Description
What Makes This Guitar Special: The quality, beauty, tone, and features Ibanez is able to offer at a working musicians price point truly is amazing. This instrument offers the look, feel, and warm tones of jazz guitars costing many times what this AF85 is offered at. With beautifully figured curly maple top, back , and sides, the abalone block inlays, nickel hardware, bound f-holes, and classic style tailpiece- this model looks every bit as good as it sounds. Arriving fully set-up by the professionals at Cream City Music, you’ll be able to open the box and play straight away as soon as the package arrives on your doorstep.
Cosmetic Condition: Light surface scratches in the body and on the pickguard from normal play, a finish crack alongside that output jack (only in the clear coat-see photos), and a very small chip at the end of the headstock do little to take away from how well this guitar presents and nothing from how well it sounds and plays.
Neck: Slim profile three piece mahogany and maple with a rosewood fingerboard. Abalone and pearloid block inlays, parchment fingerboard binding, and black side dot markers. The tuners work perfectly and the 22 frets show very little wear and have tons of life left in them. 1 11/16” nut width, 25.5” scale length. The neck is straight and the truss rod has been tested and is functioning properly.
Body: Double bound hollow curly maple top, back, and sides. Double bound matching curly maple pickguard, vintage style tailpiece, adjustable tune-o-matic bridge, and bound f-holes. Guitar weighs 6lbs 10.6oz.
Electronics: Dual nickel covered humbuckers measure 8.47K ohms at the neck and 16.85K ohms in the bridge position. Dual volume and tone controls with gold speed knobs, three way pickup selector switch. All electronics have been evaluated and are in perfect working order.
Case: Original hardshell case included.
