For sale is a 1985 Ibanez Roadstar II, RS440, in a gorgeous Purple Haze finish. As far as I can tell this finish was offered only on 5-series Roadstars, making this RS440 an anomaly. 

The guitar is all original and complete, including the whammy bar. It features an Ibanez V5 humbucker in the bridge and Super 7 single coils in the neck/middle, a rosewood fretboard, and a Pro Rock'r bridge w/ lock nut. It is a great player with low action and little (if any) buzzing anywhere on the neck, the truss rod moves freely in both directions, and there is little fret wear. The body is in good shape with some scuffs, dings, and buckle rash consistent with a 35-year-old instrument, most of which is pictured. The guitar will ship in its original hardshell case, and includes the original hang tags wich are in good shape aside from some gunk on one of them.

This is an interesting piece of Japanese guitar history that would make a great addition to anyone's stable. Feel free to ask any questions, and thanks!
