It looks like an Ibanez GRG140-WH: www.ibanez.com/products/eg_detail18.php?data_id=257&color=CL03&area_id=3&year=2018&cat_id=1&series_id=9 It's very affordable: www.thomann.de/de/ibanez_grg140_wh.htm But it comes with ghosts, apparently…
5:36 to 8:20 was awesome. A little Gary Moore-ish mixed with Buckethead sound. . Don't know if it's a song or original, but it's very cool sounding. Great playing. Funny dude too ! : )
I bought an Ibanez GIO GRX40 for 99.00 AUD about 50 gbp from a pawnshop. It had a note on it "Missing 1 string and the back plate. LOL i bought it and replaced that nasty missing string.
@@clementquiver5777 i think grx40 is more like bullet strat or yamaha pacifica012v from what ive seen This ome on the video seems WAY cooler and better, also more expensive
I got the GRX40 in black for $70. It was 2nd hand and had rusted strings-pretty much never played. I do prefer this one, mainly for the 2-point tremolo.
I have one with 2 Humbuckers and single coil in the middle. Neck is nice, too. Very happy and a bit surprised how good it is for an inexpensive guitar.
...lets see 5000 subscribers at one dollar a head so you can keep that lovely ibanez and continue treating our ears to your Amazing playing!...come on dave I'm in!!...👍🏻💥🎸
i know this video is a little old, but im looking into buying my first guitar to try to teach myself. Would you recommend this one or the schecter sgr c-1?
I can't HELP but to agree with most reply-ers here, who praise your playing of these riffs (most of which, almost "demand" that tightness you've brought to the party...!!).... My main reason for comment here, stems from the surprise I got, upon hearing your riffs/tone (and upon seeing how you achieved them.... It reminded me strongly (not to mention surprisingly), of what I can get on occasion MYSELF, when implementing a chain reminding me of yours.... I.E. Playing that heavyweight guitar you do, when you engage your MXR equalizer-pedal, it immediately calls to-mind what I can spit-out an amp, by running my Epiphone Les Paul into a Boss "GE-7" (eq-pedal), and the MXR "Fullbore Metal" (which contains a noise-gate, AND a sweepable-mid function, which when engaged, offers-up that elusive SCOOP we're talking about here !!). If you're not bored-to-tears yet (or just outright 🥱ASLEEP, by now....😊), thanks for reading, and cheers again, to your playing & tone !!! 💯🤘
@@thedavesimpson hello dave i xante to buy this guitare but I don't now what model is this exactly ther is a lot of grg can you help me .. thank you am big fan
I just now purchased my first ever Ibenez, used Gio solid black. My only concern is how the trem is and if after hard playing if it stays in tune. Guess I'll find out soon.
I used to own an ibanez strat in maple and black back in 1983 , I still have a photo of me holding it , cut off denims, all the usual , but for some inexplicable reason sold it , any way have just started playing again as stuck in the house , so I'm in the market for a new guitar and amp , so ibanez are top of the list . Last thing, I've seen the guitar I owned on eBay for nearly 800 quid ! Should have kept hold of it !! 🙁
I just bought one of these (Black 24 fret) and looking up if it was worth it. I play with a Line 6 stereo amp. I paid $299.00 out of the door. What I need to know is mine is two double coil humbuckers. It shouldn't make a difference, right?
I know this video is old, I'm thinking of picking this up as my first electric, it's either this or a higher end jackson but I just love the look of this one, if I slapped some new pickups into it do you think I could get a really clean sound? I love clean sounds :p
Hi Dave what do you think of ibanez grx40, i like my grx40, the neck of ibanez gitar is Very good nice hardrock sound Very good in the mix the sound get true in the mix i play daily on my ibanez grx40 its my favorite gitar.
Awesome stuff man. I'm a little curious though, if I were into Neo Soul type music also would I be able to play that on this guitar? Sorry if this is a ridiculous question.
would this be a good guitar for heavy metal like Metallica? I play a lot of Metallica and Metallica style and I'm really looking for the right sound I know it also comes from the equipment but my amp pedal etc are perfect it's just my guitar doesn't have that sound that I'm looking for
I have one in my closet, but, I have to wait till my daughters give it to me for Christmas. I have a 73 L.P, copy, no serial number, which I am very fortunate to have, but I wanted something with a very different style . I cant wait. I feel like a kid. lol Good review.
I have a Gio strat and it’s just great to play. Bought it used from someone who knew guitar much better than me, and I love it. Until I can afford my EC Artist Series Strat this one is my goto guitar. Along with my Martin acoustic.
How does it compare to th grx40? Slightly cheaper and the only differnce i see is the 2 extra frets , painted headstock and less color options on the grg140.
Ive just picked up one of these for cheap... How does the trem arm stay in Dave? Mine just falls out! And give it the slightest wobble and it goes massively out of tune! But...I do LOVE those single coils on this guitar. 😆
Hi Dave, i am about to pull the trigger on a black one for 150€ new, does the guitar hold its tune ok? I might be using it live as addition to my SG(Harley Benton DC-Custom) is it up for playing live?
João Porto I would personally go for a squire but in all fairness either one would be perfect. there both awesome. its important to try before you buy if you can. see what feels better.
@@thedavesimpson i bought this guitare can you tel me what pedals are using and what model exactly of the amps please ? Am big fan thank you kisses from mama africa
+playAgainMe Thats quite difficult to say. For me I love his album called The End Of The Game and also Then Play On is awesome. Also anything live. He was a monster live. :)

Just got one of these yesterday , had loads of Ibanez guitars , i LOVE them , they can almost turn a "sane" guitarist into a total guitar maniac
Do they come with jumbo frets
You're playing is just great man, thought I'd say as every little demo lick or chord progression is just beautifully delivered and I love it
+Sam Wyatt Thank you very very much. Glad you like my playing. :)
Your videos are better than a triple hit of caffeine on the morning. Keep on my man.
Happy to hear and thank you for watching. : )
These are the kind of guitars I need more of in my life (but not right now). Cheap, simple and powerful sounding axes.
I love the sound of this guitar, so much so I went out and bought one. Same make, model and colour.
Awesome. They are great aren't they. :)
what is the model name/number? I can't find this guitar online anywhere. It sounds much cooler than I expected. Also, he's a fantastic player.

impeccable tones and playing. I tip my hat.
+hovercraft Artifact Thank you very much indeed. :)
I just bought a used Gio RG for $139 for my neice, it plays and sounds great!
Great demo again, Dave!
The first riff he plays is “rape me”
By nirvana
Right???
Oh yes
Great video as always Dave! You've got the best reviews out there. They're always so entertaining!
+TheColourExplore Thank you so very much. :)
A great Amp will make any Cheap Ass Guitar sounds amazing. 1love

Now that i go back and watch these old videos you can tell that the new camera is AMAZING. Good investment, Dave..... and Jo. 😊 👍
i know this video is a little old, but im looking into buying my first guitar to try to teach myself. Would you recommend this one or the schecter sgr c-1?
I would recommend this one over the Schecter but if you can. Try both and see which one you prefer. :)
Good 🎸👍🤠
Hi Dave, what pedals were you using with this guitar to get the sound you had at 5:48-8:17I really liked that.
I was only using the amps reverb and overdrive channel. Other that theres no pedals. :)
i keep replaying 6:34 - 8:18 . its so breathtaking
I agree, I think it’s one of the nicest things I’ve ever heard on guitar
He was playing a bit of Andy Timmons "Electric Gypsy"

Hey Dave. It's a Ibanez GRG140 WH?
Thats the one. :)
Were you playing a song at 6:32 or just freestyling? Anyone know what he was playing there?

Appreciate the aic and satriani covers.👍 good sound
Thank you very much. : )
thank you man...nice sound i really enjoined the quiet part...
Hello, did you use reverb stuff to get this effect 6:34 or can this effect be adjusted in the guitar itself?
Its just reverb.
Shame, why can't you keep it, are you after something else? 🤔 great playing and love your wackiness.
It’s funny restumbling upon this video as I have just bought the same guitar from cash converters for 64 pound. Can’t wait now
Dude I just bought one of these and you are a bad ass player.
would this be a good guitar for heavy metal like Metallica? I play a lot of Metallica and Metallica style and I'm really looking for the right sound I know it also comes from the equipment but my amp pedal etc are perfect it's just my guitar doesn't have that sound that I'm looking for
It would be great for that stuff yes. :)
What GIO series is this? It looks like the GRX40 or maybe 140? Not sure
I don’t remember. Sorry.
I’m definitely considering buying one of these for my next guitar
I have one in my closet, but, I have to wait till my daughters give it to me for Christmas. I have a 73 L.P, copy, no serial number, which I am very fortunate to have, but I wanted something with a very different style . I cant wait. I feel like a kid. lol Good review.
Thank you very much. : )
Whic one better, this GRG140 or GSA60? or you can recommendation me other guitar at same price range?
I resonantly got a ibanez gio in silver burst and i agree it is a great guitar
How is the tremolo? Does it stay in tune when used for light and heavy use?
It does indeed. I really loved this tremolo. : )
I have a Gio strat and it’s just great to play. Bought it used from someone who knew guitar much better than me, and I love it. Until I can afford my EC Artist Series Strat this one is my goto guitar. Along with my Martin acoustic.
And i was just thinking before that last riff “he sounds kinda like andy timmons” lol
como se llama el tema que empieza de 1:40
Alice In Chains! Yessssss! hah sounded great man. class playing as usual!
+Jared Hind Thank you very much. :)
AIC.... Awesome!
Indeedy. :)
How does it compare to th grx40? Slightly cheaper and the only differnce i see is the 2 extra frets , painted headstock and less color options on the grg140.
Ive just picked up one of these for cheap...
How does the trem arm stay in Dave?
Mine just falls out!
And give it the slightest wobble and it goes massively out of tune!
But...I do LOVE those single coils on this guitar. 😆
Hi Dave, i am about to pull the trigger on a black one for 150€ new, does the guitar hold its tune ok? I might be using it live as addition to my SG(Harley Benton DC-Custom) is it up for playing live?
It does indeed hold tune really well yeps. Awesome guitar. :) I miss mine. : (
Dave Simpson Thanks for the info, i will get one :)
good stuff again Dave, love the Andy timmons song. you remind me of jasper carrot Dave, 👍
Thank you very much and odd you should say that. I get that a bit. Haha. :)
What you played on 2:30 is beautiful, man...beautiful. Is it from any RHCP song?
I'm juts messing about here but thank you very much and happy you liked it. :)
Hi dave, this guitar or the squier bullet strat?
I would have to go for the bullet myself but i did love this ibanez. :)
found one on ebay without the pick up thingy as a beginner is it essential if so why doesnt it come with one?
What did he play at 3:18 ???
Rooster de alice in chains, de nada :D
Awesome single coil sounds 😁👍🏼
just bought the grg170dx, candy apple, i love it!😊
I wanna play that tune @6:35. What song was it?
Its just something i made up on the spot. :)
Dave Simpson it sounded sweet and sad at the same time. Very heartfelt.
Cool! very good that guitar :)
Thank you very much. :)
My Mrs bought me one of these for my birthday.
Believe it or not they are under £120!!
yeah good, no probs
how much did it sell for eventually?
I don't remember now sorry. Wish i still had it to be fair. : (
Those amps tho!! Love it.
Thank you very much. : )
Hi..how about tremolo..is it stay in tune..?
If you lock it down to the body so it only dives its great. Floating the trem is a bit iffy.
@@thedavesimpson thank you so much friend..☺️
8:27 what is that riff?
Its Andy Timmons - Electric Gypsy. :)
+Dave Simpson cheers you lovely legend!
Can you teach me your ways
I might get this guitar to get into modding, but it already sounds great
what did u play at 2:00????? love it
curious because i just bought myself a ibanez gio GRG121DX metallic grey sunburst
I was just playing about. :)
Great video, beatiful riffs, how is the tune stability ?
The tuning stability is great.
Hey Dave what amp are you using I bought the guitare am waiting your answer about the amp to buy it
I'm using a marshall MG 100 hdfx here.
@@thedavesimpson i live in france I didn't found that ont i found just the marshall MG100 HGFX is it the same dave?
Sadly its not. Failing this go for a boss Katana. :)
@@thedavesimpson am so upset dave😔 can you advise me what amp should i buy for clean tone's my budget its 250 dollars
Sorry to hear you have to sell it,could tell you got on well with this guitar
+Johnathan Jordan Its a bit naff. I just hope it goes to a good home. :)
Is this ibanez grx20 gio for like 250 bucks? Also, how many frets does that guitar have?
love the guitar ! thanks for checking the wide range of tones also with pedals 🎸😄
keep rocking
Thank you and shall do my best. :)
3:30 AIC Rooster
hey from which song was the first riff you played, it sounds awfully familiar but I just cannot remember, wasn't it something from john?
never mind, she looks to me 😁
+Nikolai Megdanov Its a Nirvana song called Rape me. Grim title. Great song. Thank you for watching. :)
+Dave Simpson whaaat, it actually sounds a lot like RHCP's "She looks to me" only its faster
How is the action distance for this guitar? And also, is it suited for beginner players?
On this guitar the action can be very very low if you want it to be. Its a great playing guitar and i would highly recommend it for a beginner. :)
Dave Simpson thank you! Would you take this over a Squier? Or better, for a beginner what would suit best, the gio or the squier?
João Porto I would personally go for a squire but in all fairness either one would be perfect. there both awesome. its important to try before you buy if you can. see what feels better.
Dave Simpson thank you thank you thank you for your attention and time, you were very helpful to me!
