Just make sure you try a Fender & a Yamaha before you buy. *I don't think the Ibanez acoustics are at the same level as the electrics, but that's just me...

I'd been once considering an AEG10 small body and it was a huge disappointment playing one (considering that I'm an Ibanez fan even!) Only good thing about it is, well, it looks like a more expensive guitar. But in the tone department it's seriously lacking. To put it mildly, it sounds like cr*p with no wood tone!

In Australia, I could get a Maton EM225 for a little bit more, and it sounds infinitely better!

IMHO, I'd be hard pressed to even look at Ibanez accoustics again. My 2 cents.
