Purchase: I bought the ICX-120 for 230$ at Sam Ash. I say that is an excellent price for a good-quality guitar.
Pros: The neck is very comfortable, and its large frets make it easy to play. The pickups sound awesome, and the light basswood body makes it even more comfortable. Also, the shape kicks ass!
Cons: The strap buttons are positioned akward, but I got used to them.
Quality: Great quality and construction. The guitar is sturdy, and it stays in tune for a long time. Summary: I give this guitar a two thumbs up!

Purchase: I purchased this guitar at Guitar Center in Foothill for 249.99 (269.36 with tax). I previously owned a Squier Standard Strat, and that worked fine, but I wanted something more enthralling, something with heavier tone. Then, like a tick to dog, I became attached to this guitar, seeing that it was similar to the one that Daron Malakian uses.(If you don't know who he is, then...uh...I guess you don't know who he is. Guitarist for System of a Down. Yay!!)
Pros: The high output pickups are amazing for the price. Great for playing rock and metal. Also, the ICX-120 is equipped with a Wizard II neck wich is low action. This facilitates playing fast power chords a licks. Tunes well. The Iceman has killer looks to go along with its tone too. It's not as cumbersome as a Gibson, but still is not as contoured as a Strat. I love the shape of this guitar, and the chrome hardware is definitely a plus. Oh yea, great bargain!! For being my first Ibanez guitar, i was very pleased.
Cons: The strap setup is kind of akward, but thats nothing big if you hold it correctly.. Low E string buzzes, but that can be fixed. Nothing that affects this guitars performance though.
Quality: The construction of this guitar is great!! I have not found any flaws on this guitar. Quality is great too, considering the price. Summary: This is a great guitar if you are looking for a real rock guitar with a multitude of capabilities. Evertings great!!I am very pleased with my purchase of this guitar.

Purchase: My first guitar was a Mexican Fender strat, and when I realized that I wasn't getting the low-mid tones that I wanted from that, I got the ICX-120.
Pros: For 250 dollars, nobody will ever find a better deal on a guitar. It comes with two sets of coil humbucker pickups which sound great. The way it plays on the neck is awesome, and very comfortable. The tuning mechanism is also good (some guitars have horrible tuning mechanisms, I don't get it) it gives you incredible low-mid tones that you'd never get from a strat. The cord plugin is in a nice spot too, never gets in the way.
Cons: The way the strap connects is a little funny. When you put your guitar on with a strap, the top half (neck and head) fall to the ground unless you hold it up. I suppose you could duct tape your strap so it wasn't so slippery, but I never really let go of my guitar during a song anyway, so it doesn't bother me much.
Quality: The ICX-120 has a fairly thin neck, which I really like about a guitar. Pickups are nice, tuning mechanisms are nice, kind of a weird shape, so you might need to get a different case, but it looks awesome. Summary: My current lead guitar player in my band plays on an ESP, which he bought for 700 dollars, which sounds incredible, and my Ibanez isn't as great as that when it comes to low-mid heavy tones, but I definately can keep up with him. Also, considering I spent 250 on mine, I think I did alright. Bottom line, if you're an intermediate guitar player looking to upgrade your guitar, this is the guitar for you. You can get some great sound and great playing out of the ICX-120 for a very VERY reasonable price.
