Budget-line HSS electric guitar, still better than today's new stuff, made in Indonesia
This is an early 2000s Ibanez beginner level guitar, but it's been well-maintained over the years and plays great. Surprisingly, this guitar does sound fairly nice too, so it could be something that you could rely on as a backup for gigging.
Ibanez is known throughout the world of guitar players for making fast necks and that's why I recommend them to everyone that asks me what they should get for their first guitar. Those fast necks make the guitars easier to play and the beginners are less likely to get frustrated and stop playing after a couple of weeks.
Unlike the earlier generation RX Series guitars, this one probably isn't worth putting any money into, but the HSS pickup configuration still makes it versatile sound-wise and it plays nice enough that you'll get back what you paid for it. $100-$150 for this model is a fair price, easily the best I've played from the Gio line.
Thanks for looking, more high-resolution pictures here.
