Truss rod won't tighten up any farther and the gap is close to 15 thousandth's at the 7th fret. Plays and sounds great though. I didn't notice in the pics, but it has Sure Grip I's on it. Might get new II's from Ibanez and sell these some day. It has pointy ears. I read the link about the terada factory but the dates where much later, not 1982. My 83 Am50 has rounded ears.

Hope you are able to post a review of the guitar once you have some time to play it.   Bluesmeister Username: Bluesmeister Registered: 5-2004 Posted on Wednesday, June 20, 2007 - 12:55 am:    That's beautiful, Mwmeci. I don't think you'll be selling that intrument any time soon.   Zrt999 Username: Zrt999 Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Wednesday, June 20, 2007 - 3:12 am:    Have one just like it, in fact the serial # is only about 1000 off. They are wonderful guitars. Enjoy.   Johns Username: Johns Registered: 2-2001 Posted on Wednesday, June 20, 2007 - 9:16 am:    Mwmeci: Very nice! What do you think of it, compared to the AM50? My AM205 serial number is about 75 higher than your's.   Mwmeci Username: Mwmeci Registered: 4-2007 Posted on Wednesday, June 20, 2007 - 3:28 pm:    I love it. Played my Am50, AM300, GB30, and the Am205 through my Hot Rod Deluxe with the volume at 2 1/2 to 3 on the clean channel last night. They're all very similar and I couldn't tell the difference between the AM 50 and 205. All have super 58's and semi-hollow construction, they probably should sound similar. Thanks for your interest. I'll make a new post on one I let get away.   Fingersmcoy Username: Fingersmcoy Registered: 10-2006 Posted on Wednesday, June 20, 2007 - 6:00 pm:    I guess i cant ask ICW members any simple questions now! I will not post anymore on this site!I just made your day John!!
