From Our Research Team:

Start Playing Right with This Quality Guitar Package!

The Ibanez IJX40 Guitar Jumpstart Basics Package gets you started playing guitar the right way! It's true — when you start out on a quality instrument that plays and sounds great, you're far more likely to enjoy it and continue to learn and improve. The IJX40 Guitar Jumpstart Basics Package includes an impressive solidbody electric guitar with three pickups for different tones, a very easy-playing neck, and a tremolo for adding expression. You also get a rockin' 15-watt amplifier (with reverb!), a chord chart poster, a gig bag, an electronic tuner, a strap, picks, an accessory pouch, and a cable with the IJX40 Guitar Jumpstart Basics Package!

What makes the IJX40 Guitar Jumpstart Basics Package such a value (aside from the fact that you get everything you need in one affordable pack) is that fact that you start out on a guitar that sounds great, plays great, and will still be great to play long after you've learned how to play. This solidbody electric guitar features a lightweight, resonant basswood body with cutaways that let you reach all the notes on the comfortable maple neck/rosewood fingerboard. This instrument is made to last, too; it includes quality tuning machines to keep you playing in tune, while its FAT 6 tremolo bridge allows for impressive whammy effects.

The combination of two single-coil pickups and one humbucking pickup means you can get a ton of tones out of this guitar. Switch easily between pickup combinations for everything from clean, clear sounds to heavy, crunchy tones. Volume and tone knobs give you further control. Ibanez gives this guitar the same individual inspection and setup as they give to their most expensive instruments, so you know it will play its best right out of the box!

Having a great-sounding electric guitar means very little if you don't plug it in. That's why Ibanez included a very capable 15-watt amp in the IJX40 Guitar Jumpstart Basics Package. This amp gives you the controls you need to dial in great tones without taking up a ton of space; it even includes built-in reverb. It's the perfect way to get started playing! Ibanez also included headphones, so late-night practicing is no problem. This package has all the accessories you need to get up and running: a strap, a cable, picks, a gig bag, a chord chart poster, and an accessory pouch. An easy-to-use electronic tuner keeps you on-key while you learn.

Fantastic Starter Package

by Angel from Summerville, SC
January 9, 2011
Music Background: Hobbyist
I bought this a couple of years ago as I was looking to diversify my knowledge of musical instruments. I thought this package would fit the bill, and it has!

The guitar was in good con... read more [+]dition, a couple of imperfections on the paint and a little adjusting of the strings to kills the buzzing. The pickups are bargain based and it is understandable, my daughter finds it funny to pick up radio stations as far as Cuba with the volume control all the way down. I do not find it amusing, but it only happens when the guitar is connected to the amp, as the noises are not there when I connect to my interface to record on my DAW.

Speaking of the amp, this combo is great for starters as it gives you a basic overview of the controls you are going to encounter on any amp. For everyone else, the may find it's not for them.

The instrument cable was very noisy, that one I have to toss out and use another cable.

The educational materials (especially the DVD) were very good and make you feel more comfortable to use the instrument. I'm no Slash or Satriani, but now I can play guitar and do some riffs!

This package is really good for its intended purpose, to help novices get into electric guitar.
