47 I clicked here to reply with the intention of suggesting the exact same thing hehe!...I purchased one about a month ago and it's awesome in every respect. Super versatile, sounds great, loud if you need it to be, light and user friendly too. And here in Canada it was only $209 before tax at long and mcquade. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT 😊
I just started playing the guitar and I said I will switch from classical guitar to electric guitar. I researched electric guitars and now here I am and torn between the two. Which would you recommend? İs Ibanez or squier
I am a noobie so i can't find the difference , which do you suggest as squier is cheaper and the squier has detune problem with tremelo , ibanez also has such problem?
I have Ibanez for about 1 year and I must say it is very good guitar for beginners, bridge is very bright for my taste and u can use tremolo for about 15/20 mins and than u must tune ur guitar but all in all I think that Ibanez is best fuitar for money u can buy
Milos Veljkovic thanks for saying that about the tremolo, wasn’t sure whether to find a guitar with a tremolo or not and rly like the Ibanez, gonna buy it as soon as quarantine is over.
About the tremolo... U must set up ur guitar nicely (set up height of magnets properly, change strings, set up tremolo and the tension of the springs on the back) for using it for about an half hour or soo... I mean it is not terrible if u know how to use it and how much to use it... But it's not great eather... All in all still i think it is awesome guitar for begginers and it is very versatile with it's 3 pick-ups... U can go for playing rock or metal to playing blues or jazz or funk...

Ibanez has deeper rock vibe. While Squier has thicker tone when it goes clean. And the winner is Marshal amp!!
Agreed
In the end, It’s all in the amp!
Who's the riff per minute 3:00? Rage Against The Machine?
@Claudette Birely cool fake accounts
I Think the same
Clean = Fender
Distortion = Ibanez
Amp = Marshall
Hotel = Trivago

And fuzz bc Rich ?
🤣
I see the amp is the winner
and the player

My $100 line 6 amp sounds the same. I can clearly hear the difference between the two guitars. Ibanez has more mids and lower frequencies

If parent thinks it's loud enough, it's definitely not loud enough for kid

Ibanez always wins because their necks are extremely comfortable and fast to play. They actually gear a lot of their guitars towards shredding and this guitar is no different. The radius is a 12 inch radius with a very thin profile, The Squire has a 9.5 inch radius so you do notice it if you play guitars with a radius about above a 12 and it has a fatter profile.
Both have pickups that are pretty shit (the reason I personally don't like them is because once you upgrade a guitar with really good pickups you notice the shitty ones.). The Ibanez does have a poplar body which will increase the mids when used as a body, which is literally what shoots those pickups in the foot. In any other guitar with an Ash, Alder, Mahogany, Pine or even Maple body they would sound decent, but in a poplar body you get a noticeable mid range boost which can take away from some music a person might play.
I respect the shit out of this video, no ads before the end and you let the guitars do the talking. Good job.
Squire Affinity HSS or the Ibanez ?
If the Ibanez it’s better, HSS or HSH ?
I would like versatility and also to last long, so what is the best one ?
Ibanez
But if you'd like more mods. I think strat would win because many aftermarket parts for a strat compared to an ibanez.
Thanks. I am guessing the tremolo arm is not very good on either? Based of your lack of use that is.
I have them both. The Ibanez is heavier with more output. I don't like the middle pickup on the Ibanez. The chinese bullet does sound good though. Very light.
Idk if i should buy the Ibanez GRX70QA or the Yamaha Pacifica 112V. Could u help me pls. Could u also tell me which is the best amp for someome who's entry-level?
I am really really really confused in both of these...please someone help me..which one should I buy among these two ? If you have read this comment please reply ....
I bought the ibanez about 3 weeks ago. Its awesome so imo go for that
@@bednar23 is Squier bullet not good for metals?
@@bednar23 I play more cleans and blues as compared to metals etc so still ibanez or not?
how are u playing a low note but it registers as high note at 0:08 I dont do lessons and i dont know what to type into google/youtube to learn. Would appreciate anyones help
My friend, those are called PINCH HARMONICS.
You can search for tutorials on the internet/TH-cam if you are interested. Thank You.
@@agnivachowdhury thanks brother, I really appreciate it. Great timing I just opened TH-cam to practice a song. I guess I’ll focus on pinch harmonics for this session. 👍 thanks again
@@22gsg80 Great! It was a pleasure that I could be of some help to you. Hope that you master those pinch harmonics soon!
I've just bought Ibanez GRG 140 Sun burst!....which is an Ibanez with the super strat body + black head stock, so I win this battle. Still gonna get that Ibanez though! If I really wanted a Strat I'd get the real Fender for £569! It's not exactly breaking the bank its only another £250 on so on top of a Squier Strat; I don't know why people bother buying those. The Squier maybe a very decent strat guitar but the name just sounds crap! Whereas..it's an Ibanez and it says so on the headstock! Even the cheap GIO line is bloody good!
you made both the guitar sounds good
4:34 what is the name of the song
It might be something he made himself
Что за соло на 1:31?🤤 умоляю скажите❤️
Импровизация, придумал во время съёмки. 😊
А что за жанр?) не блюз случайно?
Не знаю )))
Ibanez owners who have/played strats, did you have any trouble adjusting to the wider and flatter neck? I'm interested in an ibanez, but my only playing experience has been with a strat style guitar. Music stores are still closed due to lockdown, so I can't try one out.
That Marshall must have a Celestion speaker, that makes a big difference, great comparison, nice playing 👍 I'm a Fender & Ibanez guy, depends on your style & what your playing ✌️
My son just bought a Gio and I'd gig with it out of the box. Unbelievable playability. Not to mention the fantastic tone. It's a heavy metal, and hard rock, blues machine. Line 6 amp. I was blown away."
Qual das 2 segura melhor a afinação após alavancadas fortes?
Grato!🙂🤘
sebastian que otta
hi, i am planing to buy Ibanez GRX70QA but alot of internet review that it has fret buzz and goes out of tune ... what exactly is your opinion did you face those problems and how did you tackle them that makes you play it such fine ...
You can fix fret buzz by setting up the guitar correctly. You could go to a guitar repair place
Demonstrating that amps are more important?
So did you replace the dire strings provided on both? Another gripe this test was 99% amplifier.
Very nice buddy, thanks for sharing it.
nice demo! both guitars sound great, fender is cheaper, ibanez has a better look. What about playability Artyom? thank u
I have fender and ibanez so it’s convenient for me to play on this and that. but for metal i choose ibanez and for rock fender.
Can you pleas share the tabs and chords 😅
What a great video!
Thanks!
I had the bullet se years ago
..hated it. I love my Gio! It makes me want to play
I love both and have both... It's all about the look you want.
I have an HSS bullet Strat and an HSS affinity Strat. I love the bullet, play it a lot. The affinity is meh. My hss bullet gets way more play than my expensive Fender Strats, my bullet is just killer though and it is set up perfectly, bought it used and it came like that, someone knew what they were doing, the neck is oiled nicely too, I never opened it up to see if the electronics are stock, I suspect they might not be...
If it sounds good, it 100% have changed electronics
Fender?
I have both, i tend to use the ibanez for metal and the squier for punk rock
So what do you think a beginner should buy who will buy one first and then buy other when get to advanced
Just bought this Ibanez as my first guitar! Any suggestions on a good amp that's not too incredibly expensive? I was thinking the Marshall MG10?
Mustang lt25 is affordable and can do everything. It is very loud for the size as well. Very portable
@@SantanaBanana47 I clicked here to reply with the intention of suggesting the exact same thing hehe!...I purchased one about a month ago and it's awesome in every respect. Super versatile, sounds great, loud if you need it to be, light and user friendly too. And here in Canada it was only $209 before tax at long and mcquade. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT 😊
Tried both GRX70Q & HSS Bullet. And finally bought HSS Bullet as I love the tones... but mine is a hardtail as I don't really fancy a tremolo bridge.
The hardtail will probably have more sustain too.
1:31 someone please tell me the name of that song
I just started playing the guitar and I said I will switch from classical guitar to electric guitar. I researched electric guitars and now here I am and torn between the two. Which would you recommend? İs Ibanez or squier
I am in the same situation.
Cool sounds!!! Saludos desde Puerto Rico!!!!
👋👋🇹🇷🇹🇷
Good video 👍
Thanks 😊
I am a noobie so i can't find the difference , which do you suggest as squier is cheaper and the squier has detune problem with tremelo , ibanez also has such problem?
The Ibanez has a very similar bridge. It will give you problems just like the Squier.
@@adambilge2834 ok thanks
what song is that at 4:58 please help!!
Just ordered the ibanez for my daughter , [make sure all pot screws are tight ] as on any budget gee tar
Should I get the GRX70QA or the GRG170DX? The 170DX is about $85 cheaper.
Bro the song you played what's the name of it please...bro its awsome af
Its my track special for this demo
Sounds a lot like STP Lady Picture Show.
I have Ibanez for about 1 year and I must say it is very good guitar for beginners, bridge is very bright for my taste and u can use tremolo for about 15/20 mins and than u must tune ur guitar but all in all I think that Ibanez is best fuitar for money u can buy
Milos Veljkovic thanks for saying that about the tremolo, wasn’t sure whether to find a guitar with a tremolo or not and rly like the Ibanez, gonna buy it as soon as quarantine is over.
About the tremolo... U must set up ur guitar nicely (set up height of magnets properly, change strings, set up tremolo and the tension of the springs on the back) for using it for about an half hour or soo... I mean it is not terrible if u know how to use it and how much to use it... But it's not great eather... All in all still i think it is awesome guitar for begginers and it is very versatile with it's 3 pick-ups... U can go for playing rock or metal to playing blues or jazz or funk...
@@Jke-bg4yu and also sprry for my english, i know it is bad... 😂😂
Milos Veljkovic yeah thx for that 🙂
