An neck built for sound and stability

The Ibanez AM2000H Artstar Prestige employs a range of features that make playing it an exhilarating experience. Crafted from African mahogany and S-Tech roasted maple, the 3-piece neck is set into the body rather than bolted on. This allows you to play with a warm, full-bodied sound that holds onto every note with glistening sustain. And better still, the manufacturing process of such a divine neck enhances its practical attributes even more. 'S-Tech' refers to the way the wood been heat-treated, an innovative process that Ibanez are the first to employ for instruments, and it improves the neck's stability. Mahogany is already exceptionally robust, and now on the AM2000H its sturdiness is simply astounding. Don't hold back, whatever your playing style, however aggressive, this neck can take it.

As well as showcasing incredible practical benefits, mahogany and maple offer brilliant sonic qualities. Experience the warmth and resonance of mahogany whilst projecting each note with maple's stunning clarity. Maple is perfect for gigging with thanks to the minimal feedback it provides, meaning you can play at volume without ever sounding muddy. The ebony fretboard attached on top is truly exquisite too. With a naturally high oil content, its smooth finish lends itself to speedy and skilful fretting, so you will never be slowed down when sliding across the fretboard. And its superb durability means it won’t wear away from excessive playing.

A brilliant body

Giving this guitar a beautiful vintage aesthetic is its anigre body. Shaped with a double cutaway for easy access to higher frets, anigre is wonderfully lightweight. You won’t ever tire of carrying this stunning instrument. Its tonal properties are similar to that of mahogany, meaning it teams perfectly with the neck. Project a tone that emanates immersive warmth and resonance as well as brilliant attack. Such an exquisite body teams perfectly with the highly responsive pickups to present you with a dynamic tone.
