The guitar is in immaculate condition, the same as when I bought it brand new.. There are no dings or scratches anywhere. I bought this guitar brand new at the historic Archambault store in downtown Montreal (now, regrettably, permanently closed) back in August of 2022. I am its original (and only) owner. Always kept in a smoke-free, humidity-controlled environment, and always in its case. The plastic on the pickguard was only removed a couple of months ago for fear that it would adhere to the pickguard (it did not). The sticker is still present on the back cavity plate. The Original Edge bridge is in brand new working condition: it has been thoroughly cleaned and oiled, and the posts/knife edges greased with lithium grease for maximum longevity and extra smooth operation. (Flutters are out of this world!). It plays and sounds even better than it looks and can be set up with very low action.

Selling because I need to fund other purchases and I have a set of guitars that are more my style and that I play more often.

The only flaws are: (See pictures)

A tiny bit of wear on the gold plating of the low E and A saddles (Very common on gold Edge bridges. You really have to squint to see it in real life)

A slightly wobbly volume push/pull knob that came like that from the factory (which is absolutely zero problem at all and is a common trait of these guitars).

The guitar comes with all of its original case candy, including: (See pictures)

Original PIA booklet.

Ibanez manual.

Ibanez multi-tool.

A carbon Ultralite whammy bar plus a regular black whammy bar.

Two sets of replacement O-rings for the whammy bars.

All the original factory and store tags.

Additionally, also included are: (See pictures)

A matching DiMarzio Steve Vai UtoPIA ClipLock strap

An original Ibanez push/pull pot (never opened) bought from IbanezRules! should you ever want to replace the original one (Part # 3V504SBSW1SL). I never felt the need to, but thought it'd be nice to include.

A set of D'Addario NYXL 09-42 replacement strings. (Same as it's got right now.)

I can provide additional photos or video of the guitar if needed. (Including demo videos with direct or camera audio.)

Shipping within Canada ONLY, insured up to $5000. (No carrier will allow me to insure above $5000 unless I pay almost $1k for shipping.)
