I’ve been trying to trade my Mesa Mark Five:35 for a while now. I liked it, it’s a fantastic amp, I’m just a Marshall guy.
Some guy on Craigslist sent a list of things he’d be willing to trade. So I picked these two and he agreed.
I hate driving but I drove an hour each way to do the deal and I must say I’m very pleased.
The Fender is an American Standard (I think). The serial number says N5 so that should be 1995 but there’s a 50 year sticker that says 1996 on it. So it’s probably a late 95 or early 96.
The Ibanez is a 2018 Prestige RG655-GK. Still has the plastic on the spring cover plate on the back. The action is insanely low with no buzz. I may have to raise it. Sounds blasphemous though.
Both are in great shape. I’m stoked.
