Frequently Asked Questions
The Ibanez T-bar system is surprisingly good – less 'tinny' than many budget options, but still not a true studio-quality sound. It's very usable for live performance and basic recording.
The maple neck has a fairly standard profile; it's not overly thick, but it’s also not as slim as some Ibanez models. Players with very large hands might prefer a slightly wider neck.
Polyurethane is very durable and resists scratches well, but fingerprints and smudges will be noticeable. Regular cleaning with a microfiber cloth is recommended to maintain its appearance.
