'81 Ibanez Destroyer II DT400CS - Keeping it
Posted: Thu Oct 28, 2010 9:39 pmHere's my '81 Ibanez DT400CS (I bought it new back in '81)
Mahogany body, Set neck, made in Japan.
There aren't too many of these around at all.
The only thing I've changed are the electronics:
SD C5 Bridge & SD '59 neck
500K CTS pots
It’s in great shape for guitar it’s age. It’s got a few minor chips in the finish….nothing major at all. I am more than happy to send pictures of anything you want to see. It has some fret wear in the 5th and 12th fret blues box positions from wailing away on it for decades but still plays great. The upper strap button has also been moved from it’s stock position on the heel of the neck (back of guitar) to the upper bout area. Also, I’m not one of those guys that sweats acid so the bridge and tail piece are in great shape and don’t have any pitting like some used guitars have. The gold finish is rubbed thin in a few areas but that’s it…..beautifully road worn without a spot of crud.
