Author Message   Ibanez_Guitars (Ibanez_Guitars) Posted on Thursday, December 27, 2001 - 4:16 pm:    Recently purchased an '85 Pro Line V. Black, bolt on neck, humbuckers. A previous owner replaced trem with a washburn wunderbar. It functions, but I'd like to put it back like it was. Anyone have info on the type of trem that came on it? Also, any other info would be helpful, like type of pick ups, etc. Thanks! Jeff   Johns (Johns) Posted on Thursday, December 27, 2001 - 5:26 pm:    Welcome Jeff: The Trem was the Pro Rock'r. The pickups are V5, blade style. They are supposed to be pretty "hot". These were also used on the XV and DT series guitars. I'll post a picture from the '85 catalog tomorrow.   Ibanez_Guitars (Ibanez_Guitars) Posted on Thursday, December 27, 2001 - 9:57 pm:    Thanks John! Looking forward to the pic. Are the pro rock'r trems hard to find?   Johns (Johns) Posted on Friday, December 28, 2001 - 12:07 pm:    Jeff: Here's the picture from the '85 catalog. I really can't tell you anything about the Pro Rock'r. I have very little experience with trem fitted guitars. Hopefully, somebody else will have some further input.   Ibanez_Guitars (Ibanez_Guitars) Posted on Friday, December 28, 2001 - 12:49 pm:    Thanks John!   Ibanez_Guitars (Ibanez_Guitars) Posted on Saturday, December 29, 2001 - 7:37 pm:    Hey guys, Need a little assistance. Bought what was supposed to be an '85 Ibanez catalog on eBay, but turned out to be an '86 instead. Any chance someone with an '85 can scan me the pages covering the PR1660? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the info and Happy New Year!
