Ibanez RG1527 — Why It Isn’t Right For You
The Ibanez RG1527 is a very good guitar. Ask those who own it and you'll see how they rave about it. However, this guitar definitely isn't right for you if you fall into the following categories...
i. You'd have to take out a mortgage in order to buy one. I strongly believe that many musicians spend a lot more than they should on gear. And the painful thing is that manufacturers just keep churning out better ones every day. So I discourage the act of taking a mortgage to buy gear unless it's entirely a business venture. Save for it and with the time lapse, you might either fall in love with another or discover you really could do just fine with it.
ii. You are a beginner. It's generally better to use a guitar that's expendable while starting out. It's bad to discover that the way you store your guitar can ruin it permanently with a very expensive guitar.
