GIO Ibanez... Heard about it?
Hello there, this post is after my post of asking suggestion on which brand of electric to buy. Now i make a decision already. i going to get an ibanez. Luck come and i found out my friend's friend is going to sell his GIO Ibanez for some good price.
He palyed guitar for 5-6 years and he said that even His GIO ibanez is quite cheap in price but then the quality is high which mean he GIG a lot with that GIO Ibanez. He used to train/jam with that guitar too...
the reason why i post this thread because when i go ibanez official website. I see all those RG prestige , S, Z, and etc but then i din see any GIO...
Now i wanted to ask for opinion on what GIO model is it...personally i try it out at his room and it product very good sound. so can i hear more about GIO ibanez from u guys out there who knows it? if i am not mistake its GIO-007

personally I think that the mid range series is better than the GIO's. But they're good to start with if you don't mind the tuning stability issues (only if it has a tremolo). Mid range (RG seris only) have a floyd rose licensed trem while the GIO equivilents only have a SAT pro bridge.
Can't wait for my S470 though!

They get good reviews for a low end axe. A good bang for the buck.

GIO's include several lines (check this link)

It is a budget line and many say the quality is inconsistent, which is probably true, but for most beginners it's more than adequate. I've played a lot of AC/DC on a GAX and it is great for that.

seriously i am new in electric. i just plug in and play for a few month and i din even realise that i dont know anything about electric guitar. i dont really understand what is tuner in the electric guitar. and what is bridge?? what is pickup? pickup is the electro-magnet coil right? but then the does it differ in quality wif low end and high end electric guitar?
i have to ask so much is because i am trying to learn more about electric guitar so when i got into the shop.i can know more about it and i wont get cheated by the those who promoting guitar just wanna earn my money and they dont even explain to us what is what..

This link may help you understand the various part of the guitar. Just scroll down to electric guitar and there is an explanation of every part of the guitar.

If youre not going to whammy abuse You shouldn't get the 370. I only got the 370 because of the tuning stability.
