Ibanez RG5320C-DFM

Simply put, this is a phenomenal instrument. First, playing the guitar requires minimal effort, it practically plays itself for you. Second, the combination of a mahogany body with the DiMarzio Tone Zone in the bridge and the DiMarzio Air Norton in the neck makes for a nice warm sound that is neither too harsh nor too soft, and is thus excellent both for developing a nice rhythmic crunch sound and for cutting through the mix when playing leads. Thus, if you are looking for a high quality, warm sounding guitar that still has the possibility of standing out in a mix this is the one for you.
