: I have an acoustic Ibanez guitar V-300. Can anyone give me some information about it? //FH
I also have one and can’t find a damn thing out about it!
the guy that sold it too me claims it a solid top. I dont think so.
I have an original V 300 Ibanez acoustic from the early 1980s. They do have solid spruce tops with laminate sides and backs. They aren’t Martins or Guilds, but I still play mine in a wide variety of semi professional settings–and it sounds better than any Martin, and many Taylors.

Hi,
Ihave one too bought in Scotland in 1983. Check out http://www.vintageibanez.com for the specs…(mahogany back/sides, spruce top)..i don’t think the top is solid..Mine is OK but not particularly good for sustain, I find the string tension also extremly tight for a dreadnought..have moved on to Martins now..tho I still love their Vintage electrics from 78-80 period.. (check out PF models on same site.)
The V-300 doesn’t have a solid top; it’s 3-ply spruce. But they play and sound great for their entry-level price.

Hey Guys,
I’ve had one for about 5 years now and love it. Got it at a pawnshop for $100. Couldn’t have made a better deal. They had a book that said its original price was $485.00. So, far I don’t know anything else about it, except that I love it, it sounds great and at that price I made a great deal.
I have one too, it´s a V310, December of 1981. I have not found anything about it! Please if you Know something tell me
Thanks

Any thoughts on this guitar. I have had mine since new from approx 1978 and would not be without it. It is as new with no modifications.Serial number: L785413. I would be keen to hear from other owners.
I got mine in Japan in the summer of 1979, but according to the serial number it was built in 1978. I love the feel and sound of it, but it weights a ton! After four weary sets with that thing around my shoulders I can barely stand up. I retired it a few years ago and now use newer Ibanezs for gigs.
L785413. your guitar was made in December of 1978 it was the5,413 guitar made that month
I got given an ibanez musician it has 2 octaves and an overdrive switch the bridge and keys are gold plated can you possibly tell me how much it is worth.Although i would not part with it as it is an absolut feat of craftsman ship and plays/sounds exallent. i’m not sure what year it is but it has a natural would finish and a through neck.
Hi, I´m Markus from Germany…
You can check the year as followed:
Have a look at the Serial-Number. The first letter ist for the Month as (A=January, B=February C=March an so on, and then the two followed numbers are standing for the year!
Sorry for my very bad english !
Best regards Markus

For Ibanez acoustic models from the 70s, the ” HT-75-121″ appearing on the label is not a serial number nor does it refer to year or model. I have seen this on 6 & 12 string Ibanez acoustics. Check the neck block inside the sound hole for the serial number.

Soundslike a 2388 rickenbacker copy
I77 in the serial means it was made in September 77, when Ibanez was mainly making copies before the law suit.
I have a Ricky 4001 bass copy which is fine but is the bolt on neck version
At this time all copies (except Fenders) were in two price classes – cheap with bolt on necks and poor electronics and fixed neck with good electronics.
If you can send me a picture I can confirm.
