![]() ![]() The pots and tuning bridge move smoothly and are consistent. Picking up a headless guitar has a much more stable feeling with no subtle deadstock to body weight teetering. Being someone used to holding a guitar with a headstock, you may be used to the weight of the guitar being more spread out. What I thought made this guitar feel even lighter then what it was is the compactness. ![]() ![]() I put the guitar on a scale and this one in particular weighed in about 5.8 lbs. I couldn’t believe how incredibly light this guitar felt. That, along with the narrow fanned frets made for a very natural playing experience, especially for fast tapping action. Even though the guitars i played were brand new, the roasted maple with satin finish neck had a perfectly “broken in” feel that so many guitar players desire. I loved the feel of the neck on this guitar. The specific 8 degree slant of the frets is no accident, and seems to be yet another great example of Ibanez listening and working with musicians on what they want out of a modern day guitar. One thing I learned is that this is especially natural for the hand in a more modern seated playing position with the guitar propped up high on your leg. My hand settled in on the slant of the frets quite naturally. I expected there to be more of a learning curve, but that didn’t end up being the case. I’m personally not as experienced with fanned frets in my own playing, but when I sat down with each model for this review I forced myself to handle the fanned fret version as much as possible. My Review: The Ibanez Q (Quest) series includes both fanned frets (QX) and traditional straight fret (Q) models.
