The guitar pictured here is a real beauty but it's a terrible shame about the snakes on the fretboard. For me they are dreadful looking but that's just my opinion. Each to their own.

Hi, why is the pickplate purple?

From the pics I found on the Internet, I saw that it actually, or the ones I saw, had a golden or something like that, pickplate?

Anyone have any idea?

Thx, ppl ;-)

And, what was the price on it there? (If it was for sale :-))

Does anyone know approx numbers built...like to know how rare/if rare they are!!! Seriously contemplating one.....

One of these just popped up on UK evilBay. It's tempting for the novelty value, but not that tempting...

got mine new in 92 from exchanges brum.

same price pretty much as a jem with vine inlay

the play ok, not bad pick ups cantvreally compare to any other ibanez as its the only one i've played

a real rarety 1 of 100 and can't say i've seen or heard of more than 10 on the net.

as for the picture on here with the purple scratch plate its just the angle the photo was taken at they were all gold mirror

love or hate em got to admit a real find if you want a rare ibanez

Oooh you have a production figure! Is this confirmed or what you were told by MX back when you got it?
