It has a lovely low playing action and stays in tune superbly. It has two Ibanez DJX single cool pickups with individual volume controls plus a tone control, so switching or combining between the bridge and neck pickups can create different sounds, from deep, dubby bass notes to punchy indie and rock sounds with the tone rolled open. With the gloss black lacquer finish and chrome controls and machine heads it looks really cool, it's really nice to play and sounds great.
