Ibanez GRG131DX Black Flat

What we say:

At A Glance

The Ibanez Gio range is all about bringing quality guitars in at an extremely affordable price point. Ibanez still feature the logos, shapes and colours of much dearer models; a good sign of their confidence in this range. This one has a poplar body with red binding that also carries along the fingerboard for quality that's well above the price point. This also matches up with the fret markers and a great looking red pickguard. Fledgling metal players and anybody looking for a solid guitar with a 'thrash' vibe should get involved. Some sharp lines, ceramic humbuckers and red sharktooth inlays mark this GRG131DX as one for the metalheads.

Features We Love:

Infinity R Pickups

Two humbuckers are exactly what you need for a guitar like this. Although they do sound great on a clean tone, we all know that these will be pushing some high gain rock and metal riffs and that is where they really excel!

Fixed Bridge

While a tremolo system can be fun, when you are shredding away at full speed you want to keep those strings in tune as much as possible. Having a fixed bridge offers excellent tuning stability, making it a perfect choice for all the heavy riffs coming its way.

Highlights:

• A great choice for budding metal and rock guitarists
• Ibanez quality at a budget friendly price
• Striking looks with the red and black colour combination
