Hi,

I'd like to be sure what is my ibanez artist year and exact model? I assume that it is 1981 AR-100 (BS), but still I'd like someone to confirm this to me.

I'm also interested to know the current rated value for that kind of a guitar.

Here are pictures about my artist:

81 AR100 for sure, but the color looks to me more Antique Violin than Brown Sunburst, but it could just be the lighting (or my color-blindness).

Swapped pups and tuners lower is collector value a bit, but players don't care much about that sort of stuff. I would say the guitar is worth between $450 and $650 USD depending on its cosmetic condition, fretwear, etc.
