1991 Ibanez 540R HSS Jewel Blue – IBZ/USA Pickups
Vintage Japanese Ibanez Radius | FujiGen | Serial F100334 | Original-style HSS Configuration
Up for sale is a beautiful 1991 Ibanez 540R Radius, made in Japan by FujiGen during the golden era of Ibanez guitar production.
The 540R Radius is one of Ibanez’s most distinctive vintage designs, featuring a beautifully sculpted, ergonomic body that later influenced the iconic Joe Satriani JS signature series.
This particular example features a striking dark blue-green metallic finish with an almost black appearance under certain lighting conditions. The color really comes alive when the light hits the curved edges of the body.
