Upgrades :
1) DiMarzio "The Breed" Neck pickup for the neck
2) DiMarzio "The Breed" Neck pickup (F-Spaced) for the bridge
3) MIJ 3-way pickup selector switch (replacing the original 5-way switch)
4) Orange cap installed


The original Ibanez pickups and 5-way pickup selector switch will be included in the sale.

It has been professionally setup very nicely with low action for gauge 10-46s

Please note that there are 2 holes that have been drilled at one side of the guitar :

The holes are diameter 5mm and are about 2cm deep. They do not penetrate into the control cavity and do not affect the structural integrity of the surrounding wood. Don't ask me why the holes are there lol...

Overall cosmetic condition I would say is 9.5/10.

Option 1 :
Get the guitar as is with the 2 DiMarzio pickups. Original pickups and 5-way switch will be included.
$450

Option 2 :
Get the guitar without the 2 DiMarzio pickups. You can test out the guitar first, and once you confirm the purchase, I will snip out the DiMarzios. Original pickups and 5-way switch will be included. You will need to do your own pickup installation.
$300

Option 3 :
If you have a nice boutique OD to trade for this, I can accept it as part of the payment, be it for Option 1 or 2. Top-up accordingly from your side.

Bag will not be included in the sale so kindly bring your own.

I can bring the guitar to any MRT convenient for you to test it out. If you have a portable amp to test the electronics that'll be great too. Otherwise you can just test the guitar first, and the electronics when you get home.

Please text me at 8288-9887 to deal. Please do not call as I will not be able to take your call during my working hours.

Thanks for viewing!

P.S. : Selling this nice axe only because I have moved over to 7-string! This is a great guitar for the money.

Btw just to clarify - the guitar was bought brand new from BGW Guitars, and the 2 holes at the side were drilled after I bought it from them :).
