The Ibanez Artcore AFJ91 Hollowbody Electric Guitar features a Spruce top with Flamed Maple back and sides, as well as a handsome clean white binding on body, headstock, and fingerboard. Pearl block inlays in the Rosewood fingerboard gives a classic look. Expertly crafted set-in neck construction ensures body liveliness and sustain. The Artcore AFJ91's 3-piece Maple/Mahogany neck has proven its reliability through the years on numerous Ibanez hollow and semi-hollow models.

The Ibanez AFJ91 Artcore packs a single Super 58 Custom pickup which compliments the guitar's hollow body design beautifully. This is the preferred pickup of George Benson, Pat Metheny, and John Scofield on their own Signature models. While the Super 58 Custom is favored by Jazz guitarist, Eric Krasno, a funk guitarist, has been proving the Super 58 Custom pickups are capable of much more and at home in a variety of genres.

For a decade now, Ibanez has energized the hollow-body segment with a wide range of designs-with everything from rockin' hybrids to traditional jazz-boxes. The Expressionist line begins yet another chapter in the Artcore story. Built with tone woods selected for their beauty as well as their musicality, the Expressionist line covers the wide range of styles for which Ibanez hollow and semi-hollow bodies are known.

Excellent instrument! The guitar looks great and plays even better - an amazing feat, considering the very affordable price. Kudos (a million of them) to Ibanez for keeping great sounding, professional level instruments affordable for full-time musicians of today. The guitar sounds perfectly balanced and chords come out clear and open. Single note solos are well defined with a nice attack and smooth sustain. The tone is full, warm with a clear bottom end and sweet high end. Sounds great even at the highest fret position. If you are looking for a Jazz guitar without the cost associated with a Gibson 175 ES or L-5 CES this instrument will bring you the tone any professional would be happy with - the rest is up to you :)
