1980 Ibanez LR-10 Designed for and by Lee Ritenour |
Lee Ritenour himself was a huge fan of this guitar and played it many of his lives in 1980's, exclusively on his album 'Rit' - where he added stronger elements of pop, while keeping with his distorted sound.
Speaking of the maintenance, this guitar stays 40 years in elegant shape. Cosmetic-wise, ivory bindings are worn at moderate level, and there are signs of oxidation on tail piece and bridge. Truss rod is adjusted for least curvature but I leave to you the further swing. So here is the conclusion: for a jazz/rock fusion player, you will be regretting for long if you miss out the chance of encountering this masterpiece.
