Ibanez: SA960QM (owner's take)

So the Ibanez SA960QM was my final acquisition for 2014. It's in tip-top condition (or so I thought) but I bought this in hurried circumstances; the store was crowded with Xmas shoppers, everyone was trying something at every available amplifier, noisy was a polite reference of the situation. When I brought it home, it was only then that I heard the fret buzzing across the neck at the 15th - 22nd frets for virtually all strings. Some work had to be done to the neck, some frets had to be hammered in place & saddles were re-shimmed; it took longer than necessary because there were no ready spares. I had to improvise with aluminium foil (rather happy with my problem-solving skills at the end of it all). Despite being frustrated, I was OK with how things turned out in the end considering it managed to adapt to my low-profile action.

Moral of the story- if the circumstances are affecting your pre-purchase instrument scrutiny, you are better off buying on another day.

I have other purchases prior to this one & that's for other blog entries before 2014 ends, of course.
