OK guys here is the review of the new aquisition to my still growing family
first of all the color, looks like the paint has a texture but is undere the
clear coat so everything is smoth and nice, I got the grey one eventhough is a kind of blueish grey, the guitar sounds incredible the 1 1/2 inch more give to the strings a smothness never felt on any other Ibanez I ever tried, I found myself speeding on the frets so fast I couldn't believe my eyes even if the action is a tad high but still is totally impressive how broken in is the neck.
the pick ups I do not know if are Dimarzios Blaze2 or Customs or whatever else but they sound very close to my specifications(bright but not too much)
The neck is the 5 pieces Maple/Bubinga
The guitar binding (body,neck,headstock,dots) is glowing in the dark and the hardware is the powder cosmo black like in other hi end Ibanez imported here(in Italy even a 550 had this hardware)
The only thing that I can say is buy it because this is the first bundle and usually our favorite brand makes unbeliaveble first runs but thensomehow something change, little things but they are a fact.
I'll try to post some pictures but don't have a Digital Camera yet so be patient
Sincerely
Stefano
