8) Yep this is the one I posted earlier that was $800. He has lowered the price to $700. It is a one owner original and is near mint as it gets. Very nice indeed. This one will make someone very happy. Good Luck. This one is 100% all original and only has slight play wear(a few swirls and pick marks ) and is super clean.

Price drop to 575.00.....I had planned to purchase this guitar at 700.00, but he stalled a few days and I moved on with other purchases in the works. At this point, I wouldn't buy this guitar from this seller unless I could meet "in person".

Looks like the eBay shot was a NO SALE this time. Maybe it'll be back around at a better price.

Back on eBay again this evening. I offered 545.00 and was declined. With shipping, that would have been 6 bills. Since he offered it on CL at one point for 575.00, I thought that a fair amount to be offering. Oh well......I guess just keep waiting.

JD, did you get the PDF file he refers to? What is up with the two light streaks in the body? There in all the pics, same place so its not lighting or anything. I'm assuming they're not scratches.

I did recieve the .pdf months ago, but I can't find it on my hard drive. I must've deleted it. Let's see if Arthur kept his copy.......

I think those are grain flaws....but it surprises me that the factory would pass it on in that condition. Possible water/chemical staining prior to finish application....worm/termite trail? Heck, beats me without being able to hold the guitar.

Have you asked the seller about them, since they ARE so prominent in the photos? That's the only thing that has kept me from making further offers. I think that every time I looked at it...that's probably the first thing I would see.

I will dig around and see if I can find the PDFfile. I may have it buried in a junk file somewhere. I will post it if I find it.

I bought that darn thing fellas.....I couldn't help it. John and I reached an agreeable price and I grabbed onto it. This one will be # 19 for me. I'm gonna have to start sellin some Ibanez off. It'll go well with my Jazz Strad....I'm glad they didn't make a Country Strad. :hyper:
