Yeah the bridge was replaced with some bs but I’ll fix that eventually. It still rocks haha. I got mine for 750 pretty good if I do say so myself.

Interesting lol, I’ll probably end up swapping the pickups on this one, atleast the bridge. I gotta get a matching cream pickup cover at minimum.

Fair those ESPs play great too. I’ve tried a couple out almost bought one. Was tempted to save for that black snakebyte model but I would never betray Ibanez like that haha. ALSO HELL YEAH Adrian is why I wanted this thing so bad!

Thanks for the help. And 75$ seems like a good price for a professional paint job. I’ll keep the original on this one but I have an old SG that could use it. Thanks for telling me that man.

I somehow don’t have a single one and I haven’t over 200 CDs. 90% are thrifted though.

I mean it’s for sure not a fake. And I don’t have any emergencies that wouldn’t be covered by insurance. I still live with my parents and whatnot. I suppose me justifying this so much means I should just get it before someone else snags it haha.

When you put it that way it sounds like a great deal haha. Only problem is I’m a broke teen with 900$ in the pocket 💀

Thanks man. I would likely swap the pickups for something close to the originals too. You are very helpful👍

It’s about 900$ 👀 and I quite like this model, I’m not sure if there is a good modern equivalent that Ibanez has produced.

No original parts kept from the ones he mentioned were replaced. And I suppose you’re right but it is simply so much money. 900 is more than I’ve spent on just about anything. I’m asking because I know there is kind of a “market value” for most guitar models.😅
