I have an Ibanez Artwood acoustic that I bought used from a friend a couple years ago for $800 (he bought it for $1200 a couple years before I bought it from him)

The serial number is: 96081957

It is an Ibanez AW acoustic/electric, cutaway, a lot like a grand auditorium Taylor shape, with a Fishman Equipped electronics system. Abalone on headstock, abalone inlay, abalone soundhole rosette, and abalone snowflakes on bridge, with white bridge pins w/ pearl dots. Sitka spruce top w/ Indian Rosewood back/sides/headstock. Gold grover tuners.

If anyone can give me any info on this, it would be greatly appreciated. I may try and sell the guitar (any offers?)

I'll see if I can post pictures later

The model of your Artwood is AG600E, it was built in August 1996 and was the 1957 guitar built for that month.This guitar used to retail in Australia for $1395.00. It was avaiable downunder from Feb.1996 till Jan.1998 when it was discontinued from the range.

Hope the info helps

Keep On Rockin'

Just out of curiosity, where did you get that information? Are there pics anywhere that I can look at? I have never seen another Ibanez like it.

I work for the distributor of Ibanez in Sydney,Australia and have been associated with Ibanez products since 1975 :)

I will scan the page out of the 1996 catalogue and put it on the page here.

Hey Mr Shanley, I'll need your help with this one again !
