How many 2027's?

RXTN · 07-21-2008, 07:22 AM

Is there actual number of how many 2027's were made?

And when it was sold? Production years?

RG2027 production halted - editorial - Jemsite

No mention of numbers, but it is said to be really quite bad. I think they were made for one, maybe 2 years at the most, but I have a suspicion it's just one year in total. The amount of these will be very few aqt a guess, probably less than 1000, maybe even 500, not sure, but apparently it just didn't sell, and noone cared about them untill about 2-3 years later when people started trying to get their hands on them, and since then demand for them has only increased I think.

Wow, really? Under 1000?

It seems like every Ibanez I would like to own only lasted about a year, such as the 2027X and the 1077XL.

That'd be at a guess, you see more for sale than 540s7's, and there's 400 of them, more than the UV7GR (also about 400), and kind of on a similar scale in frequency as PWH's (maybe a little more so my guess would be 1000 tops really, but that's purely based on how many you see for sale.

There must be some kind of rule, I just can't figure out which way the relation goes...
The harder the guitar is to get, the more you want it?
Or the more you want the guitar, the harder it is to get?

For me, I think it's the second option... I've wanted some guitars even when they were still in production, but I didn't want them enough to buy them right away, or it wasn't good timing financially... and then they go out of production before I've had the chance. Sometimes I don't even find out about them until after they've gone out of production, because they were only around for one year, or sometimes only one market.

I suppose it can be explained by the fact that my taste in guitars is a bit peculiar anyway, and the longest-running production models seem to be the most 'bland' and 'safe' ones, attracting beginners, conventional players etc.
