This Solidbody Stunner Really Brings the Heat

If the Ibanez GIO GRG220PA1's poplar burl Art Grain top doesn't bowl you over the first time you pick it up, the sonic heat it generates undoubtedly will. This stunning solidbody's okoume body (a popular mahogany alternative) remains comfortable and resonant when rockin' all-nighters onstage, while its burl top and glassy polyurethane finish really punch up the visuals for in-person appearances. On deck, you'll find a pair of Classic Elite humbuckers and a versatile 5-way pickup selector that make it easy to dial in a variety of modern sounds — from chimey cleans to mean distortion. The GRG220PA1 sports a T106 bridge for maximum tuning stability, a fast-action maple neck with an elegant bound purpleheart fingerboard, and 24 jumbo frets for the kind of effortless shredding that helped put Ibanez on the metal map. White sharktooth inlays top off the package. Whether you're just starting or looking for another guitar for your arsenal, you get a whole lot of value with the Ibanez GIO GRG220PA1.

Classic Elite pickups give you the muscle for modern music

The Ibanez GIO GRG220PA1's two powerful Classic Elite humbucking pickups give you a beefy low-end punch without muddiness. And take it from guitarists at Sweetwater: the GRG220PA1 is ready for any modern style you need — from clean, warm ballads to face-melting metal and beyond, the nuanced tones submitted by these humbuckers are available for any musical situation you can imagine.

Fast-action neck enhances speed

A guitar is only as playable as its neck — so, it's a good thing the Ibanez GIO GRG220PA1's fast-playing maple neck feels great in the hand. This comfortable neck is capped by a bound purpleheart fingerboard with a 400mm radius and 24 jumbo frets, giving you the agility to execute fast single-note runs with ease.

Emit sonic waves with a T106 tailpiece

Dive-bombs are a staple of every metalhead's dynamic arsenal. If you're in this camp, then the Ibanez GIO GRG220PA1 is your axe. The GRG220PA1's T106 tremolo-friendly tailpiece gives you a rock-solid platform for your music.

The Best For The Price!

For only $, this thing blew me away. It is beautiful and the sound is ridiculous coming from a $300 guitar. It's high - quality and it just feels really good to play. Everything is smooth and well-rounded on the fretboard and the body is no exception. In short, BUY THIS GUITAR! You won't regret it.
Music background: Intermediate guitar player who plays live alot.
