I had a grg120bdx and then modded it to have a floyd then eventually filled those cavities to turn into a string thru hard tail with a hipshot bridge and added guyker rail pickups then refinished it with a relic yellow finish. This guitar still shreds and sounds spectacular. Gio Ibanez are a step above in “beginner/intermediate” budget guitars 👍🏼
Nice preamp mod… sounds great man. Hey by any chance are you playing with heavier gauge strings? If so what size are they and how high do you have the low/high side of your neck/bridge pickups set to? I love this guitar. I purchased the very same one two years ago. Got rid of the stock strings and threw some PARADIGM NOT EVEN SLINKY 12-56 gauge strings on it and did my own proper setup for the change in string gauge. All I have to say is the guitar sounded beautiful when I brung it home…. But in drop C it sounds SOOO MUCH NICER!!! I have been thinking for a while now I wanna change the pickups out for something different. Just over all nicer quality pickups. And I’ve been giving some thought into changing the tuning pegs/machines as well. I don’t often have issues with my strings slipping too far out of tune… but they ones I want to put on the guitar with the price of pickups would bring the upgrade cost up to about a little more than half of what the guitar cost me. But if you could choose a different upgrade on this guitar other than the pickups… what would you recommend?
It's got the "Het-Set!".....Yeah, that's the ticket! For sure you'll sound just like that, if you buy a set too!!! 🤘🤘 Oh, and your fiance just proved why she's the; "Top Contender!"😉 (Ya know you have to keep that guitar until judgement day right?) -just saying...........
Beautiful black binding on the body.
Agreed. Sets it apart.
I was hoping the black version would have a white binding but it doesn’t. It’s cream like the rest of them :/((((

Great deal for an already modded mod platform. Hearing a lot of good things about the new GIO line.
Cool guitar. With all the upgrades it looks like a steal.
Wow I gotta pull the trigger on one. Thank you so much for some new riffs/style. I’m so tired of chugs with v30’s. You brought some soul into it!!!!

A guitar is only as good as you want it to be my friendo...
Who added the keys in your mix?
In the intro ?
