Is it the edsel of the ibanez line? makes me wonder if i need to relieve myself of this guitar. any info on this 250 will be appreciated. thanks folks   Silverring233 Username: Silverring233 Registered: 06-2005 Posted on Tuesday, December 27, 2005 - 9:29 pm:    guess not huh   Johns Username: Johns Registered: 02-2001 Posted on Tuesday, December 27, 2005 - 11:36 pm:    Silverring233: Sorry you're not getting any response.

The AR250VB was introduced in the 1999 catalog. It stuck around until 2001. In Ibanezland, that would be a pretty long run for an edsel. It went thru a color change in 2002; from Vintage Burst to Honey Burst. The reason that these newer AR reissues don't get much talk time around here is that there are so many ARs from the mid-70s thru early-90s available. These are generally considered to be higher quality because they were made in Japan. However, you should judge your AR250 on it's own merits. If you like the sound and the way it plays, then play it! If you get a chance to play an early AR you may change your mind...or not! Keep your mind and ears open.   Johns Username: Johns Registered: 02-2001 Posted on Thursday, December 29, 2005 - 9:35 am:    Here's a 2002 AR250 in minty condition.
