Selling an Ibanez Universe UV7BK Green Dot. Made in 1990 according to the serial on the backplate. Made in the Hoshino Gakki factory, Japan.

It is in excellent condition; neck and headstock are pristine, a nicely patterned dark rosewood fretboard, plenty of life left in the frets, very minor/shallow dings on the top of the body, no buckle rash on the back, some tarnish\rust on the neck plate but serial and other details readable, otherwise the rest of the hardware is clean.
Check the photos below.

All stock\original hardware and electronics: Lo-Pro Edge 7 tremolo, Dimarzio Blaze II Pickup set, Cosmo Black Ibanez/Gotoh Tuners.

Modification(s): A previous owner had an ESP Arm Adjuster installed. It is currently disengaged.

Original Tremolo arm for the Lo-Pro Edge 7 is included.
The case is a brand new Ibanez M100C (Fitted Moulded Hardshell), not the original UV1000 model.
No original documentation.

£1350/ €1550. No trade offers please.
Will negotiate collection and/or shipping details with buyer. Likely limited to within the UK and EU due to CITES regulations and restrictions.

Fucking proper guitar, as you folks say.

 

[Venator]

Someone buy this guitar. I have one. You guys won't regret it.

 

[SirToastaLot]

Thanks for the sales support/cheerleading guys!

Glad to get the Quigs-seal-of-Blazes-approval.

Oh, and bumping. Still available.

 

[maliciousteve]

Such a cool example of this model. We live in the same town, if I just had the cash I'd be all over that fecking thing

 

[SirToastaLot]

Thanks Steve.
Didn't you express interest in trying my Daemoness and Vigiers a few years back?

Anyway, getting some interest over at the 'other' forum for the Universe, but not sold yet.

 

[maliciousteve]

Yeah I believe that was me. Have you tried any of the Ibanez Facebook groups? Or Jemsite?

 

[SirToastaLot]

Bumping for the weekend.
I also forgot to mention that a previous owner had an ESP Arm Adjuster installed in the tremolo cavity.
I have updated the original post with this information.

Cool. Thanks for the suggestions. I haven't posted in that group or site. Not a member of either place - don't you have to log a certain number of posts on Jemsite before being allowed to list in the Classified section? Are they a friendly bunch?

 

[maliciousteve]

I've not been on Jemsite for years so the rules may have changed. They seemed pretty nice guys back then. Certainly worth trying the facebook group.

 

[SirToastaLot]

Thanks for the tips Steve. I'll sign up to those places if current leads end up going nowhere.
In negotiations with a couple of folks on SS.org at the moment.

I also forgot to mention that an ESP Arm Adjuster was installed by a previous owner. I've edited and updated the original post with this information

 

[SirToastaLot]

Back from holiday - Bump.

 

[SirToastaLot]

Off the market for the moment - time to deal with a potential CITES induced nightmare.

 

[7 Dying Trees]

Oh man, I've had to do that twice now, if you want any advice, shoot me a message

 

[SirToastaLot]

Thanks for the offer of some help!

 

[SirToastaLot]

SOLD.

The CITES Gods have been appeased.
