Read moreabout the condition Brand: Ibanez Body Color: Natural Satin Body Type: Solid Body Material: Solid Wood Model: RG8 Size: Full Size String Configuration: 8 String Items Included: Case Dexterity: Right-Handed
Used, in good and working condition. Sold as-is.Any questions? Please ask! Additional pictures available at your request.---I bought this guitar from the gentleman that crafted the body himself. He retrieved the gorgeous "toasted" flame maple top from a maple tree that had caught fire in an electric line accident. The darker portions along the upper bout curves and lower horn are toast/burn marks from the fire - not a paint job.The middle layer is Peruvian walnut, and I believe the back is another variety of maple. It is a hefty piece, and crafted beautifully.The neck was taken from an RG8 - 5-piece maple/walnut Wizard II(?) profile and a rosewood fretboard. Tuners are stock. The headstock veneer wood is unknown, as is the truss rod cover. The veneer and aftermarket decal were placed by a previous owner.Electronics are simple - two humbuckers, to a single volume, to the 3-way switch, to the jack. Both pickups are DiMarzio Deactivators.String-thru bridge was taken from an Agile 8-string. The high E string ferrule is chrome - the rest are black.The control cavity plate is solid wood, variety unknown.The stock white inlays were temporarily inked over by me (I hate inlays), but should be able to be restored with careful solvent usage, if desired.Currently strung with a 7-string set, plus a bass string operating as the F#.Comes with a very nice Gator padded reinforced soft carrying case (not pictured).Overall, in good condition - there are minor scuffs, scrapes, dents, etc. throughout, as well as finish imperfections and unique physical aberrations and the like, but it plays as it should, and the electronics are in working order.All that is needed from you to get this guitar in proper working order is a new set of strings and a basic setup and intonation - very easy (I haven't had the time - otherwise, it'd be done), although it can be played as-is.Selling, because I need the money to put towards fixing my car.$400 flat, with no reserve - BIN for $600. FREE shipping to the continental 48 - no AK, HI, PR, VI, GU, or anywhere else. No international shipping. SOLD AS-IS. NO RETURNS.Any questions - please ask!
