This is a Fujigen made pre serial number "Gneco" EG. However this one has the original "mismatched" Maxon pickups that were a common sight on Ibanez LPs from this era here in Australia. At first it looked odd having such a mismatched pair in a new guitar and I remember thinking back in the day that people must have swapped them out except of course, no one really did on guitars like this back then. 2ff7e9595c
