I had just purchased my Ibanez GAX70 electric guitar just over a month ago. Purchased it directly from Guitar center.
When i play the g string open it sounds ok. But then when i practice playing the open E major chord, it sounds bad. I then press the g string on the the first fret only. Sounds really bad there also. It doesn't sound good until i get to the 5th fret. It is not a buzzing, or muted sound. It's not a clean, clear sound. It almost sounds like a dead fog horn. That rings alot longer then the other strings. Even to a beginner like myself. It should doesn't sound right.
I have tried lowering amd raising the action, but still no difference.
Retuned it after every adjustment.
If anyone can help, please do. If not i'll have to take it to GC and have them look at it.
Thanks
