Forgot.....on the back of the neck is really a little sticker with "Med320/bk" on it.

Did they mean DT 320 or what?

Distroya, thank you for the pics.

As far as I can tell,it looks like the person that owned this guitar previous to you may have had a case of "Snap Neck Syndrome and has replaced the original neck with a EX series neck. The reason I say this is that the EX series was the forunner to the RX series,which is Ibanez's entry level model. Maybe the previous owner has swapped over his truss rod cover etc. to make his beloved DT a player again.

The other interesting thing about your guitar is the pots. The original DT's from say the mid 80's had a 1 vol and 1 tone pot and then the input jack. Your guitar has the features ( 3 pots ) of the current DT200 , minus the Edge Trem.

Me feels a question being submitted to Ibanez on this one...could be maybe a "spot production model" perhaps...stay tuned...I will try and get some clarification to this mystery model that you have.

Captain Ibanez :)
