Does anyone know what model my Ibanez is?

I bought an Ibanez electric guitar a few years ago. It cost me about £450 back then. I have tried to find the same model online, to find out how much they are selling for these day. However, I don't actually know the exact model because it doesn't have it written on anywhere. I know it's an RG series and has a TRS101 tremolo bridge. Obviously it has string stoppers, a five way pick- up selector and both neck and bridge pick- ups. From that description, does anyone know what model it is and how much it might be worth?

Cheers,

Steve.

Have you looked at these online Ibanez catalogues?

You can learn a lot about an Ibanez guitar by its serial number, such as the year it was made (then you'll know which catalogues to look in). See these pages:

This page at Ibanez.com has some tips for identifying and valuing an unknown Ibanez guitar.

Finally, is it possible that your guitar is a counterfeit? This warning from Ibanez's website says that there are lots of counterfeits being sold.
