Ibanez Artist AR 5000 Limited Edition 1980 Antique Violin Burst

1980 Ibanez Artist 5000 - Sunburst incl. orig. hardshell case

Super rare and almost impossible to find, this is the original Ibanez AR 5000 Artist Limited Edition model, the "top of the line" of all Ibanez Artist models featuring a extensive pearl & abalone vine inlay on fretboard and headstock, Ibanez Super 80 PUs and the Ibanez EQ-tone circuit. This is the "original" AR5000, not the later reissue which came out in 2006 (..and allready sold for 5K+!). The guitar comes in its original case and is in excellent condition, well adjusted with low action and plays pefectly fine.
