Ibanez V50 Quick Start acoustic guitar outfit in Natural (spruce) finish. There are loads of Acoustic Guitar starter packs around, but we have chosen this one and RECOMMEND it as being the BEST ALL ROUND package. We like the way it looks, sounds and feels and we feel this represents the right balance between affordability and playability. Go for a package any cheaper and you are just wasting your money, you'll be lucky to get a note out of it ! With our Ibanez Quick Start guitars we take each one and give them a thorough 7 point fitness check as follows:
Visual inspection - check for dents and scratches
Tune up - check and tune up to concert pitch
Stretch the strings - we then re-tune as necessary
Check neck angle / relief - adjust truss rod if required
Check action - and adjust if necessary
Play it - we give it a play to make sure it plays and SOUNDS as it should
Check the accessories - we make sure that nothing is missing from the box
According to Ibanez: The Ibanez V50MJPNT JamPack Quick Start is fantastically low-priced package with everything for the beginning guitarist. The V50 black gloss finish acoustic guitar features a spruce top for fantastic tone. The package also includes an accurate electronic tuner, gig bag, guitar strap, and accessory pouch Features:
V50 acoustic guitar Spruce top Electronic tuner Gig bag Guitar strap Accessory pouch Also available in Black but we only stock it in here in Natural. How does it compare?
We don't like doing this but we get asked such a lot...
Some others to consider:
Fender DG5 / CD60 package - Pretty cool cos it's Fender but it's the same price as the Ibanez and the Ibanez sounds and plays better.
Yamaha F310 - a good sounding guitar and pretty well built but so is the Ibanez and you get loads of accessories with the Ibanez !
Tanglewood / Crafter / Indie / Shine / Stagg and loads of other budget or internet only brands too - errr, I'd rather not comment. I'm sure some of them are fine, we don't sell them though, make of that what you will !!!
Hope this helps.
