Our own "Redscuderia" (eBay's "jcfli") has dropped another rare beauty onto the "Bay". This time it's an '83 AR1505AV. It features a spruce top, brazilian rosewood fretboard and Super 58 Jazz pups.

Ebay Item #120126878256

As usual, the price of admission to the very exclusive AR1505 club is steep.

Yes, the price is steep...but any comparable Brazilian Rosewood, handmade solidbody in excellent would probably go for double the amount. That is a very nice AR1505!!

I'm surprised the seller listed a BIN rather than a high reserve. Let's see how fast it sells.

I have a sneaky suspicion that I've held this guitar (and the AR1500 that's currently for auction) in my grubby hands. It was a few years ago, but I can't imagine that this combo of rare guitars would be duplicated in the state of NJ.

I am VERY happy to say the AR1500CS has found a great new home, in the United States, with a collector of Ibanez guitars. He has told me he is also a member of this forum. I believe he has a very nice, extensive collection of Artist series guitars. Believe it or not, it makes a difference to me where these guitars end up. More to life then money, you know.

Johns--I am thinking you have held both these AR's. I didn't see any "Grubby Hand" prints on the neck, though.

I have just made the AR-1505AV auction a BEST OFFER listing. I really do not want to see this one go, so like is said above--the price of admission is high. I do not HAVE to sell it. If it doesnt sell, I might just keep it for my daughters 18th birthday (she just turned 2) and perhaps she can buy a Corvette with the sale.

Interesting 1505 in Germany. I have never seen one with gold pickup rings.

I have one in player plus condition that was the subject of a thread here a couple years ago by the previous owner.

They are really nice axes!
