universe

Would anyone happen to know who is making correct spec (material, size, etc) Universe decals? I have a UV7PWH that could do with a new one. Thanks.

Going back and forth between buying a UV70P and waiting for a UV7BK, I finally found one of the latter and took the plunge. It's possible you've seen this one on ebay (Europe). The previous owner had a replacement neck built by a luthier (Jacaranda) with similar support layering seen in newer...

Looking for a player condition UV7BK in europe if possible. Not picky, only requirement is no deep gashes. Dings and other wear is alright.

Hi guys hoping someone could advise... I've had a UV7 Bk for as long as I can remember I bought it off my guitar teacher at the time and have owned it since easy 20 years. I brought it out to be serviced the other week and had a look at the plate on the back and it says JEM with the serial. I...

Jem and Universe re-issues, what would you like Ibanez to do? Just throwing this out there, given all the speculation about what Ibanez are up to regarding a 2020 Jem refresh... If Ibanez asked you what Jem or Universe re-issue you wanted them to release (or you think they should release) in...

I never thought I'd sell this one, but the time has come. Ibanez Universe Reissue Multicolor 20th Anniversary.The best swirl I've ever seen on an Universe (to my taste). I've had 4 of this Universes and kept the best in pristine condition for my private collection. BRAND NEW condition, still...

Hello - I'm considering selling my 90's Ibanez UV77-MC. It's all original, has an incredible swirl, and plays perfectly. It has dings and chips, but again, the swirl makes up for quite a bit in my opinion. I'm trying to get handle on where to price it. It seems to me that the only authentic...

Hello, I have a UV7 from the 90s with a very dirty back side of the neck. I believe I have not cleaned it in over 15 years. I have never attempted to clean it properly, as I do not know. Please, any tips on how to remove all the grit and black dirt without sanding? Thanks!

Ibanez Universe UV7PWH The one and only original Ibanez Universe guitar. Steve Vai played For the Love of God with this exact same model guitar. This UV7PWH is from 1990, the first year of manufacturing. Only 872 were built and who knows how many are left after 29 years. This model guitar is...

I've got an Ibanez Universe that I'm really struggling to identify. I've had it for 20 years and it's now virtually unplayed, but I want to know the exact model before I sell it. It's unusual in that it has pyramid inlays down the neck and non-standard colouring of the pickups: the single coil...
