Frequently Asked Questions
The Infinity R pickups are a step up from Ibanez's cheaper pickups, offering more clarity and a slightly tighter low-end, but not as refined as their higher-end models.
The 41mm nut width is relatively narrow, which some players may find a little snug, particularly those accustomed to wider necks found on some vintage-style guitars.
While the F106 bridge is decent, the plastic nut and budget machine heads can impact tuning stability, especially with extreme drop tunings; upgrading these parts would be beneficial.
