I think these ashbodied ones are pretty rare. Though mine is probably some earlier and has a rosewood fingerboard. This is the 2nd JB sunburst I've seen with an ash body. Hopefully someone a little more knowledgeable than me can help.
It does look a lot like pictures I've seen of Ibanez Silver Series Jazz basses - although I don't think they had the skunk stripe on the neck. Hello Hawkster - I can't help in dating your bass, but it looks in beautiful condition.įrom what I know, it's definitely from the Fuji Gen factory - Cimar was a brand used by Hoshino, the company which owns the Ibanez name. Just Cimar on Head and Made in Japan on neck plate. Ibanez Collectors World: Help dating a Cimar Base
