Ibanez AS73G Artcore, Metallic Purple Flat Overview

The Ibanez AS73G Artcore is a guitar crafted for refined jazz, rock, and blues tones. It's loaded with Classic Elite humbuckers to grant you a smooth definition and a rich, nuanced sound. Sounds which have plenty of bite and growl too! Because with the AS73G's versatile controls you can sculpt your tone with exceptional precision. It's an Ibanez masterpiece in both looks and sound.

What's more, its sonorous semi-hollow construction enhances the harmonic character of your playing. Expect a balanced response across the whole frequency range, with sonics that are both resonant and crystal-clear. And as for playability, the AS74G excels. A wondrously smooth walnut fretboard allows you to glide across the frets without resistance, lending fluidity to your music.

The heroic humbucker we all need

...it can only be the Classic Elite. And luckily, there are two of them on the AS73G for powerful, magical tones. The Classic Elite delivers a smooth, crisp sound with plenty of ferocious bite. From rich lows to clear, glassy highs, it's the perfect pickup for jazz, rock, and blues tones. Send every note soaring from the strings with articulation and dynamics; your sound will be sure to captivate anyone listening, whether its in the studio or onstage.

Craftsmanship. Unmatched.

The linden body of the AS73G demonstrates Ibanez's superior attention to detail. As well as its beautifully balanced tone, the body has also been crafted with two 'F' holes, giving you a wealth of airy resonance that only a semi-hollow construction can provide. Plus, it looks supremely retro too, aided by the metallic finish and dazzling gold hardware.

Built for fiery performances

The nyatoh neck might be sleek, but it has more than enough strength to beg the palm of any skilful, fearless guitarist, lending itself to wild gigs and lengthy studio sessions. And that's not all. The tone of nyatoh is resonant and warm, teaming perfectly with the balance of linden and the responsiveness of the humbuckers. Plus, thanks to its set-in design, every note will be projected with shimmering sustain, resulting in a stunning, full-bodied sound.

Attached to the nyatoh neck is a beautiful, bound walnut fretboard. Embellished with acrylic block inlays, its aesthetic pairs gorgeously with the blue finish of the body. It also contributes massively to tone. Walnut delivers brightness and definition with a woody midrange, perfect for speedy and intricate fretting techniques. Slide your fingers effortlessly across the frets and experience the wonders of such brilliant sound. Better still, walnut ages with grace and beauty, becoming warmer and softer the more you play. So, not only will you have a striking instrument to play with, but you will have one which accommodates your progressing skill.
