Japanese guitars with ebony boards?

[The Eristic]

The only one I'm aware of is the Fusion Pro. Were there others offered with ebony?

Fusion PRO and the 750XL are listed with a rosewood fretboard.

Here's what I believe are the only imports with ebony boards:
Jackson Kelly PRO
Jackson King V PRO-MUSTAINE
Jackson Soloist ATN
Jackson Soloist ATT
Jackson Soloist PRO
Jackson Soloist XL
Charvel Model A
Charvel Model A Plus
Charvel Model A Plus K
Jackson Rhoads PRO
Jackson Warrior PRO

There was a Kelly, a Rhoads and a Soloist model made in Japan which had ebony fretboards, mop sharkfins, binding, Schaller Floyds and neck-thru construction.

They were the PRO models. They were basically a USA SELECT model made in Japan(with a Schaller FLoyd)!

Don't worship the MOAIP, it's riddled with errors. The Fusion Pro was indeed an ebony board. Don't forget the Stealth Pro too. I'm speaking of the original Pro series that ended around 1993-ish. And the Soloist XL was a rosewood board btw.

Whoops! Forgot the Phil Collen Pro, it was an ebony board too.

Trust me, I know all too well that the MOAIP is not perfect. I have been over it quite a bit. But so far it's all that's available. With everyone's help, the new version will take Kevin's excellent work and make it closer to perfect.
