Details & History

This is my SZ-320, definitely one of the best guitars I played so far. It's obviously not made for shredding given the lack of a tremolo system and the not so thin neck but it's a great rhythm guitar and can hold it's own when it comes to blues. The pickups are both extremely good giving a vast palette of tonal options, quite surprising for stock pickups in a relatively cheap instrument. The controls are really well positioned and even that fragile looking pickup selector that didn't convince me right away soon proved to be perfect since it's quite hard to hit while playing allowing a more safe use of the middle and neck positions. The bridge is quite good too, the string-through-body gives a better resonance and sustain and the tuning is very stable (i once tuned down a step and a half with a set of 009's and it didn't lose the tuning for about 2 hours of constant playing). The neck feels very strat-y which is quite good if you have small hands like me and have trouble with the Gibson like fat necks that usually go with guitars similar to this one. As far as looks well, the pictures speak for themselves...ain't she a beauty? If I had to find a weak spot well I'd say the same one all S type guitars have, the 22 fret only neck. I wish someday Ibanez would make 24 fret S guitars.
