About Ibanez AS93BC

While the AS Artcore Expressionist AS93BC Hollow-Body Electric Guitar in Black is a versatile semi-acoustic instrument, it's more than just a guitar. It's a testament to Ibanez's commitment to innovation and quality. Designed to handle any music genre, this guitar features pickups mounted directly to the center block, enhancing sustain and eliminating feedback for a clear, rich sound.

For over a decade, Ibanez has been revolutionizing the hollow-body guitar market, offering a diverse range of designs from hybrid semi-hollow rockers to traditional jazz-boxes. The Artcore Expressionist line is a significant chapter in this ongoing story, offering a unique blend of classic design and modern features.

One of the standout features of the AS93BC is the Ibanez original Super 58 pickups. These pickups, favored by jazz legends like George Benson, Pat Metheny, and John Scofield on their signature models, offer warmth, balanced articulation, and excellent response. They're not just for jazz, though. Many funk guitarists have discovered that the Super 58s perform exceptionally well in a variety of musical situations.

The AS93BC also features a 3-piece Nyatoh/Maple neck, providing a rich mid-low end and great resonance. The Macassar Ebony fretboard produces tight lows and mid-range tones, along with a strong attack in the highs and quick response with rich sustain. Medium-sized frets enhance note accuracy, ensuring your music sounds as good as it feels to play.

The guitar's body is crafted from Linden for the top, delivering a natural and flat, yet accurate tone. The Bocote back and sides not only give this guitar an exotic appearance but also contribute to a powerful and warm sound.

The AS93BC is equipped with the Gibraltar Performer bridge, known for its rich sustain and tuning stability. The low-positioned saddles promise comfortable playability. Additionally, the Quik Change III tailpiece enables faster and easier string changing, making this guitar as practical as it is beautiful.

In summary, the AS Artcore Expressionist AS93BC Hollow-Body Electric Guitar in Black is a versatile, high-quality instrument that embodies Ibanez's commitment to innovation and quality. Whether you're a jazz aficionado or a funk enthusiast, this guitar is designed to deliver exceptional performance in any musical genre.
