Semi-Hollow electric guitar with Ibanez Infinity R humbuckers from the Artcore series
The Ibanez AS53 Artcore Semi Acoustic Guitar Transparent Black Flat is a 6-string electric guitar released for NAMM 2017 offering both quality workmanship and affordability. The back of the AS53-TKF is crafted from mahogany with a sapele top. The neck is an Artcore AS set-in neck made from mahogany featuring a bound rosewood fretboard with white dot inlays and comfortable medium frets.
The Artcore is reknowned for its tone, sustain and tuning stability. The semi-hollow body construction of the AS53 eliminates feedback intrusion. This guitar is equipped with Infinity R humbucker pickups at the neck and bridge pickup positions, offering rich, warm and broad tones. Chrome tuners allow quick and precise tuning whilst an ART-ST bridge and tailpiece securely hold the strings in place.
The main features of the Ibanez AS53 Artcore Semi Acoustic Guitar Transparent Black Flat include:
Was looking for an entry level jazz guitar and this one got very good revues on youtube so I decided to give it a shot. First impressions, very good build quality (mines an Indonesian), positive feel tuners, great acoustic sound and after a bit of setup, a really low action. No problem getting a jazzy sound from the neck pickup. I will probably add heavier strings later. Absolutely recommen this guitar as a quality all rounder.
