Here we have a pre owned Ibanez AK-85 DVS Artcore series Hollow Body Electric Guitar. Made in China in 2004. Dark Violin Sunburst finish with a fully bound body. The AK85 is a wonderful budget minded guitar suitable for jazz and blues. It sports a Spruce top with Maple back and sides. Set neck design with a Mahogany/ Maple neck and a 22- fret Rosewood fingerboard. 2- Humbucking pickups with 2- Volume and 2- Tone controls. 3- way toggle switch for pickup selection and a floating wooden base bridge. Beautiful abalone block inlays too. This guitar weighs 6lbs 12oz. It comes with a non original Washburn branded hard case.
This guitar is setup with 10-46's and plays very nicely. The neck is straight and the truss rod is working perfectly. The frets are in great shape with minimal signs of wear. This guitar plays cleanly up and down the fingerboard with no issues.
Cosmetically, this guitar is in very good to excellent condition. The finish has some marks and scuffs but nothing major. No chips or Gdansk. The pickguard has pick swirls and a finish crack towards the base of it. The chrome hardware is shiny and vibrants. The back of the neck is smooth with no marks. Truly very clean shape.
Thanks for looking and happy buying!

Components include dual Ibanez Artcore humbucking pickups with chrome covers and individual volume and tone controls, an ART-W bridge with wooden saddle and base, a VT50 chrome tailpiece, ivory plastic nut and pickup rings, a spruce pickguard with matching finish, speed knobs, and Ibanez tuning machines.
