Hey folks

I just acquired up my second Ibanez, an RS525pw.
Ashamed to say, especially after reading this forum, that I used to have a Destroyer (pawn shop special)...that I cannibalized for the Floyd bridge (years ago) and then gave the rest away :-(

Anyway, picked this one up @ a pawn shop, $140 bucks CND. I know it needs work, but I was ok with that, I love the shape, the dual hums and the tank like quality of the body.
The Bridge posts have been repaired once and moved forward, and they need repair again.
I know a very reputable guitar tech/builder that I am going to take the beast to.

Couple questions regarding the RS525.
What are they worth? (No way am I selling it)
What are the production numbers on these?
Does anyone have a gold headstock lock top and screws? Mine is missing.
Also I have no whammy, wouldn't mind a replacement.
From what I can see the pickups are IBZ but how do I tell what F(1-4) they are?

Thanks,

Marc
