To All:

Yes, there were some problems on Saturday. It looks like there were two times in the day that messages disappeared. I myself was the victim of a deleted message. I can't say why, nor can I fix anything that has gone missing. If possible, please repost any messages that have disappeared (Thanks Dave_G and MK).

I understand that there was also some "downtime" while I was away. All I can say is the Internet is a fickle mistress. My apologies for any inconveniences these problems may have presented.

To define scenarios further, individual posts within a thread have disappeared too!

The AR300 that wasn't a 300 but a 500.
Right.
The thread disappeared after Yogi and I had posted at exact the same time. Sorry...

Don't remember all I wrote. Perhaps it's better that way. Waisted energy. Some seem to like false information, non-original and corroded parts. I don't bother anymore...

That's modern.
They call it "just out of bed look"
They even sell products to keep it that way.

I guess it's sometimes better to write and save the message in your word processor and copy/paste it into the thread. These things always happen to your long and better analysis, not to the bull.
I remember someone wrote something about the black painted headstock (he missed the veneer). Was that you or Yogi?

See what I mean: jokes about modern hairdo survive, but the serious stuff vanishes into thin air. So that's what's left for us: a little bit of humour and the cup that cheers, which I'm going to have right now.

Yep, it was me who missed the headstock veneer. The earliest AR500's with the veneer I've seen so far were made in December 1980, which actually makes them '81 production models. So it seems that the AR500 in France is in fact a '80 model.

Oh no, Fox! It looks like you've opened Pandora's Box!

The transition period from the 4-digit model numbers to the "AR" designations was earlier, as previously discussed. The headstock veneer appeared first only on the Limited Edition Artists and the AR500 for the '81 models. The AR300 and higher end models got that feature from 1983 on.

Oh,dear! Looks like I have done so.. However, I have an AR500 with quite a fine veneer on headstock, serial starts L80.. And my repair notes show that I have done some electronic repairs on an AR300, that had veneered headstock, however I can not check that, have I looked the serial right, I have marked as I82xxxx.. Anyway I have -83 February AR300 with veneer..
With Ibanez, everything is possible.. extremely fine guitars anyway.. :-)
And what comes to that "great transition" I did not mean that, I meant more subtle ones, eg. the headstock-veneer question..
Btw. my AR400 has smooth heel & thinner body plus Super80s as pickups.. :-)

I know I posted about the 2618. I'm pretty sure I started another thread, however, I cannot remember what it was. Both were in the first topic (Vintage).

Other postings in the Vintage section. Not sure about thread. I know Strings had a post as well as others. I'd say it happened around 6 PM (east coast time) last night.
