Manufacturer's Description for Ibanez AF75D Artcore Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitar

This upgraded hollow-body Artcore features an all-maple body and clean-sounding Ibanez ACH Artcore pickups. As always with Ibanez, the construction of this Artcore model is top-notch, providing easy playability - and gorgeous looks. Its set neck design gives the AF75D a pure tone and tons of sustain. The neck is mahogany with a bound rosewood fingerboard and 22 large frets. This is a classic jazz box-styled guitar, without the typically hefty price tag. Discover the expressive tones and versatility of a hollow-body instrument like the AF75D.

When Artcore guitars debuted in summer 2002, they turned the music industry upside down. No longer were full and semi-acoustic guitars just big expensive jazz boxes for jazz players, even some of Ibanez' competitors bought them (you can't make this stuff up!). With Artcore guitars you get an amazingly affordable price plus the quality and tone you expect from Ibanez, the guitar company with over four decades of experience making full and semi-acoustic guitars. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Ibanez products.

4.5 out of 5 (34 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "The Blue And The Orange"
Sound: I liked it so much I bought two of them, one orange and one blue. I had them professionally set up for .010s, and intonated. I had them change the jack plug to a better one as well. They told me they had to pound a couple of the frets on one of them back into place. All in all, they said it was a good deal for the price. I played them both through two different amps, one being a 50 watt Marshall Valvstate, and the other being a Carvin Nomad. The guitar is quite versatile. With either amp you can go from soft country to jazz to some pretty loud and screaming rock with some controllable feedback as long as you are standing in the right place, and can pivot your pinky on the volume and tone knob. You can get a nice dirty honky tonk sound that would make Keith Richards smile. Everyone that I've let play them is in absolute awe. They thought I was nuts when I traded in my Les Paul to get these, but they are believers now. If you aren't used to playing an arch top, give yourself some time to play with it and whatever amp you are going to use. Especially if you intend to rock out. It will do it, but you have to work with it. Feature: The only accessorie I wish Ibanez would make for these is a good case. If you buy one of these get a case for it. Quality: You may have to tweak some of the hardware. The pick ups sound fine to me at all volumes. When properly intonated the neck feels quite comfortable. I like the fact that it isn't as heavy as a Les Paul, but it is wider, and that also takes some getting used to. For the price you can't argue with what you are getting for your money. If you are an accomplished musician you can make this puppy sing any song you want. Value: I would say these guitars are a definite bargain. Manufacturer Support: I've never dealt with Ibanez directly. The Wow Factor: These guitars called to me. I couldn't say no. I wish they made a green sunburst, I'd buy it in a heart beat. The colors were what attracted me, then I started playing it, and the sound and feel just clicked. That was before I even plugged it in. When I plugged it in it was magical. Then I kept looking at the price, and tried to figure out what might be wrong with it. For that price I figured it must have a crack down the back or something. Then I saw it was made in China. Part of me had a problem with that, but it looked, played, and sounded great. The next thing I knew I said I want this and that one over there too. Overall: When it's my turn to join the big band in the sky, I'm going to try to take these with me.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "Reasons why this guitar is a safe bet for most any guitarist."
Sound: Warm in the midranges, but can bite and squeal when you twist the strings blues-style. Comfortable sound for a variety of music types... even does well in distortion. Feature: I gave this one a 10 because of the features for the price. The bound edges throughout are well done. The neck, stand-on (violin-style) bridge, adjustable harmonics, and smooth machine heads are very well done! I didn't want or need a trem on this one, so the AF75D fit the bill perfectly. The features are as good or better than guitars that cost 3X more! Quality: The box is flawless. The finish and hardware are top-rate. Again, very much better than the price would normally indicate. Value: Worth many times the price! Plain and simple... Manufacturer Support: No problems with Ibanez. They're a player's company. They're not Fender, but they make their own guitars and have a good idea about what guitarists want. The Wow Factor: Great colors! Excellent finish, and phenominal price. Overall: It is likely that I'll have this one for a very long time. If anything, I might get another one to set up for more rock-style playing.
