Ibanez RG550MXX Desert Sun Yellow. 20th Anniversary.

[apmaman]

I am selling my Ibanez 20th Anniversary Rg550 Desert Sun Yellow.

Very limited production of 1987 guitars between road flare red. Boring black and the best colour, Desert Sun Yellow.

This was imported on relase day back in 2007 and hardly used. No scratches on commemorative back plate. Minimal sings of wear or use.

Comes with hard case and 20th anniversary strap.

Original floyd rose whammy bar.

Has Burns Brian May middle pick up fitted. Fitted with hot pink dial knobs but original black ones included too

A very rare guitar and a true collectors piece.

Not going to bore you with details as anyone interested will know the spec of these.

Collection only!!!

Offers at £2,500

Will settle at 900 +postage at 60 due to it being an instrument and the correct insurances etc.

Looking for a quick sale.

The colour matches your other toys so well. Don’t sell it, you’ll regret it!


But hey, pop it up on the Facebook market place and Reverb if you haven’t already. Seem like the most successful places to sell instruments lately.


Good luck with the sale.

It got sold in the end, for quite a handsome price.

Off to a collector in China, had to meet a friend of his he arranged to buy it off me in another city. All felt very strange but the chap was very nice. Said he was taking it on a plane with him back to China over the Chinese new year. He even bought a seat on the place specifically for it so it wouldn't go in the hold.

Amazing really.

Always good feeling to know something you value has gone to an appreciative home.

Interesting about buying a seat as at the moment second seats might be more affordable plus packing it and probably paying for the hold space would reduce the real cost of the second seat ?

That is quite frankly ludacris baggage handlers and the insurances that come along with it. Much better to pay a premium and at least know the guitar is safe.

I wonder if it got an inflight meal.
