Ibanez AF95 Artcore Expressionist

Guitar "made in china" hollow bodie of very good quality, it has a handle 22 boxes, two doubles a micro average output level (for its very soft!), The settings are kind gibson (2volumes, 2Tone ) and the handle is school.
The bridge is a tune-o-matic and tailpiece (which is of beautée on this guitar!) Is a block connected to splice the vehicle.

UTILIZATION

The handle is a pure joy, only access to the latest case is a complicated but nothing is normal about the hollow-bodies redibitoire nothing.
The guitar is imposing but light, parfaitemant used up, it is very well balanced (no dip the handle ...)
To get a good sound, it's easy, plug!

SOUNDS

This guitar rakes much broader than the classic jazz and blue, I play the queen of the stone age on it, it goes very well (a condition to stand a 2/3metres the amp to avoid the feedback of the box was empty ). There have extreme distortion and for how she gets out of metal or feedback level but hey, you've seen??
I use it on my Valveking like my laney, no worries, she did her little carractère, I love playing rock on the scratching!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a small month just for the look (it is just sublime), I can not do without! Know before connetre the scratches, I did not like ibanez! I tried a lot of scrapes before buying this model but do not have the foix this sound and the look for a ridiculous price (friends and other Gretsch Electromatic Peavey Rockingham, you can Rabiller ...) in Moreover, it is better finished than the above named Electromatic for half the price, this regal a scratch!

Hello,

For my part, I was somewhat disappointed by this guitar, of course, is easy to play but unfortunately I
happened not set at all (sonovente.com). Moreover, the model certainly made in China, electronics
Quality is more than average (breath) and impossible to correct without change (also expensive). Moreover,
the quality of wood used involves the use of rods rather low if we just stay.
A good guitar for beginners no more.

Thank you for correcting me if I'm wrong.

UTILIZATION

Yes, the handle is nice and suits me.
Ergonomics are good, the light guitar.
The access to the treble is not easy but that's normal in this kind of guitar.
You do not get easily a good son.Pour my part, I changed my guitar because of it.

SOUNDS

Yes, suits my style of music.
I was looking for his "dark" but I have not managed to get it and there was the breath that comes from the electronic guitar.
I play with a pro Line6 preamp simulator very good.
I hate having the breath and sound distorted when I play jazz. I like crystal clear sound, or rather in the bass.

OVERALL OPINION

6 months every day.
I got an Epiphone for the same price and is far superior.
The positive feature of this guitar, the neck is easy.
I personally think it is better to seek a better opportunity and try it before buying. In terms
instrument, sites like Sonovente.com are really risky.

Japanese guitar brand made in China (China's big!), Very nice look and nice finish, plastic imitation pearl (and yes the nature of faith is prohibited or regulated ébéno).
the color is lighter than the photo. appearance sunburst light, curly maple, beautiful.
two microphones, neck and bridge,
delivered in a string of Adario, I'll put nets ropes course is on (change strings after strings n'st if not a pro, changing strings on art core).
adjustments as may be complicated if one does not care to give some pointers, mine came pretty well set
price about 570 € but she was delivered for free shipping woodbrass € 423.
Attention! is a 3 / 4 body, does not fit all your fly boxes, fly box of 335: forget it! choose a Hard Case for Jumbo

UTILIZATION

handle a treat, easy as I do not know until then (even my Fender Mex is less easy), but it only recently that I have (I will return later), light weight.
I am tall she is
Access to treble is like on any kind of guitar not that easy, just like on a Les Paul
Having a jumbo acoustic, ergonomics fit me much better, it seems smaller in body width and I feel more comfortable with it ... I was dreaming,
with the bend is super easy ... you can play for hours without tiring.
thickness of the body 7 cm

Sound? well it depends!

Obviously in light, not connected to an amp, it sounds pleasant enough but slightly, if I compare to my Jumbo is a 3 / 4 body, and the sound is rather quiet, perfect for exercises without disturbing the neighbor room.
but it advances so it is easy.
connected to an electro acoustic amp is a super clean sound (I have not explored yet) no breath (if you do not put too much volume side micro guitar when you're too close), Ibanez 35 watts troubadour, pay attention to réglges volumes, stand too close, becasue Larsen.
epiphone lamp to my amp, I find the sound great, we must explore the possibilities with microphones from the box and knobs on Epiphone Valve Junior, very simple ... no feedback (for now) even fairly close, warm and Sustain Extra
I have not tried it on my Peavey Prowler 45 W

SOUNDS

yet the sound is somewhat defined supra, fairly clear, not at all messy, I have not tried his bold, if indeed we can get it! (and yes, see far!)
So amp Ibanez Troubadour = clear sound with the Epiphone Valve Junior: both, clear sound (less) and sometimes more ... but I do not know what to call this sound or sounds: say more power (and bluesy triturating Abily rock) this amp is very simple you must adjust the guitar by his taste and it avoids getting lost,
I am a simple guy, so .... but I prefer the sound to the Les Paul that I sold, although this is not the same as
with Peavey: not tried it yet, I will return, with the basic test sounds produced on the Epiphone Valve Junior (no settings except volume), the settings on the Peavey is much more extensive course.

For the valve junior attentionau feedback if the volume pickups Ibanez AF tros high volume between 2 and 3

I guess I'll have to keep me away from this tube amp too powerful for the room housing the

So I'll come back later

well no! with the Peavey, I almost sound I want, and even other sounds until saturated fat rather that this is not the vocation of the guitar, pedal boost etc. .. Peavey brand too, so it plays well and the sound is often a must, it's amazing, I am at 3, 5-4 m, it rules! play with the knobs on the guitar after the selected setting on the amp is very varial, but not really difficult.

OVERALL OPINION

this is very recent acquisition which I welcome ... so my opinion is refine, but I'm excited for its looks, sounds already obtained and its ease of play, in short I find it beautiful, generous and simple: great lady for me
value for money unbeatable, I love it
So we can afford a high-level guitar for a beginner budget ... I will keep this guitar for a long time, I know
