Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
In my opinion, you will not find better quality in a guitar in this price range, I have played many guitars on my quest for the very best I could get without breaking the bank and nothing comes close.
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
It's excellence shines through just as much now as the day I brought it home, not even the slightest of problems.

Your general opinion of this product.
An unstopable, driving force that delivers on every front. It just might make you sound, and look, better than you really are.
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
It's got enough weight to it to let you know that you've got a weapon in your hands, but still very comfortable to have on and play. The neck is so slim, smooth and fast as is a trademark with Ibanez, with an action so low, I don't think you get lower without laying on the frets. Very easy and fun to play.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
In my experience, with a little playing around you can get virtually any tone you're looking for, from a nice articulate clean to the raunchiest, darkest metal tones you could want.

One word, Gorgeous!
Action
How was the action out of the box?
As I mentioned before, the action is as low as you could ask for, and just perfect. Very easy to play, with no sign of fretbuzz anywhere on the board.
