Ibanez Review: Iceman

Ibanez Electric Guitars



History:

Purchase: I played it in a store.

What I Like About This Ibanez Iceman: Nothing at all. I play B.C. Rich guitars. I was not impressed at all. Im not even being Buyest. I just didn't like it.

What I Do NOT Like About The Ibanez Iceman: The fret wire was to big. I tried soloing and i coundn't play near as fast as I could on a BC rich or jackson. There is this guy at school named Wes who owned an iceman, he kept putting down my bc rich and said his iceman had way better tone. I decided to test this for my self only to be very disappointed. The tone was horrable. I like a guitar that has a well rounded tone fore lead rythem and sometimes downtuned riffs. You pay to much for this thing. It is more of a begginers guitar. If you like to solo, I suggest a Jackson, BC rich or gibson.

Ibanez Iceman Quality Rating: It seemed to be constructed well. No problems here.



Review Summary: I don't wan't to knock Ibanez because I have not played to many. Only the Iceman and an other. I Still prefer my Bc rich to an Ibanez. I will have to try out more ibanezes to get a better feel for them. I know John Petrucci of dream theater used an Ibanez, so they must have some damn good guitars as well. I just can't say the iceman is all that special. Sorry Wes!
