1980 Ibanez Blazer Series Electric Guitar - HSS - MIJ - OHSC

Funkstown, Maryland, 217**, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

$599

I have a buddy at a local pawn shop who knows I like 80's Japanese guitars
The serial number is not that helpful in dating, instead, there is a good Blazer series wiki that pictures all models by year, the headstock logo points to a BL300 model - built in 1980
NOTE: BL300 should be three single coils (like a strat), but at some point this guitar was modified to include a humbucker. (The hole is not very well cut and the screws are crappy )
