Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Very good quality guitar for $550. And solid, feels like a $1,000 guitar!! Reliability How has it stood up over time? Only had it for a couple weeks, stays in tune very well, even after abusing the Edge-II ZR Overall Your general opinion of this product. Ibanez has been my only choice of guitars! Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Feels great, with the flat neck. I love it, pick ups could be better, i plan to upgrade to either Crunch Labs or Invaders, and tone volume knob kinda in the way, but if i had to choose, would only have a volume knob. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? its decent, pick ups could be better! Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Excellent! Action How was the action out of the box? action was a bit off, but I fixed that issue!

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Everything on this is perfect, the smoothed frets make every riff seamlessly easy. The best part is probably the walnut wizard II neck. Although the pickups aren't DiMarzio crunch lab quality, you get what you pay for. Reliability How has it stood up over time? It stays in tune pretty darn good with the edge zero bridge. Not gonna LIE haven't run into a single issue with this beast. Overall Your general opinion of this product. I think the scale length is great, lots of people want 26 but I think 25.5 is still fine, considering most intonation comes within the bridge. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? It plays easy, the smooth frets can blast away screaming leads or chunky lows and highs. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? The midrange through highrange sounds great, but I believe with better pickups/strings the lows can be a lot better. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? The paintjob was flawless, and it's black wutcha gonna do about it? Action How was the action out of the box? The action is great, just like a floyd rose.

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? It feels solid, I've been a Ibanez player 15+ years, if its built anything like my RG570 then its amazing. Reliability How has it stood up over time? Haven't had it that long, but my experience with Ibanez tells me it will. Overall Your general opinion of this product. Beautiful guitar, built well, sounds and plays amazing. The only REAL issue I have with this item is it was missing the Tremolo arm even though it was factory sealed. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? The neck has an amazing feel to it. Super thin compared to other 7-strings I have played. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? The pickups seem pretty hot for stock, I will never replace them unless they go out. I run through a processor so I can get pretty much anything I want out of this guitar. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? It's black and shiny, not much else to say. Action How was the action out of the box? The action was perfect out of the box, only issue in this aspect is that it was out of tune when I got it, and the intonation had to be adjusted. I haven't messed with the Edge Zero 2 bridge adjustments yet, but they seem to be promising for heavier gauge strings, string tension, and overall stability of the trem system.
