Hello,
I am new to this board and new to the world of electric guitars. i don't yet own an ibanez but have been looking for a musician for a long time.
Can anyone identify this guitar (please see ebay item number in post)? I can’t seem to find any info on it anywhere. It looks perhaps like a modified musician? If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.
Thanks
Nick

I think you forgot to add the eBay item number in the textbox before clicking "Add Ebay"

Welcome aboard!

So ya, just paste that number into the "Enter Item number:" textbox and click the "Add Ebay!" button.

Definitely a modified Musician. Maybe an MC200? Looks like some trouble on the input jack, and possibly a added toggle switch, with the other obvious mods. Would be nice to have better pictures.

Nick:

Brent is correct that it's a modified MC200. See the following link for the original specs:

I downloaded his zip file of pictures. It's probably a nice player guitar, but it's been heavily modified and has lost most of it's value. Collectors pay the highest bucks for a mint, all original MC200. However, in it's current state, it's simply a used instrument that is easily found.

The reason that his "baby" didn't get any bites at $450.00 is painfully obvious: it isn't worth that much.
