As of 4.4.dev3: If you're going to use ItemList.get_v_scroll_bar in a _ready callback, then you should do it in a script attached to the ItemList Node in question AND await a process frame, or you won't be able to properly access the internal Node's properties.

Also, be careful when calling ItemList.get_v_scroll_bar a second time. It appears to have the side effect of instantiating and returning a separate Control Node.

Rather, just call this method once in the _ready function of the ItemList Node, do what you gotta do with the VScrollBar in the same script, and if you need to access it elsewhere, save a reference to it and access it through that variable instead of calling get_v_scroll_bar again

Example code:

extends ItemList

func _ready() -> void:
	await get_tree().process_frame
	var bar : VScrollBar = get_v_scroll_bar()
	bar.hide() ## Will succesfully hide the VScrollBar.

extends ItemList

func _ready() -> void:
	var bar : VScrollBar = get_v_scroll_bar()
	bar.hide() ## Will fail to hide the VScrollBar.
