This is my 2007 Ibanez VBT-700. Its in mint condition with only the smallest of chips on the bottom of one of the Vs.
I have had this guitar since october 2007 and when i bought it from dolphin music in liverpool it was the last one in the UK.

Ibanez no longer make this guitar anymore as it infringed on the copyright of another companys guitar and ended up in a lawsuit. this guitar will never be made again and is collectable and very rare.

Would prefer to swap for an ESP Eclipse II black cherry or ESP LTD EC-1000 blue or black cherry or black and gold with EMGS

Originally the guitar came with ibanez tuners and dimarzio D Activator humbuckers, but i liked their sound so i put them in my les paul. I had a zakk wylde EMG set (81 and 85) installed and sperzel locking tuners. the guitar now sounds like hell on earth. Most people know what EMGS are all about, they have psychotic output and a higher frequency range the most standard passive pickups

THE RESERVE IS SET AT A REASONABLE AMOUNT FOR THE GUITAR

heres the info on the pickups:

The EMG-81 is a high output pickup designed especially for the lead guitarist. It was actually developed in 1979 along with the EMG-58. Like most EMG's, it wasn't heavily advertised until 1981. The EMG-81 has the familiar U-shaped humbucking structure but replaces the pole pieces with steel bars and a smaller ceramic magnet. The EMG-81 is at its best for high volume overdrive. It has become the choice for metal and extreme players alike, Kirk Hammett from Metallica and Kerry King of Slayer to name only two. Distortion during lead passages is consistent, sustain is long and the breakup fades smoothly. The ceramic magnet in combination with wide aperture steel poles lend a quick attack but the tone stays nice and fat at the same time. Perfect if you're the only guitarist in the band, and need to switch from rhythm to lead and still keep the band moving. Another great thing about the EMG-81 is it's quiet. If you're playing at really high gain the last thing you need is noise. If you're looking for exceptional qualities in a high output pickup, the EMG-81 is the one. Two 81's are featured in Kirk Hammett's Signature ESP Guitar, the KH-4. The EMG Pro-Series KH-21 also features Kirkís usual dual 81 set-up for retrofit into any Stratocaster* style guitar.

The EMG-85 was developed as a replacement for our original EMG-58. We still manufacture the EMG-58 on occasion, but the newer EMG-85 is different than the original 58. Both models have characteristics that are admirable, but the 85 won out in the end. Although the EMG-85 has more measurable output than the 81, its frequency response and string interface are different. The 85 uses two Alnico magnet loaded coils with a wide aperture to maintain a beefy low end and a fatter top end. Itís a perfect choice as a rhythm pickup in combination with an 81 in the bridge, which is the same pickup combination used by Zakk Wylde. The midrange has better definition and doesn't get foggy or muddy in the rhythm position either. Steve Lukather uses the 85 as his lead pickup in the bridge position of his Ernie Ball Signature "Luke" model. It has loads of output and isn't muddy. The 85 has a natural tone that works great as a rhythm and blues pickup. It appeared on the later Guild Bluesbird (designed by George Gruhn) model which was a favorite of blues player Buddy Guy for years. The EMG-85 works best if you like the natural distortion that comes from overdriving the front end of your amp. Under any conditions it responds accurately to your technique.
