"GIGER SERIES IBANEZ...Looks awesome. Plays great... a must have for the guitarist that appreciates art,form and function"
I have already bought 3 guitars since i got the GIGER...2 Jacksons and a Dean.
Sound
The sound of this axe is great but still has that signature Ibanez sound,wich is good but slightly lacks that heavy(from the bowels of hell) crunch naturally.
Ease of Use
Very easy to play but wen looking down at it,it's hard to visually see where you are on the neck because of the faux mother of pearl inlays in low light,you cannot see the dots on the neck.
Quality
there is a carbon (pimple) on the neck of my guitar but i wont call it a flaw....i call it a one of a kind.
Value
Great value, being that it is a HR GIGER series

"Marvel, But I'd like it without The HR.GIGER design"
Forever.
If it was stolen i'd probably return to my old guitar because I wouldn't have enough money, but as soon as I'd get enough I'd definately buy it again (even though it's limited and by then it might be gone forever)
Sound
Very very clean and full, with distortion it still remains crisp and you can play clear solos but also heavy metal.
Amazing
Features
It includes a hardcover case with a Hr GIGER design, or so I've heard and it's one of the best guitars I've encountered
Quality
Tremolo was loose, but everything else was a dream
Value
I think part of the price
Manufacturer Support
All sites show that the guitar has two pickups, even though it has three. >: (
Couldn't find a support address anywhere
The Wow Factor
The design isn't that appealing, it's not the best of HR Giger's work.
But the sound is orgasmic

"Freakin sweet metal axe"
forever. i like this guitar but i would like a gibson les paul as well
Sound
this guitar is awesome! i can play sweet smooth riffs then instantly switch to some crazy metal stuff. this guitar has a lot of balls. it sounds great even with a cheap $60 amp.
Features
i really like the tremolo system. it's a little loose with 2 springs but it allows me to do all the crazy dimebag squeels. the neck is great for any player i prefer a neck that doesn't have a lot of depth this one is perfect.
Ease of Use
this guitar is perfect for playing. it didn't take any getting used to, i just picked it up and was instantly amazed by how easy it is to play. the sound is great u can turn down ur gain and play easy stuff, then crank it up and it sounds like a sick metal axe.
Quality
this guitar is perfect right from the factory no blemishes, or loose parts. the only thing was that my E string was fretting out when i was holding the it down on the 1st fret. but i just adjusted the height of the bridge and the tune lock. this guitar will last forever
Value
it's deffinetly worth it.
Manufacturer Support
i haven't had to contact them because everything is okay. but this guitar isn't on the ibanez website and it pisses me off.
The Wow Factor
it's nice if ur in a serious metal band. but it looks out of place when playin anything else. the graphic is crazy
