I love Ibanez guitars and basses. I own five of them atm and they run the gambit from 100 to 500. Two Gio series, two RG series and a six string Mikro series bass. I never second guessed the final product when I dropped the 500 bucks on this Jem Jr. The guitar seemed to be quality at a glance and the shipping was lightning fast so I was feeling good. The first thing i noticed were the sharp frets when i sat down to jam. Things went down hill from there. I started setting it up. The,Floyd Rose was a mess. It took hours to conquer that hill. The back side of the monkey grip had a very obvious carpentry flaw. I'm pretty sure they used wood filler on it back at the factory. Then there was the finish flaws all through the inside of the grip and random inconsistencies throughout the body. These issues may go unnoticed by a beginner but I'm well seasoned and that $h1+ doesn't fly with me. Mind you theres a factory tag hanging off a machine head the Ibanez factory inspection stamps for cosmetics, hardware and electronics. Speaking of the electronics the stock pickups in this baby are so disappointing. I own guitars that cost half the Jem Jr price with far superior electronics. I dont want to ruin the look of my Jem Jr by installing different pickups so I guess I'll just upgrade the pots and harness and hope for the best. I'm not gonna lie. I love this guitar regardless of its flaws. I just wish the price matched the product because it doesnt seem like Ibanez cares too much about anything acccept the high end price tags Ibanez is notorious for.Read full review

I've played guitar for decades and recently purchased this JEM Jr for my son. I thought it would be a decent guitar, but it has totally exceeded my expectations. The build quality is very good and it plays beautifully. Very pleased.
