Super 58 Humbuckers

The Ibanez AS93FM delivers tones that are perfect for jazz, blues, and rock. Its pair of Super 58 Humbuckers produce a warm and clean tone with a balanced articulation and excellent response. It also offers the perfect amount of overdrive for a smooth lead. These pickups have been used by artist such as George Benson, Pat Metheny, and John Scofield, proving that they can enhance your performance for a 'jazz clean' tone, as well as 'blues-dirty' for a versatile performance.

Exquisite tone and style

Thanks to its flamed maple body, you are provided with a focussed tone, along with an impressive sustain, crisp tone, and plenty of character. With a low-end response, defined upper midsection and a high-end sparkle, its body delivers an ideal voicing for chiming chords and super bright leads.

Its maple wood has been crafted into a thin design, which also helps to enhance your overall sound. It delivers jazz tones with an excellent midrange to complement your playing, while the smooth contours make the Ibanez an incredibly comfortable guitar to play. A pair of classic 'F' sound holes are also featured on the soundboard, allowing the natural sound to be projected acoustically. These elegantly cut holes also provide a classic look that many guitarists associate with the 1950s era.

Maximum comfort

The Artcore Expressionist has been specifically designed to meet the demands of today's cutting-edge players, offering superb craftsmanship and hardware for the best sound. As well as proving a resonant body with comfortable contours, a three-piece mahogany/maple neck is also incorporated for added comfort and an enhanced tone. This three-piece neck is mounted with a bound ebony fingerboard with acrylic block inlays. Ebony is a great choice for fingerboards, as its natural smoothness reduces finger fatigue ideal for fast playing styles and provides the perfect platform for percussive styles such as tapping or hammer-ons.
