## Description

Ibanez String Solid-Body Electric Guitar, Right Handed, Black GRX20ZBKN

Review: Excelente le encantó a mi hermano
Review: Wow I was really impressed with this guitar when it arrived! The paint is a really deep black with a good sparkle and shimmer to it that gives it a really nice space vibe to it. The paint job was done very well with no runs or bubbles and a very solid finish that is sure to last. The fret board feels really nice under the fingers and plays very well with no issue getting notes to sound out properly. At the head of the guitar the shape is very stylish and the tuning pegs so far have held the tuning very well and adjust easy. The strings that came on the guitar are actually pretty decent for a starter set to get you playing from day one. Plugged into an amp this guitar was able to adjust the tone and volume well in addition the selector for the pick ups gives you more of a range of sound that you might be looking for. I think this is a very solid beginner guitar, it doesn't weight very much so its not cumbersome to carry around or play and its features give you a good amount to try out some different styles to play different music and really get into playing!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this size okay for 8 year old?  What else do I need to get him, like amp, cables, etc??**
A: This is a perfect guitar for an 8 year old. As far as beginner guitars go this one is one of the best I've come across.  As far as amps and cables. Youd be good with going with a cheaper amp. A cheap beginner amp would be line 6. The spider 4 model is a good one. It certainly isn't top of the line but it lasts pretty well. The Cables are up to you.  When i recieved the guitar it came with a cheap cable. I prefer live wire cables. The size is dependent on your preference. If you have a guitar center in your area the store near me offers live wire cables with a lifetime warranty included.  So you can replace broken cables if you have to for free

**Q: Dose it come with amp or cord?**
A: It does not include an amp cord, no case, no picks, and no strap. I purchased an Orange CR20L 8" amp, I highly recommend. It's small but mighty and definitely better quality than the beginner/bundled amps from Fender or Peavey. Guitar straps for beginners are reasonable ($6-25). I play for my own pleasure...so I bought a guitar stand instead of a case. Have fun jamming!

**Q: Does this guitar work with rock smith?**
A: Lol I'm buying it for that reason to. Yes any guitar should plug in and work on rocksmith

**Q: Does this guitar come with a starter kit (amp and cable)**
A: No it is just a guitar. If you want an all in one solution you should look into the Jumpstart, those are the packages. Try searching for the IJRG220Z
