Ibanez Electric Guitar Package

They're not doing them anymore, according to the website, but they're out there, and I had to get one for a kid as present.  I was pretty impressed; the guitar is solid--and heavy--without any of the honed-from-the-spongiest-balsa-wood impression the least of the Squiers give off, and the tiny, ugly amp works and is pretty freaking loud.  The distortion channel is especially loud and reasonably crunchy with plenty of crackle, hum and feedback.  The setup was decent; the instrument tuned up easily and plays okay.  For the money, it was a hell of alot easier than picking up the components on their own, and quibbles and nitpicks aside, the quality is probably similar to what ever particular brand you might to choose to get for a similar the price.  (The guitar appears to be a full-scale, 24-fret version of the short scale Ibanez that Santa brought.)  Plus it had to be red.  And it is red.  Red.  So that's what most important.  Red.
