Traditional style provides pure, full tone in a range of genres.
The AF95 Artcore Full Hollowbody from Ibanez is the most traditional design within the Artcore series. The full-hollowbody construction means there are no sound blocks in the body. This construction method produces a rich, complex tone, expressed with a pure voice and full body, the tonal characteristics most highly desired among the discerning jazz player. Jazz fans will recognize the Ibanez original Super 58, the preferred pickup of George Benson, Pat Metheny and John Scofield on their own Signature models. Warmth, balanced articulation, and excellent response are defining characteristics of the Super 58 pickups. Additional features include a 3-piece nyatoh/maple neck for a rich mid-low end and great resonance, a macassar ebony fretboard and a walnut bridge which transfers string vibration directly to the body, delivering a natural and warm tone.
