It's a 1983 Ibanez Roadstar II custom which looks wicked (far better than my crappy cellphone photos) with the birdseye sunburst body and cream pickups/binding. I have always liked these guitars and consider them strong contenders to stuff like Mexi and Jap strats, especially the 3x single coil setup ones like these. This one is quite traditionally strat-sounding with the 5-way switch, even more so than many strats I've played. I'm not usually a fan of rosewood fretboards on strats (maple just looks and feels better to me), but this one is something quite special.
Will probably tweak it with new strings and bring the action up a bit (it's like subterranean low at the mo, more so than what I'm used to) but its one of those beauties which sounds mint stock-standard, which seems to be something these 70's and early 80's Ibanez guitars were really good at. Cranked it out with the new rock/alternative band I'm playing last week and it held ground well considering I usually use my SG or Explorer with them, though I think it will be better suited to the pop outfit I'm also in.
Now... if I can make it through Xmas without buying anything else, i should be okay...
And I used to play a samick my dad bought for 'us kids' back in the days before I bought my own guitar. But yeah ok, I have to admit for electrics I'm mostly an Ibanezbian
