The Ibanez ART100 is a great looking, great sounding guitar. With a pair of Artcore pickups and sleek finishes, the Ibanez ART100 rocks.

The more recent ARX and ART single cutaway offer striking finishes, active pickups and more modern variations on the set-neck Artist theme at unprecedented low prices.

I don't plan on ever selling it, in fact, I'm looking at buying another one.
Sound
EXTREMELY VERSITAL! I'm in a Christian metal band and a worship band and there are no boundaries to the amount of tones you can get from this guitar. I have played almost every Ibanez guitar (accept for custom models)and the only guitar I think is more versital is the SA. The neck is very comfortable, maybe even more so than the wizards. If you are a metalhead who wants to hear how it sounds just listen to anything by As I Lay Dying after 2006 (An Ocean between Us has the most guitar). Very distinct tone, yet very expressive, articulate and seems to remind you of something that you've heard before and liked. I found that the perfect death metal tone is to pear it up with a Crate "Flexwave" or Krank "Revolution". Punk: Marshall MG; Acoustic: Crate "Flexwave" (great amp, I highly reccomend it); Blues: Peavey "Windsor". Peared w/ an EMG 81, it could just be the best guitar for metal in the WORLD. With Duncan SHPG-1 it could be greatest blues guitar in the world. BUY THIS GUITAR!

The Wow Factor
The finish is superb and the inlay on the 12th fret complements is perfectly. but, going on just finish I would get an S prestige or maybe a '57 Gibson Les Paul goldtop
