I looks like some acid was on it

Gurj said:But it does piss me off when expensive guitars ain't looked after. I also brought a RG8670 from Rich which had several dings in it aswell![]()
Shannon said:First....congrats on the guitar!
Secondly, I know exactly what you mean. A few months back, I walked into GC and saw a used PRS 10-Top w/ P90s (@ $3K for a new one). It looked great until I saw the bridge pup. The previous owner was a teenage kid. He took out the P90, badly carved out the bridge position and then stuck in a red/black Duncan Designed Detonator (the cheap ass version of a Duncan Invader)!!! Talk about a hackjob on an otherwise beautiful axe. It was hideous.![]()

Why do they do it! A UV777BK just sold on ebay last week. The guy had put an active EMG in the bridge. Either he or someone else had done a shitty DIY job and carved, sorry, hacked a section out of the back to fit the battery. I wanted to cry.
Ah, so you're not going to have Rich set it up for the extra whopping $250?Gurj said:Yeh, it was $1050, which ain't bad for a j-custom. The tops pretty clean, but the back looks like a dartboard!! Like I said, I don't mind, hopefully starting a band soon, so this is gonna come in very handy![]()
Theres some more pics on the used page on www.ibanez.com

Gurj said:AAAAAAAAAAARRRHH. You've scarred me again!That picture of the battery DIY job is too much!!
But on the otherhand, for £650 I would have brought it and fixed her up. If only I had remembered to bid................
