Excellent Condition! #38772Blues Angel Music is pleased to present this 1978 Ibanez Artist! This vintage Ibanez has been well cared for and is in Excellent Cosmetic Condition for an instrument of its age, and 100% Fully Functional Condition!

We invite you to view its 24 pictures carefully and to contact us with any questions you may have!The body is in excellent condition with virtually no wear! Light, normal pick swirl can be seen upon close inspection, and there are a handful of very small finish dings (see pics).  The binding has yellowed to varying degrees, and very light cracks can be seen up close. There is a 1/2" light finish crack at the neck joint. The Flamed Maple top is simply stunning! Super clean! NECKNeck is nice and straight and frets show normal moderate wear that does not affect play on these JUMBO frets! The neck profile is thin, action is low, and it feels great!ELECTRONICSAll electronics appear to be original to the guitar, and everything is in working order with no crackles or pops!

International Buyers – Please Note:We normally utilize USPS or FEDEX as our international shippers. USPS is usually cheaper than FEDEX or UPS. However, USPS will not ship large boxes to some countries. Also USPS has insurance limits of $500 - $600 to a number of countries. Some countries have no insurance limits, and to some countries USPS will not insure at all.As you can see, international shipping rates and options can get very confusing. Because of this, we set our shipping calculator on our listings for UPS Saver International rates. We can almost always ship for less than that amount, and when you buy an item from us we will invoice you for the least expensive shipping option that provides full insurance coverage. If you accept a shipping option that will not insure the merchandise for the full value of the item, in the event of damage or a loss you will only be reimbursed for the amount of the insurance coverage. You will be required to state by email through the Ebay communications system that you accept this potential for financial loss. We pride ourselves in packaging VERY thoroughly, but when shipping merchandise, damage and loss are always a possibility.  - Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility.- Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.- These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up – do not confuse them for additional shipping charges.- We do not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts" - US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior.- We do not accept returns from international buyers
