1984 Ibanez Destroyer II DT-555 (MIJ Fujigen)
Produced for only a limited time in the early 80s and with design features and specs changing year on year, this DT-555 Destroyer is a 1984 model which saw the mahogany body change to basswood with a birchwood top to shed a few kilos and much flashier block inlays on the rosewood fingerboard. This is an early '84 model before the Hard Rocker Pro tremolo system was accompanied by a locking nut so this one is just a normal synchronised/balanceable tremolo.
Of course, being an early 80s Fujigen made instrument, these are some of the finest playing and sounding shredder guitars in existence. This guitar certainly lives up to the hype with a super slim, super fast neck and screaming metal tones from it's original V2 pickups in the neck and bridge and the swapped in Bill Lawrence L-500 zebra in the bridge position.
This guitar has just had a professional spa and full service and is playing and sounding like a dream. The guitar has a fair share of playwear, scratches, small dings and dents but all is honest and authentic. The guitar has been refretted at some point which is to be expected for a guitar of this vintage but we've dressed the frets and the guitar is playing silky smooth! The guitar is in original condition aside from the refret, BL bridge pickup and tremolo arm. No cracks, breaks or structural issues whatsoever. Perfect for a collector or anyone wanting that perfect 80s shred machine! Comes with it's original brown Ibanez leather gig bag!
