EXCELLENT CONDITION - 9/10

- There are a fair few little dings & marks throughout the body & headstock as shown in the pics - everything shown is everything that the naked eye can see. The top is extremely clean though it must be said.
- There are the classic Ibby neck pocket checks - very common on older specimens & affects absolutely nothing.
- There are also a few very shallow indents on the back of the neck - nothing that you can really feel when you're playing as they're very small.
- Knobs & pickups have been changed. I'm not entirely sure what pickups are in there at the moment, but they're DiMarzios & they sound wonderfully smooth & fluid providing articulate shredtones aplenty.

- None of this affects playability or functionality whatsoever - these are all purely cosmetic flaws - frets are 95%+ & hardware is mint
- Considering this is a 15+ year-old axe, it's in amazingly good nick!




This is one of the first J Customs ever built, & as such are becoming an ever-increasing rarity these days. They are revered & renkowned for their exquisite craftsmanship, spectacular playability & stellar tone - & for good reason:


- DAT FLAME MAPLE! Yum. You won't find too many tops more vibrant than this. Proper lighting really brings out the grain & the pics don't really do it the kid of justice it deserves in person.

- The neck on this thing is one of my all time favourites, slightly thicker than what you might find on todays J Customs, but no oh-so-ergonomic, comfortable & natural-feeling in your hands; & no less shreddable. It provides absolutely unrivalled playability that allows you to really express yourself & your articulations fully. You will quite literally play faster than ever before with this axe, no doubt about it.

- Fretwork is immaculate, as we have come to expect from top of the line Ibbys.

- I'm not a massive rosewood board kinda guy admittedly, but this one is truly gorgeous with a lovely deep chocolatey grain that I feel no aversion to running my hands all over.

- Thick & chunky yet defined & articulate, the tone provided by the mahoghany body/maple top/maple neck & DiMarzio combo is extremely organic & airy in nature. It really allows the natural attack of the woods to stand out in a way that you tend to only hear on truly well-constructed axes.

- & overall build quality is absolutely sublime - this is a J Custom after all.



- Set up with 11-54 Ernie Ball Beefy Slinkies in D Standard

- Comes with Ibanez Original Hard Shell Case & tools



YOUR SPECIAL PRICE: $1790 ONLY
