Maker: Ibanez

Model: Artist AR305AV

Condition: Very Good

Description: 

A vintage 1982 Ibanez Artist in an Antique Violin finish. An all-original classic, the top of the Ibanez line in that era as played by Pat Metheny, Steve Miller, Mike Rutherford and a host of others. This one is in very good overall condition. Body shows a fair amount of surface scratches on the front and back. Shows a fair amount of dings/chips/scuffs mostly along the back edge. Binding has started to crack and chip in a few spots and has also yellowed over time. Besides that, body has no major damage and is overall in good condition. Pickups show some wear/patina as does the tuners and bridge. Headstock shows some wear along the edge and some light surface marks but is overall clean. Rear of neck shows one very small finish chip but otherwise is excellent. frets show some light wear but have no issues and lots of life left in them. Fretboard with pearloid/abalone inlays is excellent. Electronics work great and feature Ibanez made Super 58 pickups with switches for coil splitting and phase. Has been fully inspected and setup here by our team at Coast Sonic and is ready for a new home. Includes hard case.
