Throughout the years the Artcore line has provided excellent hollow body and semi-hollow body instruments for working musicians. The Artcore Expressionist Vintage series continues this tradition with guitars dressed to recapture the style of the good old days. And once you try one, you will immediately find that it fits and feels comfortable much like your old leather jacket.

Its stylish semi-hollow aged finished body is made to handle almost any musical challenge imaginable. The ASV93's 3-piece Mahogany/Maple set-in neck features a bound Ebony fretboard with Aged white block inlays, medium frets for a super smooth feel. Jazz fans will recognize the original Ibanez Super 58 pickups--the preferred pickup of George Benson, Pat Metheny, and John Scofield, in their own Signature models --equally at home in a variety of genres. Warm, balanced articulation and excellent response characterize the Super 58s. Sure Grip III knobs provide non-slip functionality and an ART-1 bridge provides improved sustain and tuning stability.
