The Ibanez basses were luthite, a soft composite material with the consistency of pencil graphite whose structural stability was a hard outer finish/shell. Lucite is the see-through colored plastic, similar to lexan. Different stuff.
I heard those Ibanez basses smelled weird. No joke! It was mentioned in a BP magazine review.
I remember that stuff! It was on the Ibanez Ergodyne and those hideously ugly Cort Curbow basses. IIRC someone at FDP had a luthite Ibanez, removed the neck, and a chunk of the body came off, it was pretty soft under its outer shell. And it smelled.
