Interesting Artist. IBZ pickups & duo sound coil taps. Has anyone played one of these? What's the deal w/ IBZ pickups?

$499 w/ case!

The pickups are original? The bridge looks aftermarket right?

That guitar is bone stock. ShortStop bridge, IBZ pickups, and Duo-Sound switching. I had a black one a few years back. Wouldn't mind having one again.

IBZ's are hot muthers. The bobbin assemblies are totaly encased in epoxy and sealed into the plastic housing.

If you like the mellow mahogany bodied Super58 Artist, you may not like the aggressive sound of the basswood bodied IBZ AR120.

Set-neck. It's amazing how many folks don't know the difference!
