c1992 Ibanez USA Custom RG UCEWQM (USA, Transparent Ebony, HSC)
The USA Custom line was a very short-lived early 90s Ibanez venture that built instruments for the general public, as opposed to the LACS which served artists exclusively and still does to this day. This one is kind of like an RG570 spec - bird's eye maple neck with a rosewood board, 24 frets, Edge Pro bridge and locking nut. Mahogany body with a (thick!) quilted maple top finished in "Transparent Ebony". HSH config with two Dimarzio PAF Pros and C3 in the middle.
One interesting quirk to mention is that these USA guitars normally had an "Ibanez USA CUSTOM" headstock decal, without a chevron. This one has been replaced by what appears to be a 90s JEM decal (there's a tiny little J...), probably an aftermarket sticker. You could remove it entirely if you wanted. Everything else about the construction, hardware, electrics etc. checks out, so we're confident it's not a fake.
At some stage, somebody also chucked on a Roland GK3 MIDI Pickup, possibly for Allan Holdsworth / faux-synthaxe related reasons. Currently missing lock nut clamps but if they're found this line will be removed.
Made In the USA Custom Shop for 1992 only, serial number 92384. Comes with a UXL Dreadnought case for some reason - perfect if you have an acoustic guitar which needs a case. We'll give you a bag for the RG...
