Years ago I got the hots for a Musician guitar. I brought my 1961 Strat to Guitar Center in S.F. to try a straight across trade. (O.K., I was young and stupid). The salesman offered me the Ibanez for my Strat and $200! I got pissed off and walked out. The salesman followed me out to the sidewalk and offered the straight across trade (which I would have done initially). I was still pissed and turned him down. Boy, am I glad I did. I picked up an MC300 a couple of years ago. I hate it. The neck is too fat. Anyone want to buy it? I still have the Strat (which I will NEVER sell). I brought the Strat to Alembic and they copied the neck for my in progress Further.

Bill, tgo

I have two Bartolini pickups that fit into the stock cavity of an Ibanez Musician bass. As I said, the guy who worked on my bass told me he had to special order the pickups from Bartolini. This would have been sometime during the middle to late 1980's. I still have and use the bass, but have added Sadowsky electronics.

Sorry to be tardy; is there some way to discreetly contact you or vice-versa about those Barts Beez? I guess it wouldn't be prudent to put an e-mail address on the thread? Thank you all for your interest in the Ibanez Musician (I never saw a model # on mine).-Tom
