Up for sale is my Ibanez Artist from the 70's.

It is one of the first the first of this model, no serial no, so pre 74/75. 

It also features rosewood fingerboard, unusual for this model - usually Ebony which gives it a slightly warmer tone.

It's in very good condition for a vintage Ibanez, with a few chips and marks for a 40 year old guitar. There's some corrosion to the gold hard wear, but it all works as it should. 

No buckle rash to speak of, a few chips, one on the front as pictured, which could easily be drip filled, there's no wood missing anywhere though. It once had a coil tap which has been plugged up with wood. 

It has the original Ibanez Velve tuners, and Dimarzio pickups. It weighs approx 8lb's. 

It has had a new nut, and the frets I would say have been dressed. The inlays and binding are amazing, and in great condition, with no cracks. Plays well and sounds great. The action is amazingly low, it plays beautifully. Selling as I have too many guitars!

I have a padded gig bag for this, but for shipping I will need to get a hardcase to protect better. I will ship internationally (please see my feedback for feedback on sold LP Custom Shop, Mayones, Ibanez J.Customs and a few others over the last 3-18months - many were shipped internationally).

You are welcome to collect, but if looking for international shipping please give me 7-10 days to get hold of a used hardcase for this to include in the sale simply for protection during shipping.

Thanks for looking. Any questions please ask.
