Following review text is verbal representation of numerical rating information:

Ibanez's MBM1 is fairly good guitar. Not a brilliant one, but MBM1 will serve you until you decide it's time to go for a bit more expensive guitar. You will not go wrong if you go ahead with MBM1.

Some say that the average is golden, and maybe that is true for Ibanez's MBM1 as well. There are musicians who would like to see more features on MBM1, but Ibanez felt that MBM1 provides enough features for a given price and the market that Ibanez aims for. Perhaps there are better equipped guitars then this one, but MBM1 will deliver what it's built for.

The sound of MBM1 is finer than other guitars in many ways. The reason for that lays in the fact that MBM1 plays extraordinarily well through mostly any kind of amplifier which means that the sound is versatile, adaptable to various music styles and genres. Ibanez's MBM1 is easy to set up, and even easier to get used to its unique tone that easily becomes yours.

Though it could be better, action of Ibanez's MBM1 is not that bad at all. It may go out of tune when mistreated, but it's easily tuned back in no time. You won't be let down while playing MBM1's neck. Guitar does feel a bit cheaper, but it will last you a long time, if you handle it with care that each instrument should be getting anyhow.

Some might say that Ibanez didn't go all the way in providing a reliable and durable instrument, but MBM1 isn't that bad. It will serve you well most of times, though you should be wary and have backups in situations where you feel MBM1 might let you down, such as gigs and studio sessions.
