Universe MC case

jamesb_88 · #1 07-30-2005, 01:10 PM

Hi everyone, nice forum you've got yourself here.

I have one of the original 60 1990 MC universes... But no case. Ibanez are being the least helpful they could ever be with me just sending me endless pages of products they are selling despite many direct attempts to get in touch with them.

I was wondering if anyone would know a good quality case which fits the long headstock in please?

Any help would be greatly recieved.
Thanks
James

Hi, welcome to the forum.

UV1000c is the best option from Ibanez

The M100c case is the other option from Ibanez and ships with new JEM/UVs.

And add at least 1000 to that uber bogus number

Thanks very much.

It was at least 1068? or 38 or something, produced with multi-colour, but from a pretty good source i was told that in 1990 they didn't make too many. May be totally wrong, if i am, at least i look more special to those not in the know. lol

Cheers
James

Your source was terrible [unfortunately it was probably found on this site] but there are many more MKR Japanese swirls [1990 and 1991], than there are ATD's [1991 only]

**jemsite** · #6 08-02-2005, 10:15 PM

the source is Darren @ ATD. let it go... regardless who is right (Ibanez has proven to be untrustworthy in this dept.) but you sound like a cranky-old-grump everytime this comes up

The source was Darren, the way it became "true" was being posted here for so long [and still is, comentary added or not]

**jemsite** · #8 08-02-2005, 10:28 PM

it's neither true or false.

we have one side of the story and supposition that is collected by watching which UV77MCs are sold.

only an obnoxious individual would say darren's recollection was mostly incorrect.

now what ibanez did behind all our backs is another story

ring up your sources and get the version from Ibanez and that will be added to the specs ...glen

Supposition?! You've seen the percentages and to ignore them is, well, ignorant at best

**jemsite** · #10 08-02-2005, 10:34 PM

earth to rich - i don't disagree the numbers are off but i'm not going to state FACT based on a small sampling of guitars sold on the internet and more recently on **** with an axe to grind.

what % of MCs do you have photographs of? are you up to even 10% yet?

with all due respect, kindly STFU until you get Ibanez' version of the story

...glen

Rich · #11 08-02-2005, 10:39 PM

You're barking up the wrong tree. If you want Ibanez' story, go get it yourself, add plenty of salt as usual.

It was way past 100 the last time we argued about it
MONTHS ago. I have probably 15 more to add now, predominantly MKR, of course.

Axe to grind? Yea, truth is always the axe right?

**jemsite** · #12 08-02-2005, 10:41 PM

so you still have about 10% right?

keep working on it

noone at ibanez will let these facts out... why would you expect otherwise given they blatently deceived Vai... glen

Rich · #13 08-02-2005, 10:43 PM

*I* don't expect it, then again I'm not the one demanding the story.

10% is more than ANY scientist would need as a random sample. Again, to ignore it, is pure ignorance

**jemsite** · #14 08-02-2005, 10:46 PM

whatever

post back when you have more info

Dear jamesb_88

Welcome to the forum. Let me introduce you to Glen & Rich. They really do like eachother...in the same way two old ladies in a nursing home like eachother.
