...ike and the sound that one needs. The Gibson having volume and tone for each pickup allows one to adjust the sound to the way one like would like it, while the Ibanez has volume and tone for only the one picku which controls the sound. The next piece that is connected to every guitar is the neck,the long structure that runs from the body to the headstock and onto which the fretboard is attached. Many guitars have many different types of necks varying from length, width, thickness, and different types of wood. The wood on the neck of the Ibanez is poplar wood, which makes a rougher and more ruggedneck. The Gibson, on the other hand, is made of rounded mahogany wood which produces a smoother neck and has a comfortable feel to it (les paul standrad). Having a better feel allows the guitar player to increase his or her speed when just practicing or maybe even accidentally when performing live. The radius of the neckon a Gibson is much smaller than the neck of the Ibanez. Having a smaller neck also lets the musician have more control of what they are playing. The fret board,the wooden strip attached atop the neckand into which the frets are set, is located on the neck of the guitar. The fret board on an Ibanez is made of rosewood as opposed to the ebony fret board on the Gibson(history of ibanez). Having an ebony fret board, the frets are a lot stronger, more tighter, and better quality. The Ibanez, having rosewood, is not as strong, and from too much playing of the guitar wears the frets down and are dead in a couple of years. So, when the frets are so worn out, one can't just buy a new fret board, one would have to buy a whole new guitar. Then one would have the head of the guitar which is located at the very top of the guitar. On the top of the guitar, we have what are called tuning pegs, devices set into the headstock that anchor strings and allow them to be tuned, obviously to tune one's guitar. The tuning pegs on the Gibson are much stronger and they won't go out of tune as easy as the Ibanez would. The reason the Ibanez goes out of tune is because the pegs are a differe typeof metal, and the metal that the Ibanez has is much weaker than the Gibsons. So having the Gibson makes it much easier on the musician from constantly having to tune the guitar. Then we have the bridge which is at the bottom of the guitar to hold the strings in place. You connect the string from the tuning peg down along the fret board till you fit them into the bridge. The bridge on the Gibs...
