IBANEZ BLAZER SERIES

IBANEZ BL1025

The Blazer series of strat-style guitars was introduced by IBANEZ from the early 1980s and reissued again between 1995 and 1999 (with the original old style Ibanez headstock) - I'm not certain that the BL1025 was available in the first production run but it was certainly in the 1995/1996 Ibanez catalog. The BL1025 was like the Blazer BL850 except with a Wilkinson tremolo. It had Blazer humbuckers at the bridge and neck with a single coil in the middle position.
