History:
Purchase: i bought my SA160 at a local music store for 200 dollars. it was used, but i could barely tell it was even touched. very nice condition. sounded great and was a better guitar than what i went in there to order, so i bought it. it was a steal.
What I Like About This Unit: this guitar plays awsome. i love the neck,its perfect size and feels great. ive played 400-500 gibsons epiphone and bc rich guitars ect and i like the neck on my ibanez a lot better. Tuning... never goes out of tune. u can play it every day for 3 weeks, and it will BARELY be out of tune. the pickups sound very nice, i love the sound. 5-way switching. 1 vol. 1 tone. nobs. they actually work and give you different sounds unlike some guitars. mahongany body, rosewood finger board, maple neck. the bidge is good as well. it has a thin body. this makes the guitar very light which i like. if u prefer heavy guitars this may not be the one for you. all of my friends that have played it are surprised how light it is compared to theirs. i take good care of it and i havent had a problems with it so far. it hasnt taken any serious hits, but on the few small ones havent scratched or dented it.
What I Do NOT Like About The Ibanez SA160: hhmmm..... nothing! ive had it about a year and i have had zero problems. i love it. awsome buy. nothing is wrong with it.
SA160 Quality: very high quality. nice job ibanez! overall constructed very well. bolt on neck. everything about it is awsome. last a lifetime.
Summary: buy this guitar! you can get it new at a guitar shop for about 350-375 i think. i know a guy from another band in my town who plays an SA160 and loves it. he bought his for about 400 i think but his is quilted maple which adds 50 or more to the price. very awsome. i have no problems with it. sounds great, plays great, built very great. as good as 500 dollar guitars. the other guitarist in my band has a 550+ dollar bc rich exclusive and i think mine as good as his. go buy one!
