I'm a happy owner of a Q54 since February 2022. It's a great pleasure and comfort to play it.
Among the guitars I own - all very good indeed - Q54 is the one I play most.

[ineedadrinktoo]

I'm mostly a Gibson player. On a whim I just got the 7-string (Q547) version of this guitar. If feel great in my hands. Intonation is near perfect. Holds tuning very well. So far I'm loving it.

[amniote]

I'm just here for the music. Can't get enough of these licks.

[LeeHoMusic]

Jack, you are an absolute guitar master! so much pleasure watching and listening you playing this headless beauty. I could watch this all uhhh love it!

[chasinglatitudes]

Got the same guitar, but in the sea green this past weekend. I am really enjoying it!!!

[rayjames]

Hi Jack, killer phrasing. Superb. Ive played everyone of the quest models. The 7 string with the angled frets was the one that really got me. Great guitar

[MercutioUK]

Dear Ibanez, this with a tremolo.

Cheers!

(Great demo Jack)

Headless is kinda tempting to me because I play in incredibly cramped spaces fairly often. If it means bumping into cymbals less often that’s already a selling point

[Lukaszsiu]

I've bought my Qx-52 thanks to your review. It's the most comfortable guitar I've ever played. And it sounds so much better than my old RGA-121. I would probably choose QX-54QM because of the HSS setup, but they were and still are unavailable. My QX-52 was like the last one in my country or maybe even in Europe.

[ChuckLeone]

Sounds and looks awesome. I’d really like to see an 8 string in this line, seems likely Ibanez will make one considering there is a 7 already and they have a rich history of extended range guitar innovation.

[noemario]

Dude, I own the same guitar, I don't deserve it. You're an amazing guitarist, just found your channel you've got a new fan and subscriber.

[MaxwellDog]

The playing towards the beginning it the ultimate ad for this guitar. I wish I could play like that

[jst]

I'm an "older guy" & I'm not put off by this headless gtr in the least. You sound very nice; great neck position sounds.

[gonzalooliveraalves]

At around 12:08 it looks like you pushed the string over the fretboard accidentally, but you hit a high E that sounds perfect right there ✨

[dainhamilton]

That intro piece is achingly beautiful

[lassekalhauge]

Jesus! Your playing is just getting more and more insane <3

[rayfrusco]

monstrous! great fret work and love the guitar

[johnw]

I like it. It looks more robust than a Strandberg. The anchor point on the head stock looks heavy duty. I'm not crazy about mixing gold and chrome (silver) together. I think the appearance would be more in harmony if all the hardware matched.

I can heard some beautiful Hym there, thank you Jack 🙏 God Bless

[kelseystickney]

If you ever get a chance/want to do another little lesson video, I'd love to have a breakdown of your finger roll technique and how you incorporate into your licks. The way you do it just seems unique and particularly musical, and I think it would help a lot of people breakout of the usual shapes or "three notes per string" thing. Anyways, awesome as always (alliteration).
