    Above all, Ibanez must have one of the most extensive range of the most PERFECT Jazz guitars on the market, from affordable and really exceptionally good to expensive and absolutely outstanding.
    The "mid-price" range of the Ibanez Jazz guitars' catalogue is by far the best of the market, offering all sorts of classic "shapes and sizes" of Jazz guitars to satisfy the needs of nearly every professional Jazz guitarist ... there's simply nearly NO Jazz guitarist that I personally know (and I know quite a few) who doesn't own at least one Ibanez Jazz guitar and absolutely loves it to bits ... and that speaks a lot about how Ibanez has been dedicated to satisfy that specific "branch" of the guitar market.
    I personally have 3 Ibanez Jazz guitars.
    The 1st one was (and still is) a beautiful 1973 sunburst "Ibanez Artist 2616" that I got for XMas when I was a teen, and that my parents bought used from a Jazz teacher friend of the family, and which was and still is an absolute GEM ... I'll never ever sell this guitar, and after all these years, I now truly appreciate the quality of that "beauty", I guess that after decades the wood has naturally dried out to become really resonant and beautifully sounding, acoustically and plugged in. It's mine forever.
    The 2nd one is an affordable 2003 Ibanez AF75DTOR which came with some of the best well balanced Jazz pickups and with one of the best neck I've ever played. Period ! I remember playing one in a shop in Paris one day, then coming back the days after and literally playing tens of copies of the exact same model in various different shops of "Douai" street and "Victor Masse" street, then the rest of the shops of that part of the city, to pick the absolute best copy that I could find ... I remember the shop owner of the shop where I bought that guitar giving me a nice and substantial discount on that guitar, just 'cause he couldn't stand anymore to see me playing different copies of the same model FOR HOURS and over the span of several consecutive days 😆 ... that's how obsessive I already was about that guitar.
    I put a set of "TV Jones Classic Filtertrons" (and carefully stored the original pickups) and an original "Bigsby B3" on it, and it's my "go to" Iba-Gretsch ever since, but still is a great Jazz guitar with a lot of clarity and beautiful "woody" "acoustic-ish" amplified tone (due to the very specific slightly "microphonic" tone of the TV-Jones).
    The 3rd one is a recent "Ibanez AM93QM AYS" which is an absolutely PERFECT model of 335 type guitar, right out of the box, and that Thomann "Pleked" for me (with Jescar Stainless Steel jumbo frets) ... for the price that you get one these guitars, there is is absolutely NOTHING that compares to it.
    Well that's about it with my experience with Ibanez Jazz guitars.
    In short, you want to have the BEST OF THE BEST for every Jazz guitarist who comes visit your shop ... you better know the Ibanez catalogue "front to back", and have in your "shop arsenal" a couple of these greatest Ibanez Jazz guitars that no Jazz guitarist should ignore.
    Happy new year 2024, everybody!

    Some channels do a little unboxing of the new Ibanez line. Other channels actually go to the Ibanez location and demo the new line. With Andertons, Ibanez packs up their gear and shows up in person to showcase their new line.
    I feel like that is a real testament to Andertons dedication to bringing guitar geeks everywhere good content every. single. day. Thank you Lee and Pete for all of the hard work you guys put in.

      @@fdfsdfsvsfgsg4888 You're entitled to your opinion. You're wrong but certainly entitled. There are an almost unlimited number of guitar shops across the planet that sell a lot of gear without producing entertaining content every day.
      It is also a fact that manufacturers recognize the popularity of Andertons content and as a result make special accommodations to showcase their products via this specific outlet.
      Why it bothers you that Lee Anderton makes a living by selling gear is beyond me.

      Nice!!!
      I bought that same guitar during the pandemic 2 or 3 yrs ago, been playing for a long time but this was the first time i spent that much.($2300 cdn) There probably a little cheaper now.
      Its been my main guitar since i got it, played almost every day and you'll be happy to know it still plays great, other than having it re-set up since factory set up about a yr ago (normal after playing almost everyday for 2 yrs ) i havent had any problems. Volume and tone knobs have faded a little but ive played it a lot. 35 yrs playin and its my probably my favorite guitar so far.
      You still happy now that its been 5 months? I would love to know what someone else thinks.

      @@james-sf5yc I have a white 2008 Ibanez Prestige RG2570MZ with a maple fretboard that probably has thousands of hours of playing time and it still plays terrific! I build high end custom furniture so I ended up doing a jawbreaker splatter paintjob with a pre-catalyzed lacquer satin finish on it because it's one of those guitars that plays so well that I wanted it to look like some sort of custom shop model..
      I also have a Prestige rg5320C that i bought 2 years ago and it plays absolutely perfect! If i want to play some bar dives and never have to worry about a guitar going out of tune, i grab one of the prestige Ibanez, even over some other guitars i have with original floyds/FUtone bridges. I think the newer prestige models are truly top of the line guitars. With the quality of the prestige line guitars, I don't see any reason to buy a jcustom other than aesthetics and possibly being more collectors guitars that hold more value.

My wife said she'd buy me a guitar this year to celebrate 10 years of sobriety and I'm thinking I might have found what I'm looking for. Loved the red with 7 piece neck. Looked and sounded gorgeous.

    ACKTUALLY!!!!! the "70" in RG470 means it has no scratch plate and HSH pickups. The "DX" give you the sharktooth inlays and (i think) neck binding That sea foam looks great! the middle pickup ruins the aesthetic a bit, but gives more options. an RG420 would have just two humbuckers, and would be awesome in the seafoam!

    Ibanez never used a Floyd rose. They had their own version of bridges that had locking saddles starting with the Hard Rockr pro and the Pro Rockr trems. Then they released the edge which is licensed under Floyd rose. Then came the Edge Lopro, Edge 2, Edge 3, and Edge pro. Then came the zero series or zr trems

      @duosonic391 6 месяцев назад

      I somewhat disagree. Depends on your understanding or willingness to understand how the system works, with the string tension and adjusting the spring tension in the back. My first electric was an RG550DY with an original Edge. I was messing with alternate tunings, changing string gauges, and just changing strings in general with ease quite quickly after getting it.

    • @mylogify
      @mylogify 6 месяцев назад

    Thought I'd point out that you guys have the new Icemans listed as Paul Gilbert signature models on your website, which they aren't. Paul has the Fireman as his signature not the Iceman, although he did have the PGM600 (which was based on the Iceman) back in the 90s, he hasn't had a signature one out since then.

      @@mylogify I had a really bad experience with the trem, what with it just being impossible to keep tuned. I set it all up in tune, brought it to a gig and then it was out of tune and fretting out when I got there. Tried to fix it as best as I could but as soon as I got it on stage it just went out again. It made a beautiful 1987 RG completely useless. I'd never buy a guitar with a cheap trem ever again, because it controls 100% of the guitar. If it's locked and it goes out of tune, that's it. It's out until you take it apart.

    Pretty guitars but don't really feel any different from previous years. What I'd like from Ibanez is to offer the signature shapes outwith the signature guitars. So the old Radius became the JS model with a few tweaks, so now you can only get that if you want a JS which his specs and name on it. The Jiva too, I think a few options that maybe don't have that fret inlay but is the slim Ibanez body. Not that I dislike these artists, but you're paying for their specs which aren't what I want but I do like the body shapes.

    Question for the class:
    Love the HSS AZs. Is there any reason why HSS with 24 frets seems to be a tricky combination to find on any brand? Is there something about those extra frets with the neck single coil that doesn't fit well?

    • @sacrosouls
      @sacrosouls 6 месяцев назад +1

      maybe this combination is simply a bit less popular for 24 fret guitars? I would assume that if people go for single coil neck pickup, they want a deeper sound that is found on 22 fret guitars, since the pickup is located deeper

    • @diazzsama
      @diazzsama 6 месяцев назад

      Nah, it's because old people. They hate 24 frets. Those other hss guitars from other brands most likely come in strat shaped, which target mostly old people.

    • @alexcampos7953
      @alexcampos7953 6 месяцев назад

      I'd say mostly because scale length impacts tone. Short scales have a snappier sound, a little more open, while longer scales make the sound slightly darker. People going for single coils are generally looking for this snappier sound, so you get the beaffy humbucker and the snappy single. Thats similar to why floyd roses go with humbuckers 99% of the time... if you're doing a dive bomb or abuse the trem you need lots of gain... so you need a humbucker. The HSS gives you get the top-mounted trem that allows you to dive bomb (but no squeals) and you get the snappy singles that are great for cutting the mix in a solo, its honestly a great config.

    • @taylorhansen9290
      @taylorhansen9290 6 месяцев назад

      I guess most players prefer the tone of a neck position single coil paired with a 22 fret neck. It sounds fatter than a 24 fret since the pickup is farther away from the bridge.

    • @zxbc1
      @zxbc1 6 месяцев назад

      Single coil on a 24 fret is too far back to provide a nice fat neck pickup sound. The pickup will have to be redesigned to provide a similar sound (and even then it'll be hard) to fit that particular guitar. Then you have the challenge of also designing the middle pickup to work with that neck pickup, and so on. The position of the neck pickup just contributes so much to the sound that in order to get a traditional strat neck sound you have to do 22 frets. What I want to see is a a shorter scale guitar, something like a Les Paul scale but with 24 frets, and a HSS configuration. Maybe even a McCarty 594 scale. I wonder if it'll "solve" the issue.
