Artcore players represent a range of musical genres, but the Ibanez AFJ81 Artcores are dedicated to the jazz guitarists. That's probably obvious enough if you know your old school jazz boxes. Wooden bridges. Narrow frets. 20-fret fingerboard sets the neck pickup as far from the guitar's bridge as possible, resulting in that warm, authentic, jazz tone. And to top it off: The AFJ models come equipped with high quality flatwound strings of course!
