This is it. The guitar is beautiful to me. The auction is all in german.

BUT it is no official custom, and he is not selling it like one.

One of his mail :

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
Hi nicolas.. well. i bougth this guitar 6 month ago and i payed 800€. it`s not a really Ibanez custom guitar, because it was born as a stock RG 1527. the former owner pimped it with a maple laminate and he stripped it down to the wood, finished the body with stain and wax/oil.

yes, the shipping is 22€ to belgium, no extra fees.

let me know, what do you think!

I am a TOTAL ebay noob. It is just that this guitar is super nice and it is based on RG1527 Royal Blue, my ultimate guitar atm. I think I can score it around 500-600.

What do you think ?

Ok I bid.
The guy closed the auction and he made me won. Then he add his reserve price as a fee, and the final price is 547 euros shipment and a big bag then in a box, included.

do you think its a safe deal ?

seller looks honest from what I see but it looks like the guitar is not in mint condition

i've noticed the headstock was used pretty much.

what else did you see ?

He says he rarely played it, is the original owner and has some rust on the tremolo which he tries to get rid of before shipping but says that the guitar overall is in a very good condition. Also he gives the option to get a case with it instead of a bag.

I don't see anything suspicious, looks like a decent ebay member. positive feedback through all his auctions, so good luck!

 

[abyssofdreams]

Hmm, at first I was like "DAYUM!!!!" but then I saw the 4-piece top, what the hell is up with that? :zombie: And what the hell happened to the finish on the back?
