Picked up some nice old Ibanezes in the last week.
a 540P S/H in white. The unofficial Alex Skolnick of Testament model. I toyed with getting it repainted another color but my brother Jemsiters were appalled at the suggestion and said I should leave it as is. Besides, I got another 540PII body in mahogany and neck with ebony board and matching color inlays and headstock logo getting made by Nate Perle and painted by LiquidFX airbrushing which I think will be neon pink, just to 80's Ibanez the fuck out of it. Desert yellow still running in second.
Axstar AX75. The attempt at getting in on the Steinberger market. Takes regular strings. Alder body/ebony fretboard, active Ibanez pups.
Both of them rarely come up anywhere so I'm happy I added them to my "Ibby's no one loved when they were out" collection at reasonable prices.
Ibanez 540PIII (the Swirlnick) will debut later today when I get around to finishing assemblage.
