Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? This 25th RG is built great, solid, and finished well! Reliability How has it stood up over time? RG dna is rock solid and this guitar is no different, a true beast for any musical situation! Overall Your general opinion of this product. If your an Ibanez RG fan, then you should consider adding this gem to your collection. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Wizard neck is a total badass! Excellent Dimarzio pickups, bridge, and volume and tone controls. Well balanced! Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Great tones for lead, shred, and demonic exorcisms! Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Really like the pink finish, its different and its good to be different then another sunburst or same old color options. Action How was the action out of the box? Took it out of box, tuned it, and straight away did a gig all inside of 30 minutes. How cool is that!

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Superb quality on this guitar. I was lucky not too many black flecks in the paint job, the front body finish of my guitar is flawless. The neck is an absolute dream and very comfortable for access to all frets, I notice no walnut stripe sticking out of neck that I have read some guys complain on.The tremolo is amazing, I graduated up from an older Ibanez RG with an Edge III and this Edge zero II with ZPS trem in the RG1XXV is amazingly stable and fun. Reliability How has it stood up over time? No issues so far on reliability, as it is well built and looks like it will take road & gig abuse very well. Overall Your general opinion of this product. Ibanez has done us proud with these very colorful RG1XXV's , they are very affordable considering the high build quality of the guitar. I purchased the guitar in FYE and the yello really glows nicely at night. The thing i love is every hour of teh day this guitar looks a slightly different hint of yellow. Very cool and impresses my friends that see this guitar. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Beautiful playability and feel and I am very glad I purchased this guitar as it has a very pro feel and sounds so good as I record it. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Great tone, I record it using a Pod HD500 and it works great with that. The pickups ae crunchy and clean up nice and work flawless with the Pod HD. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? As mentioned above, superb paint job & finish for the price on this guitar. Action How was the action out of the box? Perfect, did some fine tuning but action was near perfect. Next string change I may have my tech give it a once over for set up, but in my hands the set up was perfect out the box.
Another masterpiece by Ibanez!!!!

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Great quality. Reinforced neck, and no screws on back of neck for locking nut. Love that part. Great edge tremelo, stays in tune the whole show!!! Reliability How has it stood up over time? Overall Your general opinion of this product. Ibanez has done it again, great price on a quality guitar. The only thing i would change is on the neon yellow not put canary yellow pick ups, knobs and inlay on it. Although under stage lights you really can't tell. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? The wizard neck is so fast and sleek!! Feels great. The guitar is pretty light too. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Pickups are crystal clear on clean and heavy and clear on distortion. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Paint job is awesom, very eye catching. Action How was the action out of the box? This guitar is the first guitar i have ever taken straight out of the box and just had to fine tune the tuning and it was perfect!!! Action was perfect!!
