BLUE SPARKLE! 💙 ✨

I refer to this as the Martina Blazeska model Talman!
She's an Ibanez artist (https://www.ibanez.com/usa/artists/detail/1279.html) that plays this model a lot!

Serial: 4L160900630
Built: September 18, 2016
Finish: Blue Sparkle (BSP)
Made in China
Total weight: 7 lb 15.1 oz

I'm the original owner! I bought this one new.

It's still in amazing condition. I've played it a good amount (learned some tapping runs and covet riffs on this one!) but I'm pretty careful and never too hard on my guitars. Basically zero fret wear! The neck finish is still satin (has not been made glossy by excessive playing wear)!

No mods, all original. Note, I did have to reflow some solder on the switch because I took the guitar apart to take measurements, but nothing was changed from factory.

Includes all original paperwork, hang tags, tools, cable!
Includes original Ibanez cardboard box!

Setup:

• polish frets (and all chrome hardware)
  
• clean and oil fretboard (Nomad F-ONE, yes this oil is safe for maple)
  
• Nomad TUNE-IT lubricant on nut and saddles
  
• Ernie Ball 10-46 strings
  
• original (bone) nut, slot depths are OK
  
• adjusted truss rod, neck relief to .010" (.254mm)
• string height and pickup heights adjusted
  
• intonation adjusted
• carnuba wax on body

String heights @12th (hold 1st):

• E 1.75mm
  
• A 2mm
  
• D 2mm
  
• G 2mm
  
• B 1.75mm
  
• e 1.5mm

Pickup heights:

• Neck: low side 3mm, high side 2.5mm
• Bridge: low side 5mm, high side 3mm

Blemishes:

• Misc small surface scratches (hard to photograph) on hardware and paint. Can be seen when light hits the body and certain angles. Nothing major.
  
• Scratch on rear chrome neck plate
  
• Volume knob lettering is not partially filled in with bronze color on the last two letters (factory imperfection)

If it wasn't for the small amount of surface scratches I'd rate this mint. It's pretty insane how nice it is for being 5 years old and used regularly!
