Ibanez GRX120: Price

Folks, the 2024 GRX120 is now available at Swee Lee, prices are depicted above. I'm of the opinion that the GRX120 is one of the better entry level guitars out there & it's not just in the Ibanez domain. I was expecting a $300+ listing after the 2024 revision but this is a likeable figure for many of us who are starting out & do not wish for something extravagant / excessive.

Vivid & phantom

I believe Ibanez is first to leave the NAMM '24 fanfare behind. These GRX models are new for February. 

That's right, they painted the neck as well so it's a very flushed finish which looks classy. This finish is known as Vivid Red.

The other new finish for February is the Phantom Blue.

Ibanez: May update

Ibanez is re-highlighting the lefty RG550 this May (Genesis Series). Yes, re-highlighting because this was done back in 2018. This time, only the yellow version is offered. Keep in mind that the Genesis range is entirely removed from the Japanese market, the J-Line took over proceedings when it comes to Prestige-type credibility & affordability in mind.

Lately, Ibanez had been making their GIO models appealing. Maybe not so much of features, more of the looks. This GRX120 looks stunning in this blue with a pair of covered humbuckers.

Verdict: Fair. I would have deemed this May adventure boring save for the fact that the lefty RG provided considerations for the southpaws among us & the entry level Gio models are making themselves appealing for the money.
