Item for sale: Ibanez Proline pl1770

Description & Condition: Used, definately a players guitar. The guitar is in good condition for a guitar that is 20 years old. 1985 Silver model, with H/S/S a 5 way switch, a unique push button pickup selector to create all new pickup combinations. There is a schaller hum pickup in the bridge, stock ibanez single coil pickup in the center, and either a fernandez or similar sustainer in the neck. The sustainer is controlled by a added volume knob where a normal fender strat would have it's output jack. Both the volume and tone controls are push/pull to split coils and turn the sustainer on/off. The trem also has a trem-setter. The guitar plays great, has wonderful tone and sustain. The guitar comes in a charvell hard shell guitar case which is beat up but does the job. Any questions, please feel free to ask.

Would you ship to Mexico and if so how much would it cost?
Fedex quotes $150 without having an exact address or postal code. If you're willing to pay the shipping I have no problem shipping to Mexico.
Just fyi that appears to have a floyd rose sustainer in it. Kind of rare actually but just thought you would like to know
I thought that was an old version of the trem setter, but whatever you want to call it, it is a rare item. Thanks!
what functions does the sustainer pickup has?

The thing in the bridge cavity is. The neck pickup, the sustainer though is made by floyd rose i think. Eddie van halen use to use one and its been seen in the jackson phil collen model as well but a new version of it at least.

The sustainer pickup has it's own circuit and is powerd by a 9v battery, so it becomes an active pickup. This then enhances the sound and sustain of the notes
what would shipping be to 50014 and also what would the neck compare to? I've never played a proline. Is it similar to other ibanez necks or what would you say it is close to?

Shipping would be $20 to you, and fedex says about 3 days. The neck is similar to most ibanez necks. I play this along with my jems and jpms, and have no problems transitioning. The body is a heavy solid wood, so it has more weight to it that my other ibanezes, but the feel is nice. It's ibanez's version of a strat. The binding on the neck is a nice touch too. Hope that helps.

Thanks!
Please lock it up, this one's going to the 'bay
