Friends after you have read the following words make a fair for both sides offer if you are seriously interested in buying this modified guitar. My purpose was to have bass sound on a six string lightweight body so as to play either as a bassist or a guitarist: Check my video Rosanna-Toto on Youtube that you will find it down in the photos and you will get my point. It’ s a well balanced instrument.. We have both playings in one body with this guitar plus it is lightweight (only 1 .9 kg )and cause no backpain when you wear it on your shouldier and play standing up after hours. I am selling this with broken heart ’cause i cannot tolerate anymore the classical nut width of 52mm . My big issue is my fingers that are short.I didn’ t expect that when i was buying this guitar from the beginning but that’ s life…certainly full of surpises. I have already bought a 48mm narrow nut width guitar for my fingers to deal with frets better and again i have placed these outstanding strings of Savarez Low640R.G850 is without any doubt the top classical guitar for this brand of all times until today .It’ s very very wrong that the manufacturer discontinuoud this model. No classical guitar of Ibanez has ever outreached the quality of the G850. If you want to find out if the below prices are valid and and not fake by me search the internet by your own and check it .I repeat and pay attention: Either buy from me or from elsewhere you must have in mind that the set up of a brand new guitar is not avoidable.The fretboard needs work to be playable. The same condition had the 48mm narrow nut guitar that i have already bought and by the way it is not Ibanez but Ortega. So minimum 80€ extra (one other luthier from Thessaloniki requested from me 150€ for the same job) you always pay a luthier to make the guitar playable. In differen case you have a skrits-skrats sound when you pluck the strings and move them up down and also you are in pain due to the sharp edges of the frets that need to be filed for the fingers’ touching to be smooth .Check a review in amazona de.

59€ for Ortega preamp
20€ for preamp installation
10€ for the bone saddle and the bone nut(the factory ones were plastic)
54€ for the 18 dot inlays installation(3 €/dot)
80€ for setup(see 27 chapter below for details)
29€ for Savarez strings( i will send this guitar to you with brand-new strings: Promise)
3€ for strap pin
Total: 630€
