Today Lawman Guitars is Presenting …

A really cool, and rare, Made in Japan Guitar. A 1977 Ibanez Model 2601 Artist Guitar with an older Soft Shell case. This beautiful guitar is in great shape and has been professionally setup for playing pleasure. No cracks and the woods have mellowed over the years to give you a beautiful lushness to the finish that only time can bring.

Be sure to check out the video demo we did for this cool guitar!

These cool Dreadnought guitars from Japan were made from 1973 through 1978. We identified this one as a 1977 from the date stamp on the neck block.

This cool guitar is completely original  and in great shape. A Dreadnought size with a 16 inch lower bout, this guitar has a booming voice when needed but can sound so sweet when finger picked! This cool guitar has a full 4 3/4 inch deep body, a 25.5 scale neck and the nut is 1 3/4 inch wide. You finger pickers will like this one.. Beautiful Spruce top with Queen Mahogany Back and sides. Prettiest Mahogany I have seen in a long time.

This guitar has plenty of bling for your Pro Stage Players... Check out the inlaid bridge, fancy original Pick guard and what about those cool star block inlays for fret markers. Very fancy...It also has the original Chrome enclosed Tuners that still work as they should.

The guitar is in very good condition considering its age. It was played not put away so it has various superficial dings and scratches. Nothing of any not and certainly no body cracks.

Jeff the Tech set it up with new Phosphorus Bronze Strings with awesome playing low action. It is as low as it will go now. I was thrilled when I got it back. It plays great now. No sore fingers with this one!  The top thee frets were pitted beyond repair. We replaced the top three frets so the frets are now in great shape. Some finger divots at the top frets but nothing that will affect play. I love this fretboard. Very fancy and looks great!

It is shipped in the shown older Soft Shell Case. The case is in good shape, all latches and hinges are there and work great

This cool case is still protecting this awesome guitar as it should!

Sold as-is no returns as its vintage and used. Thanks for respecting that!
