I have a purple Ibanez EX140 and a couple of questions. I believe the serial# 9016241 shows it as a 1990 model, but the catalog doesn't list purple as an available color. Am I wrong about the year?
Also, do you know where I can find a wiring diagram? I need to replace the selector switch and the kid I bought it from wired the existing one the wrong way.
Thanks for any info you can give.

1990 is likely correct. As for the color, it's either been refinished or it's a color that wasn't available when the catalog was printed. Ibanez was nortorious for doing that.

I cain't help wid the diagram, sorry.

Thanks for your reply, Mr roadstar. It's the exact shade of purple as an EX 360 I saw in a catalog, and doesn't appear to have been refinished. I found a good wiring diagram for an H/S/S setup, but did this model come with a 5-way or 3-way switch? It has a 3-way now, but I don't trust what the previous owner did to it.
Also, do you know what the make of the pickups were in this model, especially the Humbucker?

Ibanez didn't publish much useful info on the pickups in these guitars. I suspect it originally had a 5-way switch.
