About This Product!
Description
Docs
If you thought the only good full or semi-hollow guitars were expensive (and the inexpensive ones weren't any good), think again. Ibanez Artcore guitars represent thinking that's way outside the box. No matter what kind of music you play - punk, alt rock, nu rock, whatever - if you're serious about adding rich tones to the mix, it's time to stop just thinking about it. With Ibanez Artcore, you can now afford to go full or semi-hollow. You can't afford not to!

Ibanez AFS75T Artcore Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitar Reviews
10 out of 10
"I think they mismarked the price tag on this!"
Feature:
I like the Bigsby Trem. However, if you crank on it too hard, you'll be tuning the guitar again. The floating bridge is another bit of versatility this guitar give you. Take it out of the box, spend some time tinkering with your own personal preferences - and you'll be happy.
Quality:
This does NOT look, feel, or play like a $370 dollar guitar. Mine was perfect right out of the box. No blemishes, no loose parts, no problems. Unless it somehow develops an electrical problem, I don't expect any problems from this gutar at all. It's very well made, substantial, and beautiful.
Value:
This is a lot more guitar than anyone would expect for the price. I would expect it to cost more, and I would pay more for it.
Desirability:
On a scale of 1 - 10, I give it an 11. This is a thing of beauty. When I'm not playing it, I just look at it. High quality, flawless, beautiful to look at, and sounds as good as it looks.
Sound:
I love the sound - you can make it sound just about any way you want it to sound. I think it's more versatile than a solid body. Some of the deep, full sounds this gives you aren't attainalbe with a solid body. Yet, you can get this guitar to do about anything you can do with a solid body.
Support:
Not Applicable - I have not had any problems.
Overall:
As I don't have a couple thousand dollars to pay for a Gretsch, I think I'll have this one for a long long time. Even if I did get my Gretsch some day, I would still keep this one. Before I bought this, I have a Guild 12 string, and a Washburn Solid Body electric. But, I always wanted a hollow body - Like a Gretsch. This Ibanez caught my eye, and the more I learned about it, the more I liked it. I tried it out, and I'm hooked. If I lost it, I would get another one - exactly the same.

Ibanez AFS75T Artcore Customer Review
Feature:
I was wildly imprest at the appearence of this baby!!! I have the transparent brown finish and it looks beautiful, you can see the grain of the maple lamenation through the satin glow... lovely.
Quality:
Materials are excellent! Beautiful wood, perfect binding, lovely finish, perfect action... what more is there to say?
Value:
Are you kidding me?!!!
Desirability:
If it were a woman , I'd marry it!
Sound:
The pick-ups are a tad thin and reedy. The neck pick-up is a little better then the bridge on mine. I don't know if that is typical of the instrument or not. The sound quality is perfectly fine in the context of what I like to play, jazz , blues, classic pop...
Support:
n.a.
Overall:
Of course , I aspire to the likes of a Christian style Gibson or a maybe a Grestch Country Gentleman, but for the price this beauty is the best semi hollow body I have ever played, period.
