Ibanez Artfield....I need one !!!

[heartfielder]

Have any of you seen the Ibanez Artfield guitars ? They were made in Japan around 1988 - 1990. They are very well-made and hard to find. I would love to own one, so if any of you know where I can get one please PM or e-mail me. Thanks in advance.

They weren't available to the general public in the US, afaik. They go for a fortune when they show up on ebay. More than Elans, even. I'd like to have one of the "normal" ones, but at over a grand for the couple I've seen, I'll pass. If one of the extended range models shows up (particularly the AFD-45), though, you'll have some competition. ;^)

I have the PRS type of Ibbbi Artfield, 24 fret bolt in neck (like prs bolt on's) carved flame maple top over mahogany. The body is somewhat smaller than a PRS and de horns are sharper. It's a great guitar, I believe mine was made in 1988, I don't have acces to my pictures at the moment so I can't show you a picture of it I'm afraid.

No these are not the Fender Heartfields, these are the Ibanez ARTFIELDS. Different, but still excellent quality and made in extremely limited numbers.
