...ont-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">I purchased this used from Old Town Music in Portland, OR in 2007 for $350, and have taken good care of it. There are some small surface scratches and chips throughout (please see pics), some of which appear to have been painted over by a previous owner; I'm sure no one in any audience ever could notice these little imperfections while I was playing onstage, and I *always* ALWAYS got compliments about it's cool and unique color.
The color is stated to be "pearl blue" - I would describe it more as a "mint" or "sea green." This guitar has great dual humbuckers and can conjure lovely tones that sound amazing clean and also when put through hordes of pedals and effects. The built in tremolo bar is one of my favorite features.
From ibanez.fandom.com :
"The RS-420 features a flat basswood double cut body with radiused edges bolted to a maple neck with a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard with dot position markers. Components include a pair of Ibanez IBZ covered humbucking pickups mounted in black pickup rings, a Pro Rock'r double locking tremolo bridge with a string lock behind the nut, knurled Tek Grip control knob and Smooth Tuner II tuning machines."
Bundle comes with attached black Fort Bryan shoulder strap in excellent condition, and a Wings soft case in very good condition.
Have a question? Please ask! I'm moving quite soon and extremely motivated to sell so price is negotiable. Local pickup in Portland, OR is an option if you are nearby.
Thanks for checking out my listing, be sure to snap this baby up before it's gone forever!
