I'm curious about the date of manufacture on this...but can't tell if there's a serial number in the description or not. Petruz Username: Petruz Registered: 05-2004 Posted on Friday, September 02, 2005 - 5:44 am:    hi johns i don't speak german so i pasted the text on a translation program, with some awkward results. anyway, the guy says he bought it four years ago (in fact the headstock is the newer one). he also says the guitar is in mint condition. Bassman Username: Bassman Registered: 07-2005 Posted on Friday, September 02, 2005 - 7:59 am:    No, in fact there is no serial number in the description! Johns Username: Johns Registered: 02-2001 Posted on Friday, September 02, 2005 - 8:08 am:    Thanks Petruz and Bassman Lespaul Username: Lespaul Registered: 10-2004 Posted on Friday, September 02, 2005 - 2:23 pm:    Petruz is right. The seller states he bought the guitar NEW four years ago. Still interested in a translation? Paul.

Lespaul Username: Lespaul Registered: 10-2004 Posted on Saturday, September 03, 2005 - 10:55 am:    John, I spend all my time over here so what better could I be doing? Original text from the ad: Ibanez Artstar AF 200. Wunderschöne Vollresonanz Jazzgitarre mit Cutaway, Farbe antique violin, Ebenholzbrücke, geflammtes Ahorn für Boden und Zargen, Fichtendecke, mit Koffer und Gurt. Aufgrund der niedrigen Saitenlage und des schmalen Halses, lässt sich die Gitarre sehr angenehm spielen. Sie hat einen tollen Klang. Selbst unverstärkt kann man damit gut üben. Ich verkaufe die Gitarre, da ich leider überhaupt keine Zeit mehr zum Gitarrespielen habe. Da ich sie sehr wenig gespielt habe (immer nur im Wohnzimmer) gibt es keine sichtbaren Gebrauchsspuren (bis auf zwei kleine Lackschäden vielleicht je 1 mm Durchmesser. Nur wenn man das weiss, kann man das überhaupt finden). Ich habe sie vor 4 Jahren neu für 3316 DM gekauft. Zur Zeit bekommt man sie neu z.B. über MusikProduktiv Schweiz für 3050 CHF (das entspricht knapp 2000 Euro). Gerne gebe ich telefonisch noch mehr Auskunft unter: 08027 908753 oder 0172 8956749 Translation to English: Ibanez Artstar AF200. Beautiful hollowbody jazzguitar with cutaway, antique violin finish, ebony bridge, flamed maple back and sides, ??????? top, with case and strap. The guitar plays very comfortable due to the low action and the thin neck. It sounds wonderful. Even unplugged its possible to practice with it. I sell the guitar because, unfortunately, I have no time to play it anymore. Because it has been played very little(only in the livingroom) it has no visible playwear.(Except for two small finishdings of perhaps 1mm (1/25.4th of an inch for you non metrics! Paul)diameter. (Only noticable when you know where to find them.) I bought it new four years ago for 3316 German Mark. Now you can buy them new, for example through MusikProduktiv Schweiz for 3050 Swiss francs.(wich comes down to 2000 €). I'd be happy to give some details by phone at: 08027 908753 or 0172 8956749. Hope this helps, Paul Johns Username: Johns Registered: 02-2001 Posted on Sunday, September 04, 2005 - 8:32 am:    Lespaul: Thanks very much. You're a great translator!
