Members Guitarmiester Posted November 3, 2010 Members Share Posted November 3, 2010 Rare Ibanez EX3700TP in transparent purple. - Basswood body- 1 piece maple neck (bolt on) with maple fretboard- 22 jumbo frets with very little wear- TRS Lo-Pro trem- Gold hardware- 5-way toggle This guitar was only produced for a limited run from 93' - 94' and is on par with the old RG550, 570, 750, 770, etc. This particular EX3700 is even rarer because it's a 22 fret model, rather than 24. The guitar plays, sounds, and feels great. Definitely a players guitar and was professionally setup. $450 takes it. I'll throw in a hard shell case for free. I'd prefer to sell, but I'm open to trades. Any questions, feel free to ask. http://i55.tinypic.com/2ewjgrd.jpg http://i56.tinypic.com/w9y72f.jpg http://i55.tinypic.com/9a00w6.jpg http://i55.tinypic.com/24o1r7r.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free bump...Someone is going to get a nice guitar here.... Pics don't do this guitar justice. I hate to sell this, but I don't use it as much as I'd like. Cool to see someone else who uses an EX. It was hard finding any info on these when I bought it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 7PlaGues Posted November 9, 2010 Members Share Posted November 9, 2010 Replied. No longer looking for trades, sorry. Time to downsize, yet again. Pics don't do this guitar justice. I hate to sell this, but I don't use it as much as I'd like. Cool to see someone else who uses an EX. It was hard finding any info on these when I bought it. From nonofficial sites, I found that these were supposibly made in Korea, between 1986-1993. There isn't much concrete info out there that I was able to find...Regardless, they are extremely nice guitars and are above par compared to most modern intermediate Ibanez guitars..

Members Guitarmiester Posted November 9, 2010 Author Members Share Posted November 9, 2010 I was told these were the first run of Ibanez guitars to be manufactured in Korea and were only made for a short run. I'll have to look into that again. I didn't know they were possibly made longer than 1-2 years. I agree, even for being made in Korea this thing reminds me of my old 550 and 770, except this plays even smoother because of the maple neck.

Those are 93-94 production, which is later in the Korean years. The dead give away on early EX's (these happen to be a guitar I collect...I have 4 of them)...is the headstock logo. The really early ones had unmarked (no model designation) headstocks with the RG style Ibanez check mark logo. The mid year units had a bit different font, and 'EX' was in smaller letters like the RX guitars, and the later units like yours had the large EX logo. Regardless, that's a nice guitar.

I just checked that out. I really like the transparent finishes on these guitars. Too bad Ibanez didn't keep up with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 7PlaGues Posted November 10, 2010 Members Share Posted November 10, 2010 Thanks for the info! I thought this version was 93' - 94'. I noticed some EX's have the usual Ibanez headstock logo while others are like mine. I knew there had to be something to that, I just couldn't dig up much on these guitars. I just checked that out. I really like the transparent finishes on these guitars. Too bad Ibanez didn't keep up with them. agreed amigo! Would you consider trades for another guitar? Im in NJ as well.

Members Guitarmiester Posted November 10, 2010 Author Members Share Posted November 10, 2010 It would really depend on the guitar since I'm attempting to downsize what I have. Shoot me an offer though, can't hurt to ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
