Welcome to the HC Acoustic forum Jose.

 

I bought a Gibson J-180EC last year from Musicians Friend. It was an awesome guitar. It sound great and played smooth. Unfortunately, I had trouble bonding with it. It was mostly due to the black finish. I prefer natural finishes on acoustic guitars. If you like black guitars, buy it. It's the best Gibson deal out there.

 

It comes in an excellent TKL hardshell case and also includes a soundhole humidifier.

 

I never played the Ibanez.

 

Here's what mine looked like:

I would get the Gibson but if the color is black it will show all the wear, finger prints, dust and scrapes with remarkable clarity. My EPi EJ-200 is black and I will not own another black acoustic. Ther sure look good where they are new tho.
