Description
This Japanese-made 1977 Ibanez Artist 2629 Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitar w/ Original Hardshell Case has been gently owned over the years and shows light, normal wear one would expect with a vintage instrument. Normal body scratches, pressure dimples, minor spots of delamination and a few tiny dings/cracks in the binding can be detected upon close inspection. Chrome hardware shows normal oxidation. Overall clean and very structurally sound! The original bridge and 3-way pickup selector switch have been replaced, though the originals are included. Pickguard is absent. Neck is straight as an arrow and frets show little to no wear! Looks, plays and sounds great! Original hardshell case shows normal cosmetic wear. The accessory compartment’s lid has detached and its lining has worn off, but the case is otherwise fully functional. We ask that you observe its pictures closely and invite you to contact us with any questions you may have.
