These are in the catalogs from '71 thru '75.

Johns Username: Johns Registered: 02-2001 Posted on Thursday, April 14, 2005 - 4:37 pm:    Freak: I think that might be a strange glare on the bridge, but I'd ask about it if I were serious about bidding. The wood insert on the tailpiece looks cracked. And it's definitely acquired a brass nut; I doubt that was stock in the early 70s.

It has a 330 style tailpiece, and a 345 style neck with double parallelogram position markers. Not a dot in sight ! You guys are better informed than me on all things Ibanez but…………….is the wood insert on the tailpiece correct ? – looks home-made(ish) to me Johns Username: Johns Registered: 02-2001 Posted on Friday, April 15, 2005 - 5:55 pm:    Billy: The tailpiece is just as Ibanez designed it. Not very pretty in my opinion, but original...albeit slightly damaged. Sixvsix Username: Sixvsix Registered: 03-2002 Posted on Friday, April 15, 2005 - 6:36 pm:    Sorry John I'm with Billy. That lump of wood is an addition. YUK! six Johns Username: Johns Registered: 02-2001 Posted on Friday, April 15, 2005 - 10:38 pm:    Check out the picture of the tailpiece on the 2390 on this catalog page: http://www.break-even.org/ibzscans/1971/71-23.jpg Ibanezfreak1960 Username: Ibanezfreak1960 Registered: 03-2004 Posted on Friday, April 15, 2005 - 11:34 pm:    Looks like it belongs! Billy_porter Username: Billy_porter Registered: 03-2005 Posted on Saturday, April 16, 2005 - 3:20 am:    Yo guys Again I'll bow the superior knowledge of you guys. I guess you could remove the insert and it would look like a standard tailpiece. Were these completely hollow bodies ? Just curious Sixvsix Username: Sixvsix Registered: 03-2002 Posted on Saturday, April 16, 2005 - 6:10 pm:    I'm two runs down here. Anybody else wann teach me tonite six
