Ibanez (Japan) / Artist AR5000RE / 2007 / Antique Violin / Guitar

2007 Ibanez Prestige AR5000RE Reissue Limited Edition 50 Worldwide

This is a great collectible guitar, a 2007 Ibanez Prestige AR5000RE Limited Edition, only 50 were made and that's making this guitar extremely rare. 
The Ibanez AR5000RE in an Artist series guitar model and a reissue of the classic AR5000 Ibanez released in the early 1980s. It debuted at the 2007 Summer NAMM Show.
It's an extremely LIMITED EDITION that was released only in 2007 and only 50 were made.
Like the original, the AR5000RE features a mahogany body with a flamed maple top, a special vine neck inlay and extensive electronics for a lot of tone options.
All parts are original, frets are original, hardware and electronics are also original.
Body is mahogany with bound AAA Flamed Maple top. The flame maple top is CRAZY, it's highly figured and the Antique Violin finish is excellent.
The neck is a three-piece maple set neck with volute and contoured heel, bound ebony fretboard with abalone vine inlay and composite bone/brass nut.
Pickups are Super 58 humbucking pickups with gibralter bridge and Quick Change Classic tailpiece. Gold hardware. Ibanez branded tuners with pearloid buttons.

The controls are explained like this according to Ibanez Wiki: "The toggle in the upper horn is the pickup selector switch. The main 3 knobs control Master Volume, Master Tone and EQ level. The 3 smaller knobs are part of the Ibanez EQ Tone System. They are center notched to accurately provide plus or minus 15db of gain in three frequency bands: Bass/Mid/Treble. The red LED is a Power Indicator for the Active EQ's 9-volt battery. The lower toggle is a By-Pass Switch that turns the EQ System On or Off, the other two toggles are Tri-Sound switches for bridge and neck pickup parallel-tap-series switching."

Cosmetically this guitar is excellent, I found only 1 minor scratch about 1 cm (or less) long on the back tummy cut (last photo), NO buckle rash or major crack anywhere.

This guitar plays excellent, C shaped neck, low action without any dead spot or buzzing along the fingerboard. Frets are fat and without any marking
Include with this guitar is the original alligator Ibanez Hardcase with some of original papers.

I have posted a video on my youtube channel previewing this guitar, please consider that and the photos I upload in the listing as part of my description about the guitar.
