Hi,
I have an Ibanez RG470 to let go at just $370 (Firm). Only offer for today!! It was offered for $440 (Firm). This guitar was sold to me as a Japanese Model a few years ago by a fellow softie, but i really not sure if its MIJ or MIK, although it has a Japan stamp on the back of the headstock. The stamp is not what i usually see in an Ibanez MIJ or MIK. So i take it as a MIK. I could not recognised the PUs too, that came with the guitar as they were old and rusty. These are reflected in my pricing. Anyway, i have upgraded the floating bridge with the Lo-Pro Floyd Rose. Upgraded all PUs with SD. SD Parallel Axis Trembucker (Blues Saraceno) on the Bridge, SD Quarter Pound for Strat SSL-7 in the Middle and SD 59 in the Neck position. All Electronics have been upgraded. I have done a full re-fretting about 2 years back. Now the Fret Life is about 80%. This is my practise guitar. Whole guitar i would rate at 8/10 condition (cosmetic). Its a player, not a collector's quality. No paint chip on body but there are quite a number hairline scratches at the back of body. Neck is straight and not warped. One of the most comfortable Ibanez neck that i've played. This guitar needs setting up to reach its full potential.
Headstock only 1 v small paint chip. Some oxidation on the metal parts especially the tuners at the headstock.
This guitar does not come with the tremolo arm and any carrying case.
This guitar is definitely worth more than the price that im offering. With the upgradings and all.....real good deal.
Photos will be uploaded soon.
