Members damacy Posted January 10, 2010 Members Share Posted January 10, 2010 I spent some time searching for this on the net for a while, but didn't have much luck with google. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=264749379 So, I need your help here. Does anyone know much about this guitar? Non-original pickups, but pretty reasonably priced for a vintage unit, I guess. Any opinions on Ibanez Pre/Post-Lawsuit guitars in general would be welcome too. I've never owned a Tele, so I'm a little hesitant. Thanks in advance.

Members soundcreation Posted January 10, 2010 Members Share Posted January 10, 2010 I'm no expert on those but that seems a little pricey to me. It's not like the early/mid 70's MIJ have the same reputation as the early 80's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, it's quite hard to find vintage guitars cheap in NZ. Don't know much about Ibanez lawsuit guitars. One of my mates' got a 70's Ibanez SG that plays heavenly though.

Members billy budapest Posted January 10, 2010 Members Share Posted January 10, 2010 I have a 1975 Ibanez SG that I like quite a bit. Of course I didn't pay anywhere near $600 for it. My best guess is that you would be pretty impressed with the craftsmanship of that tele and that the pickup upgrade is desirable in this case.

Not sure how much is a reasonable price especially when you can't find much info on these old Ibanez. I have an MIJ Strat that I've been using forever, and I love the neck especially. These people surely make some good guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChrisGansz Posted January 10, 2010 Members Share Posted January 10, 2010 quite a few of the Ibanez copy guitars are nice finds. I have a 1977 Model 2350 set neck LP Custom copy that plays great! I won't let this one go cheap either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vespertine Posted January 10, 2010 Members Share Posted January 10, 2010 with this kind of guitars it's more like, how much are you willing to pay for it, rather than what it's worth. IMO. Granted it is vintage, and rare, but it is not really that sough after.. like say an old jaguar or to name one. And if you're buying for collection purposes, the fact that it's not completely stock doesn't help much either. That said, it looks pretty cool.
