Amazing quality and playability
This is the perfect nylon electro acoustic. The thinner body feels great and suits those more used to electric guitars. The built in tuner is simple and very handy, the pick up sounds amazing and it plays like a dream. I have wanted to get back to classical playing for a while and this guitar feels like it should cost double.

Expectation met!
Very playful and for my musical needs soft enough, but not too soft guitar. Maybe a little quieter due to the small resonant box, but connected to a very small home amplifier with the possibility of adjusting the tone, it gives an enviably warm and satisfying sound.An instrument that met my expectations!In addition, a very nice musical instrument for the eye, very high quality finishes.

Poor built quality
It would've been a great guitar, unfortunately the built quality is poor for the price.In some parts you can even see the glue, like it was made by a 5 year old.The sound is good, but it's losing tuning over a few days.It's a shame, I would love the guitar if it was built with more care.

Excactly what I was looking for.
I wouldn’t usually buy a guitar without trying it out first but as this was a Black Friday deal and on Amazon who have always been really good if I needed to return or reject something I took a chance. I’m glad I did. Bearing in mind this is not a really high end guitar but a mid price, I’m really surprised. Usually when I buy a guitar even from a dealer I need to make some adjustments, usually a turn to the truss rod and alteration to the action but this one was just fine straight out of the box. Plays very nicely and a good sound when plugged into an amp. Only one drawback, no studs to use a strap but that can be overcome with a couple of pounds and ten minutes DIY. To sum up, five stars and very happy.

Not the quality I expect from Ibanez
A high polish soundboard should arrive blemish free, this didn't. Maybe I was being picky but, a mark under the surface finish and surface scratches around strings is unacceptable. As is a rattle on the D string probably something loose inside. If I hadn't paid £220+ I might have lived with it and sorted the rattle but, meh.Shame because, it's a truly gorgeous looking thing but, not enough difference to my trusty Stagg electro-classical for the extra £160 it costs.
