Review of the Ibanez Tim Henson Todashi TOD10N Guitar
In this section, the speaker reviews the Ibanez Tim Henson Todashi TOD10N guitar and shares their first impressions.
First Impressions
- The speaker noticed that when they plug in their Ovation acoustic electric guitar and try to use certain sounds, especially higher gain and distortion, it clips and sounds horrible. They assume it's because of the pickup in the guitar.
- The Ibanez Tim Henson Todashi TOD10N guitar can handle a variety of different sounds and tones without sounding like complete garbage.
- Tim Henson released a tutorial on his channel on how to do thumping and fingerpicking. The speaker has been watching other videos on YouTube to work on their fingerstyle techniques as well.
- The build quality of this guitar is great, which is expected from Ibanez. It seems pretty affordable for a signature artist guitar.
Is It Worth $700?
- As someone who owns many Ibanez guitars, the speaker thinks that the build quality of this guitar is great.
- The Tim Henson TOD10N guitar is unique while also being simple. It fits a niche role in the guitar market that is hard to come by: an easy-to-play semi-hollow acoustic-electric guitar that seems like it's meant for classical music but can really do so much more if you want to push boundaries.
Conclusion
The Ibanez Tim Henson Todashi TOD10N Guitar seems like a solid choice for those looking for an affordable signature artist semi-hollow acoustic-electric guitar with great build quality.
