Hi guys,

was browsing a 'vintage dealer's' showroom today and was dumbstruck by the prices I saw on a couple of Ibanez guitars.

An AS100 in cherry for $1,200 US and a 2370 in cherry with gold hardware and vibrato for $1,600 US. I nearly died.

So tell me, am I right to be shocked, or are these prices typical these days?

The 2370 was a nice guitar, but not outstanding.

Cheers,

Mark

Hey Munch, have you had a look at Guitar Crazy's website www.guitarcrazy.com.au
Have look at the yummy AR's they have, the GB10's are good value as well they have a very nice Floral series acoustic F310CW for $1495.00

This is a real eye opener. The only other Ibanez I have read that went for more than that was an Artwood Twin - at US$3,600.00. I wonder what is the most expensive Ibanez guitar ever sold - anyone? I think they will have to be vintage models.

"Chrome Boy" Satrianis and DNA JEMs bring large $$$ also. I suppose if THE 12-string Weir or the "Birds of Paradise" AR5000 ever came up for sale, you'd see serious change swapping hands.

12 string Weir??? That's something new! Has anyone ever seen one or has pictures that can be posted so I can see it? Thanks.
