Stage presence. Some guitars just have it and the Ibanez GRGR221PA GIO is one of them. Bringing high-end Ibanez craftsmanship to guitarists of all abilities the GRGR221PA features a pair of searing IBZ-6 pickups. The hardcore high-output bridge humbucker is ideal for raucous riffs while its counterpart at the neck provides a smoother sound thats just made for foot-on-the-monitor lead lines. Its ultra-playable maple neck is perfect for comfortable chord changes. Meanwhile a striking speedy purpleheart fretboard makes for slick soloing. But its the GRGRs Poplar Burl Art Grain top that truly steals the show. Its Aqua Burst wood grain finish along with the matching headstock sharktooth fret inlays and slick black hardware ensure all eyes – and all ears – will be on you.
IBZ Pickups Straight from the top. The GRGR221PA GIO comes equipped with a pair of blistering IBZ-6 pickups. Based on the IBZ pickup sets found in Ibanezs top-of-the-range models these high-powered humbuckers provide all the grunt you need for a crushing metal tone while retaining enough clarity and definition to let every note of every chord shine through. The bridge model offers a pleasing mid-range push thats just crying out for crunchy distorted chords. The neck unit however gives a rounder fuller tone with a beefy low end and twinkling treble. This is ideal for soft clean tones or creamy solos. Switching between the two couldnt be easier with a three-way blade switch that also offers a killer combined sound at the middle position – the best of both worlds. GIO Series The GIO Series was designed and developed by Ibanez for guitar players who desire the premium-quality of Ibanez instruments but in a more affordable package. Not only does this range of guitars look and perform better than everything else in their price range but their rigorous inspection set-up and warranty is identical to Ibanezs signature models. So if youre looking for a powerful guitar which suits players of all levels then look no further than the Ibanez GIO.
