Patrick,

Congrats on another Artfield acquisition. I am zeroing in on my third very soon.

If you need a trem arm, I know someone who will make one custom for you.

Thanks Pat.

The third one appears to be a prototype Ibanez had on display at a NAMM show in the US way back when. I'll post pics when I get my hands on it.

As for the trem posts, I simply used the posts from my Charvel Model A. They fit just as well as the originals.

Hey Patrick,

Congrats on the AFD 25. I think we should get together soon and do a photoshoot of our 9 (!) artfields alltogether.
