Sir,Ibanez Gio good or not for recording?if ok,i Want buy Ibanez gio for recording my song,i'm using home studio,i Want find budget guitar for recording,please give me info
i've recently tried the grg-121dx. For the money it was the most versatile and comfortable to play guitar. though the pickups are stock they are also just fine for the clean and crunch. I was impressed
A video that I really needed. The GRG lead playing on clean and dirty sounds more up front and a tad more refine in tune compared to the GRX at least for my ears .
Ok so went through the comments and what nobody talks about is the fact that the GRX is more versatile. Why? The single coil in the middle allows you to obtain Strat sounds in positions 2 and 4 (neck+middle and bridge+middle),. These can be achieved with a clean amp and basically you have 2 guitars in one as I see it. Humbucker sounds and Strat cleans if you require - with a coil tap on the humbuckers you can achieve even more tones.
I have both the GRX and GRG and this video is definitely helpful to know that my ears were not deceiving me. The IBZ pickups have a bit less gain to them, but they play much cleaner than the pickups on the GRX model. Both are good sounding axes for the price.
Bro I don't know anything about electric guitar...and i want to purchase my first electric guitar ..I don't know what's a fixed bridge and tremolo bridge...just tell me which one should I buy
@@nvjohansson9741 Lol, phone... Listen to this on proper speaker or headphones! The difference is clear! IMO the Infinity pickups on the GRX were much better than the dead sounding IBZ on the GRG.
Great demo, well done, glad you're well! My first guitar was GRX70, 20 years ago, but they used lower quality pickups and tuning machines, and guitars were just black. Surprised to hear that this GRX70DX sounds fuller and richer (especially clean) than the GRG, and it looks beautiful. I believe they change the wood for the body as well, it used to be agathis, now it's poplar or basswood, not sure. Anyway I think the GRX offers more value for the money (especially more than any Bullet Strat or so), but they are both great axes.

@@godchickla7295 Hey man do you mind telling me how it is if you bought it? I'm planning on buying the grx as well so I would love a second opinion. Please mention any unexpected features and drawbacks if possible.
Hi there, I can not hear difference between them on gain 😁, on clean yes, but I think for longer use and tuning stability grg121 is better option because its hardtail bridge. Awesome playing.
Bought one for a friend, matte black ... I was AMAZED at how good the 121DX is, I mean if you told me it was woth a grand I would believe it. And the setup was perfect out of the box, neck felt perfect, tuners worked, sound was good, the attention to detail like I have never seen on a guitar this cheap (or even more expensive ones), flawless, even the frets were shiny and polished ... crazy part, even the strings were shiny. I do not know where the catch is but it looks like they really made this model amazingly well from the get go, I just wonder if they are loosing money on this or is the skilled labor that cheap in China. And looks so freaking awesome that I am thinking of buying one just to have one, the matte black body and pickups, the contrasting bright shark teeth inlays on the superbly sanded fretboard and no sharp fret ends. Before buying this one on Thomann I have returned one B-stock Schecter C-6 deluxe, crappy fret job and sort of soft neck and an Ibanez 121SP, the one with the rosted maple neck, that had fret buzz no mather how high I set the action. Both more expensive than the 121DX, so I do not understand how these things go, maybe just luck of the draw ... hope it will stay this good for a long time.
@@laurasmrkolj5082 I've been researching Ibanez guitars for months during lockdown! Think I prefer the GRX70QA..looks better to me, and great reviews everywhere... And the price is great for what u get! Trouble is I can't decide if I prefer the red or blue now! 😆 On top of that, I still really like the mid range priced RG Series! My max budget is £350.......but to tide my Ibanez craving over for a couple months.....I've bought the bargain GRG 140 Sun Burst for £143 on Thomanns website! 😆 Couldn't resist as it's £179 through most guitar sites online!

@@creativitycell Hi, I'm also in the same ones, but I choose 121, I've been researching and I only look at good reviews .... but I'm worried about something, mine is not metal but I will buy it, it is good for beginners. Cheers
nice tone. but with overdrive dang. i understand the principal purpose of the video and recording was to demo the purest sound of the guitars and his pickups directly to the amp channels without anything modifying it. pretty cool video.
Right off the bat the black one looks killer. not crazy about the other one never cared for HSH,. looks crowded and wonky and who the hell needs a middle pick up especially on a guitar aimed at metal.
The single coil allows for Strat tones in positions 2, 3 and 4. More versatility for those who need it. If you only play heavier music and metal, stick to humbuckers.
I don't know which one to choose as my first guitar. I prefer the look of 121 and it has 24 frets but 70qa is more versatile because of pick up configuration
Honestly upgrading to the GRG121DX is probably one of the best things I've ever done. It's amazing for the price and doesn't shred my fingers to pieces with hellishly high action like my previous knockoff strat that I thought I could salvage with better electronics sure it was better than it originally was but nothing could save those dodgy frets siezed truss rod and godforsaken bridge that no amount of adjustments could get it intoneated properly.
If you had a budget of 300 Dollars, which one would you choose? Yamaha Pacifica 112V or this Ibanez GRX70QA? Is there a HUGE difference? Because I am so IN LOVE with that Ibanez and its colour scheme and will surely have more motivation to play. BUT, when the Pacifica is that much better, I would go for that one!
yamaha is an excellent choice, pacifica sound is brighter, however, ibanez is certainly more versatile, more comfortable, its hardware is better, it's vintage and prettier hahaha. Greetings from Brazil!
Well I think if you are getting only own guitar and are going to own only one for a bit, then the Ibanez is the obvious choice as it is quite a bit more versatile and also as you said, kinda just looks better and tbh you're not gonna hear that much of a difference with a good amp so at the end of the day, you should just get the one that makes you practice and play more
I have the walnut version of the grg 121 dx. I've been having issues with the guitar. I'm not the best player, and the guitar seems fine when looking at it. But the tone is horrible, washed out or bland. I've listened to recordings of other guitars and I'm aware of the differences in the electronics. But it doesn't even sound like yours which is strange. Me and my friend hear this clangy metalic buzz when I record something with it. I have raised the action quite a lot, the pickups are adjusted, the strings are still stock, the guitar is tuned.
@@Delowist I ended up changing the strings, and now it sounds a lot better. I can live with the smaller issues like noise. The buzz is less frequent now, and almost non esistent. I wanted to change the pickups to something else too. Because it still sounds much darker than most demo's including this one. I even changed the conditioner on the tone pot, it barely changed. I guess mine are just dark and a little noisy. Which a gate can fix but still.
@@alyctro8158 This is a year late, but... The height of the pickups to the strings might make it sound darker, since u said u raised the action. Also have u intonated the guitar? That might also make it sound weird if not.
@@MaximusAdonicus I will say that i've attempted doing it and i think i made things worse. I usually play in drop D or lower and the first string is always a few semitones off.
@@ArtyomReborn thanks. But unfortunately grx70qa is not available in my local stores or online portals either. Can you suggest an alternative in case I don't find grx anywhere?

Quick question. Is the back of the grx70qa purple or blue like the rest of the guitar? Edit: Does the guitar look like the because on the lighting or is it like that 24/7?
I like the sound of the GRX more, but for some reason, your playing on the GRX was choppy, like you were having some trouble playing it. Is that because you were sicker when you filmed the GRX footage?

@@baddibilshorts9533 If you want a guitar that can play basically anything, the grg isn't that good of an option. You can consider the grx or the yamaha pacifica instead. Also, 333 bucks for the grg is a really bad deal as they go for 200 bucks.
@@dakshmehan4114 im getting both for 200 ngl I don't hear the sound difference since it'll be my first but im drawn to the looks of grg121.... the higher model ranking of the grx confuses me tho
The main difference I hear is that the patterned guitar is a bit brighter, works better on some kinds of material where the matte black works on other kinds of material. Differences might be more along the lines of playability.
На мой слух на 70 датчики более высокочастотные стоят. Для тех кто хочет играть инструментальную музыку это будет шикарный вариант как первая гитара. 121 сейчас на мой взгляд более подходит для прог металла и больше для разных метал стилей. В миксе обе хороши.
Im thinking of asking for one of these for christmas, ive only been playing for a few months but really want to get into playing metal or maybe some punk. Ive narrowed it down to these two. Which should I get?
just ordered the GRG121DX. probably gonna stick with the stock pickups for a while. seem to be fine for now. in future will probably swap them with PAF pro and super distorion
@@Kineistt its pretty good. way better than expected. yeah, the pickups arent as punchy as some super duper expensive ones, but with good guitar rig settings it still sounds great. the only major downside of this guitar is that the wood of the body is super soft so you have to be very careful not to bump it and dent it because the thin layer of paint will chip right away. but if youre into used, vintage, rugged, beat up look than its not a problem. frets also need to be leveled and polished, so i'll be taking it to a luthier for some loving. over all its well worth the money for a new guitar. of course you can pick up a slightly better used guitar for the same price, but if you like new things than it hits the spot.
R these full size or kid size I'm trying to buy one but all i keep seeing is the 70qatbb an on here nobody has a tbb after the qa an I dont wanna order somthing tiny
Between these two, if you are only going to own one then the grx is the obvious choice as it can play basically everything whereas the grg is sort of limited to metally tones
the Infinity’s are definitely a little higher output. I like how the IBZs clean up but they’re lacking just a tiny bit of that ominous low end. They both sound great.
@@ArtyomReborn у 121 накладка красивая! Мне нравятся темные накладки палисандр , эбони и все в этом роде! Ятоба меня немного раздражает если честно)) поносный оттенок какой то))

i cant decide pleaseeeeee somebody help , i like trash , groove , heavy metal - crunch tones and of course blues . 70qa sounds much cleaner and bright to me but idk it cuz of setup or amp settings , 121dx ... that shape , that style .. jeeeeesus i cant get out i desperately in need . im new at this im getting a hobby and decide to learn an instrument , gonna buy blackstar id core 10 v3 for amp and a guitar . narrowed those two but cant go further :S there is no one around me knows about music or instruments that i can ask for help .
I have a GRG121DX on a FedEx truck out for delivery as I type this. Got it used on ebay for a $133 delivered. I think this one is the better of the 2 guitars. A major consideration is the 700QA only has 22 frets as opposed to the 121DX having 24.
At the time of filming the video, I was already sick with COVID. The two days after filming were terrible, high fever and all. But things are much better now. All health and all the best!

Welll you too can play like that with a little beautiful thing called practice 😁
There is an IR loader at the end. It really effects the tone. You can just get boss gt1 and mooer radar pedals and have a very good guitar tone.
That's how your guitar sounds when you have amp that costs 3x more than guitar itself

The main difference I hear is that the patterned guitar is a bit brighter, works better on some kinds of material where the matte black works on other kinds of material. Differences might be more along the lines of playability.
У меня ibanez grg121dx-wnf мне очень гитара зашла, вторая Fender squier affinity и они очень сильно отличаются, Fender кристально на чистом нравится!
На мой слух на 70 датчики более высокочастотные стоят. Для тех кто хочет играть инструментальную музыку это будет шикарный вариант как первая гитара. 121 сейчас на мой взгляд более подходит для прог металла и больше для разных метал стилей. В миксе обе хороши.
Hey man, I hope you are doing well and hopefully been vaccinated by now. Thank you for the demo vids on these two guitars. Keep rockin.
😁👍🎸⚡
Nice video...
Please bring the comparison of the GRG320FA versus the KIKOSP3... I will wait for it!
Im thinking of asking for one of these for christmas, ive only been playing for a few months but really want to get into playing metal or maybe some punk. Ive narrowed it down to these two. Which should I get?
I want an honest review on Ibanez GRG121DXL and Ibanez GRGR221PA. Which one is better! Can anyone let me know from experience thank you 😊
It uses the same pickup IBZ-6 HUMBUCKER...
If you ask me, I gonna pick GRG121 bcause body meterial MAHOGANY... GRGR221 body meterial OKOUME
спасибо. выбор как раз между ними стоял | thanks
For metal and heavy rock GRX70QA is the best option.....
Hi friend Comparision ibanez grg 131 dx please.
а SCHECTER SGR BANSHEE-6 как по звуку рядом с ними ?
I own the black one, exactly the same specs. But I can't tell the difference in sound, maybe I should upgrade my phone?
Hey!!! I'm about to buy the black one?? How's the sound and the playing? Is it easy ???
The real question i have is wich one was the most confortable to play XD
Also real good playing, gonna learn the first arpeggio lick :D
121
Quick question, what do you think about Grg170dxl in compare with this two? Please answer
You could do a comparative between grx70qa and grg221pa? Which you would choose?
hey is this the best guitar to buy in this price range? if not which is the best
CN you teach your solos please in this song
Pls
just ordered the GRG121DX. probably gonna stick with the stock pickups for a while. seem to be fine for now. in future will probably swap them with PAF pro and super distorion
How guitar?
@@Kineistt its pretty good. way better than expected. yeah, the pickups arent as punchy as some super duper expensive ones, but with good guitar rig settings it still sounds great. the only major downside of this guitar is that the wood of the body is super soft so you have to be very careful not to bump it and dent it because the thin layer of paint will chip right away. but if youre into used, vintage, rugged, beat up look than its not a problem. frets also need to be leveled and polished, so i'll be taking it to a luthier for some loving. over all its well worth the money for a new guitar. of course you can pick up a slightly better used guitar for the same price, but if you like new things than it hits the spot.
@@SternVonAfrika Ow then I'll be careful not to bump it!
LOVE THIS!! We like the blue one. ha ha ha. Cheers mate!!!
Amazing playing
Great video 👍👍
Don't your fingertips hurt when you play with a jumbo fret?
hey im not sure whether to pick the grg170dx, grg121dx or grx70qa can yall help i wanna play metal
Guys what is better a Jackson js12 or the grg/grx ???
Hey! Could you / will you do a comparison of a mid-tier Ibanez (like an SA) vs one of these?
which one is the best?
Which one suit for heavy sir??
Quantum humbucker or ibz-6 humbucker
Is the grg121dx a good guitar? Do u recommend on it? Im thinking about getting this as my first electric guitar
i like more grx70
@@ArtyomReborn Thanks, may I ask why, what are the main reasons, is the sound the main reason or something else?!
GRX2X series can be had for $100 less than GRG 121 / 221 series, nonetheless it's Ibanez too. 99.9% people won't hear the difference.
GRX70 uses Infinity R = More bite, best for metal/punk rock and funky tone
GRG121 uses IBZ6 = Less bite, warmer sound..best for classic rock genre
Как считаешь, что лучшк, Pacifica 012 или ibanez grx 70qa. Хочу поменять свою пацифику на ибанез. Не уступает ли ибанез качеством?
Ibanez grx 70qa
Hi all, just wanna know if I should get the GRG170DX or the GRG121DX. Any suggestions?
GRG121 better for heavy i think... Grx more clean and warmer
@@abangsonic Alright thanks for the advice
R these full size or kid size I'm trying to buy one but all i keep seeing is the 70qatbb an on here nobody has a tbb after the qa an I dont wanna order somthing tiny
It's full size guitars
@@ArtyomReborn thanks bro but I ordered a epliphone les paul now
the blue ibanez is the exact one im buying next year
good choice, I been playing it for 1 year and it all good so far,soon imma buy Ibanez rg series.
Артем какой калибр струн на 121 ибанезе в этом видео?
9 46
Which one of these should I pick , please help
Greetings to the pros, which guitar is best for a beginner at your discretion?
Between these two, if you are only going to own one then the grx is the obvious choice as it can play basically everything whereas the grg is sort of limited to metally tones
idk if i should get an ibanez grg121 dx or a ibanez grg131dx . Which is better?? :"))))) plz help me
There is almost no difference between these models
131 has a pickguard and improved pickups, only differences
I want to buy the grg121dx the black one but is there a left handed version?
Damn.. rip u bro, must be hard to find guitars u like ( but left handed ones)
This guitar or yamaha rgx 121 z ?
Sir recomend a amplier for grx70qa
the Infinity’s are definitely a little higher output. I like how the IBZs clean up but they’re lacking just a tiny bit of that ominous low end.
They both sound great.
What's better in terms of quality?
@Artyom, which one of these two is better overall (build quality, sound)?
grx
Which one you liked the most?? And which one is suited for all kind of music?
Grx70qa 👍
@@ArtyomReborn thanks man. I will get the grx70 with a fender lt25 for Christmas . 😁
buying the GRX70QA soon
Здравствуйте! Выбираю между jakson js12 или ibanez grx70qa, подскажите пожалуйста, какая получше будет?
Бери Jackson JS22 - она в разы лучше!
Ibanez GRG121DX Подходит ли эта гитара для исполнения металлической музыки? Metallica и Guns N Roses
они обе подходят
Главное чтоб чёрная была)
I am beginner
Whic one choice?
Ibanez grg121dx???
Yes , only 121 )
Grx70qa or Grg140 , which one is better on your opinion?
Grx70
what should i choose?
Same here
Honestly they sound pretty similar so go with looks. I personally find the blue one gorgeous
Собираюсь брать одну из этих гитар. Какую ты посоветуешь?
221
Compare ibanez grx70qa with yamaha Pacifica and bullet strat please!

@@ArtyomReborn Thanks man❤️
What's better Pacifica 012 or ibanez 70?
И все же, какая гитара по вашему мнению лучше?
В этом случае JS11 получше звучит
For me the blue one sounds more good with dister, but clean guitar the black one sounds more good.
what song is this
Прикольная свинка на столе :D
did u compose these riffs by yourself ?
yes its my riffs
@@ArtyomReborn so I guess u r playing in a famous hard rock or metal band than I don't know ? U are a genius man it's incredible
Thanks! No i not play any metal band. I planin write instrumental music. Maybe in next year.
@@ArtyomReborn nice ! Yeah ur riffs are very melodics and this Ibanez adds something special 👍 I just bought it because of u so thank u so much
which on is better
Which guitar do you prefer?
I like grx70
Мне кажется или у них звук вообще один в один? По крайней мере на перегрузе! На чистом вроде как немного разница есть!?
Кажется 😁 звук разный
@@ArtyomReborn уже 3й раз пересматриваю)) у черной немного больше низов как по мне.
Да у 121 больше низа и меньше верха , и меньше Гейна с одинаковыми настройками усилка. И чуть мыльноватая она по сравнению с grx70
@@ArtyomReborn у 121 накладка красивая! Мне нравятся темные накладки палисандр , эбони и все в этом роде! Ятоба меня немного раздражает если честно)) поносный оттенок какой то))
палисандр заканчивается и он под запретом. А эбони дорого для таких гитар. Так что всех ждёт Жатоба 😁
Артём интересно твоё мнение! Тут друзья спорили что у 121 моего ibanez датчики злее на перегрузе чем у 421? Как считаешь, и интересен бы обзор на сравнение 121 321 421
у grg121 выхлопа меньше чем у grx70, поэтому врядли он "злее" чем 421. Но в живую 121 и 421 я не сравнивал.
Мне больше Ibanez GRG121DX понравилась
i cant decide pleaseeeeee somebody help , i like trash , groove , heavy metal - crunch tones and of course blues . 70qa sounds much cleaner and bright to me but idk it cuz of setup or amp settings , 121dx ... that shape , that style .. jeeeeesus i cant get out i desperately in need . im new at this im getting a hobby and decide to learn an instrument , gonna buy blackstar id core 10 v3 for amp and a guitar . narrowed those two but cant go further :S there is no one around me knows about music or instruments that i can ask for help .
I have a GRG121DX on a FedEx truck out for delivery as I type this. Got it used on ebay for a $133 delivered. I think this one is the better of the 2 guitars. A major consideration is the 700QA only has 22 frets as opposed to the 121DX having 24.
