Ibanezfreak1960 Username: Ibanezfreak1960 Registered: 03-2004 Posted on Tuesday, March 08, 2005 - 8:26 am:    Yeah that is a sweet guitar! I am condidering this but for $1400 i'd rather have an Artist. Johns Username: Johns Registered: 02-2001 Posted on Tuesday, March 08, 2005 - 12:30 pm:    $700.00 per setneck. Not really unreasonable. Better hurray before Jimmy Page hears about it and scoffs it up. Ibanezfreak1960 Username: Ibanezfreak1960 Registered: 03-2004 Posted on Tuesday, March 08, 2005 - 12:38 pm:    I agree that the price is decent. I just prefer Ibanez's original pieces over the replica's. I saw the Trans Siberian Orchestra in December and the guitarist had one like this. He came out and did a few Led Zep tunes after intermission. Man was that a show. those guys played for 3 1/2 hours.

Johns Username: Johns Registered: 02-2001 Posted on Monday, July 25, 2005 - 10:40 am:    I've only seen these in white and cherry. Anbody know if this natural finish is original? Harry Username: Harry Registered: 03-2001 Posted on Monday, July 25, 2005 - 11:47 am:    Hi John As a collector: that's exactly what I wanted to know. I've send a question to the seller about it. Will let you know the answer. Maybe another new Ibanez discovery or a "home-finished" one?? Kind greetz, Harry Harry Username: Harry Registered: 03-2001 Posted on Monday, July 25, 2005 - 12:49 pm:    Just got an answer: the twin was originally red. It was sanded, polished and refinished. Solved another Ibanez-riddle...... Harry Johns Username: Johns Registered: 02-2001 Posted on Monday, July 25, 2005 - 1:15 pm:    Harry: Thanks for the investigative work. I have to say I like the refin. Sixvsix Username: Sixvsix Registered: 03-2002 Posted on Monday, July 25, 2005 - 4:48 pm:    Amazing how the old cherry finish made the guitar look like real honduras mahogany. six Flatbag Username: Flatbag Registered: 09-2004 Posted on Tuesday, July 26, 2005 - 6:22 am:    Is the JVGuitars setneck a fake? The headstocks look like a cross between the pre and post lawsuit shapes. I never knew Ibanez made setneck twin SGs until now. Ibanezfreak1960 Username: Ibanezfreak1960 Registered: 03-2004 Posted on Tuesday, July 26, 2005 - 7:17 am:    Thats no fake. they made these for sure. Flatbag Username: Flatbag Registered: 09-2004 Posted on Tuesday, July 26, 2005 - 8:16 am:    Oh, I'm not saying they didn't make setneck twins, I just didn't know it. I was asking about authenticity because of the headstocks. In the larger pic they don't look like either pre or post lawsuit shapes, but more a cross between. Lespaul Username: Lespaul Registered: 10-2004 Posted on Tuesday, July 26, 2005 - 11:37 am:    Hey Flatbag, can you explain what you mean by: "In the larger pic they don't look like either pre or post lawsuit shapes, but more a cross between." ? I think these are the usual post lawsuit style headstocks. Paul Flatbag Username: Flatbag Registered: 09-2004 Posted on Sunday, July 31, 2005 - 7:58 am:    I thought the post lawsuit headstocks had protuding bits on the headstock near where I've added arrows below. The headstocks on the twin appear (to me anyway) to be smooth all the way around (kind of like a moustache shape without the dip in the centre), although it could just be the angle of the photo. The black dots on the backdrop don't help either. Johns Username: Johns Registered: 02-2001 Posted on Sunday, July 31, 2005 - 10:52 am:    Flatbag: Here's the picture of the back of the headstocks. The little correct "protruding bits" are there for a January 1977 model. Sixvsix Username: Sixvsix Registered: 03-2002 Posted on Wednesday, November 16, 2005 - 11:59 am:    Something screwy about these peg heads: http://www.qksrv.net/click-1802666-10381315?loc=http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI .dll%3FViewItem%26item%3D7366694236 six Padraic Username: Padraic Registered: 08-2004 Posted on Wednesday, November 16, 2005 - 1:06 pm:    Yep Six, that's a Kay logo I think (that small diamond inlay). Other problems are that the pups should be zebra Super 70s on the 6 string neck, and the neck inlays should be split parallelograms, not blocks. (I have a bolt on 2402 to compare with). The case is not original (should be a brown exterior with a yellow or blue lining). And of course the logo seems wrong for a 1975 guitar - it's the later non-script version. Six, I recall you posted some time ago about fake Ibanez guitars? Well, this seems a fair candidate for one... Padraic Ibanezfreak1960 Username: Ibanezfreak1960 Registered: 03-2004 Posted on Thursday, November 17, 2005 - 8:41 am:    I like the GTO stand he is using! Sixvsix Username: Sixvsix Registered: 03-2002 Posted on Thursday, November 17, 2005 - 4:38 pm:    Yeah me too! six Steph Username: Steph Registered: 06-2003 Posted on Sunday, November 20, 2005 - 4:01 pm:    Hmm, I was curious too but placed a bid. Shall I cancel it. Was Kay a japanese mid 70's brand too? Fredrum Username: Fredrum Registered: 10-2005 Posted on Sunday, November 20, 2005 - 6:33 pm:    that looks to be far too high quality to be a kay. Steph Username: Steph Registered: 06-2003 Posted on Tuesday, November 22, 2005 - 3:43 pm:    The seller confirmed it to be an Ibanez. Could be an odd one, like a 79? Just went away - but did not reach reserve. To be con't... Sixvsix Username: Sixvsix Registered: 03-2002 Posted on Wednesday, November 23, 2005 - 6:11 am:    Not Ibanez. The truss rod covers are wrong and the necks look slightly splayed too. I thought the 2402 necks were dead parallel. six Acetan Username: Acetan Registered: 09-2003 Posted on Wednesday, November 23, 2005 - 12:52 pm:    It's been relisted. No, I don't think it is an Ibanez. Ace Michaelkaufman Username: Michaelkaufman Registered: 11-2002 Posted on Wednesday, November 23, 2005 - 4:45 pm:    I know someone how (supposedly) has a mint one for sale. How much do you think it's worth? Padraic Username: Padraic Registered: 08-2004 Posted on Saturday, November 26, 2005 - 10:45 am:    Here's a Kay headstock for comparison to show the inlay. This doubleneck seems high quality, but it's certainly NOT an Ibanez. Relisted again I see. Tsk tsk Padraic
