I absolutely love mine. Plays phenomenally and it certainly provides the "oohs! and aahs!" from people who see it. 👍

Hi i just order me an ibanez gio in dark blue tonight i cant wait to get it

[RJW]

Seriously the ibanez GIO range has taken such a flight in the right direction the past 6 years it's crazy. And amazing. went from feeling budget metal to being metal on a budget.

[arkansasrazorback]

I have the matte black 131ex. It's a very good guitar, especially for a beginner. Ibanez necks are so comfortable and the selling point for me was the reverse headstock. I'd recommend anyone these two guitars considering there price. Add a boss katana and you are set. Now is the time to play guitar considering how good affordable gear is nowadays.

[gameon]

Here is the neck way too thick - compared to typical Ibanez models at higher price ranges. For a seasoned metal player that's an obstaclr, he will stumble over, for a beginner even more, as he will have to put more strain on his carpal tunnel, than necessary.

[rtsmudge]

For a budget metal guitar they’ve really concentrated on the best bits. Things like hardware, wiring and pickups could be replaced if needs be but it looks solid and well built. It’s very nice too!

That jack can always be fixed with a drop of Loctite :)

[imacmadman]

At this point, I think Ibanez is trolling guitarists with their model names...

[matthewearl]

Watch.. in a couple of weeks Andy will be doing sweep picking instructional videos.

[carwynvan]

Budget metal! A great range of sounds from that 5 way. I really like how they gave a different than usual selection that better suits what would actually be used for metal

[Weinmaste]

Im new to guitar, question, if i were to get this guitar and a Boss Katana amp, what wires or plug ins would I need, can someone help and recommend the products id need?

[elijahwhistler]

This finish is “ far beyond driven album “

[suetruett]

I've had this guitar for awhile now and love it. I'm not a beginner but got it cause I love Ibanez guitars. The color and as mentioned the reverse headstock sold me. Plus I use this guitar for practice at my apartment inbetween band practice and gigs I like to play this even over my more expensive Jacksons, or Schecter . Can't be beat. Great choice to demo!!!

[ozkargabowhitegluzz]

Con unas pastillas de la Seymour Duncan queda chida

[PaleCaretaker]

Still too expensive for me. Half of my monthly income. I will have to save for GRG121DX

[nialld]

I’ve just bought one there. Insane value for the money. I’ve lots more expensive guitars but this looks a real good deal.

[loupearl]

So what's the most BRUTAL passive pickup upgrade ? I allready got active EMG's on my Schecter (which I love😍) which as evwryone knows are crazy wonderfull. She is a beauty for sure, kinda been thinking of gettin an older RG ibenez...

[nialld]

Been looking at these the past few weeks. Do not need it as I’ve loads of high end equipment. But for the price it’s mental. Half decent set of pickups in it and still not a lot of money spent. By the way these are just back in stock now in Thomann and music store !

[ECSDVS]

Just ordered mine. I can't wait. I'm so excited
