Up for sale is a rare vintage 1970s "Lawsuit Era" Ibanez Deluxe 59'er Model in a classic Cherry Sunburst finish. This is a fantastic piece of Japanese guitar-making history that has been fully restored and professionally refinished.
Features & Highlights:
Vintage Japanese Craftsmanship: Iconic 1970s Ibanez "Lawsuit" single-cut design featuring open-book style headstock aesthetics and block/trapezoid fingerboard inlays.
Professional Refinish & Restoration: Vibrant red back/neck and sunburst top with a glossy finish.
Tone Profile: Outfitted with chrome-covered humbuckers delivering smooth, lower-output vintage tones—ideal for classic rock, blues, jazz, and clean playing.
Mod-Ready: Pre-routed/drilled mounting holes for mini-switches (coil-splitting or series/parallel mods) make this an ideal canvas for tone tweaking or pickup upgrades.
Condition Notes:
Overall Condition: Excellent structural condition for its age with smooth neck feel, tight binding, and solid hardware performance.
Cosmetic Details: Showing minor vintage character, including slight checking/patina on the headstock overlay, subtle surface swirl marks on the back, and light finish wear along the neck, all clearly pictured.
Please review all photos carefully for detailed close-ups.
