WTB - ibanez rg550 - neon or MIJ Sabre

Looking for a rg550. Sold a day a couple of years back and regret it. After a rfr (red) or dy(yellow). 

Budget not great, so battered but structurally sound guitars considered.

Cheers

Unsurprisingly there weren't any at the NW guitar show. Although there was a dude with some necks and a couple of bodies. Hate guitar breakers.

Bump for a fluorescent guitar need.

El bumpo people.

Monday bump - I have no patience.

Nearly bought a guitar yesterday, only to find it was a cut and shut.

Anyone got a bright RG550 or even a MIJ 90s sabre?

I'm also looking for something similar gusman, this is what worries me about buying from Ebay, I saw an RG 550 auction end there Sunday, £385, it looked a clean guitar, but who knows, I think I will wait and buy one through the forum here, I'm in no massive rush, I still have my little black encore, which I bought from a guitar tutor back in 1995 for £30, might even treat it to some new strings .

I have a Heartfield Talon that's not getting much use. Basically an MIJ RG550 with a different headstock, Di Marzio's and an OFR. It's in frost red so slightly sparkly but not really neon.

PM me if you're interested.

Thanks @drwiddly but I've got my heart set on an Ibanez after selling one a couple of years ago. And ideally with an edge trem, as it's the best I've tried.

No worries mate. Good luck with your search. If I see anything suitable I'll let you know.
