Nothing like a blast from the past. As long as it’s got modern tweaks, appointments and consistency. The Artist is one of the first Ibanez original designs, the affordable double-cutaway alternative to the other famous mahogany double-humbucker. The set-neck Iceman with its mahogany/humbucker power is the most easily identifiable radical guitar shape-from any distance. They’ve modified the funky pawnshop-inspired Jet King by switching out the original humbucker with a high-output exposed polepiece humbucker for stronger leads. Think ‘50s greaser guitar with ‘70s hotrodding.
