If this guitar was made by Gibson this would be a Silverburst but Metallic Grey Sunburst is what Ibanez call it, bit of a mouthful but there you go. I like the look of this new series of guitars in the Ibanez 2010 range, it has a little bit of a Music Man Petrucci model look about it with that sloped top and bottom edge which accent the cutaways and make them look pretty sharp as do the V Mark fretboard inlays. The only problem is the Edge III trem rather than the original Edge or Edge Pro which is to be honest not the best trem in the world, but then this is not the top of the line model in this series so you can’t expect all the trimmings for the reduced price.
