This guitar has SOLD!
Today I am playing a "One of a kind" guitar, you don't see many of these around!
I bought it as a Ibanez ARC100, just seen the top and I was sold, but it turned out to be an ARC500. This is a model produced in 2007 only, with plenty of nice details and wonderful wood/material selection. It resembles a Les Paul with its body shape and with the mahogany body and neck, the (quilted) maple top, the rosewood fretboard.
I have to say it sounds great and it's brighter than regular LPs, which tend to be somewhat muddy.
D'addario strings, 0.11 set.
