Proposed in 1984 in Japan, it is part of the Artist series known to have generated the best Ibanez guitars. This half body with 2 humbuckers with 2 volume and 2 tone. The handle is maple, 22 frets, rosewood fingerboard and Basswood body piece. The violin is very neat with an aesthetic dream.
UTILIZATION
Already very good with original Ibanez pickups, it becomes clearer with Di Marzio Paf or Seymour Duncan. It is mainly a guitar rock-blues style with an excellent tonal balance. Mixing microphones enabling several varieties of game (hard metal to avoid). The handle is very comfortable perfect for soloists fast.
SOUNDS
He prefers the sounds bluesy, rock and jazz with a good performance of the agreement. It is a captivating guitar with harmonics up to marry rock and acoustic amps depending on the desired effect. Like any semi-hollow, it will give the best with ropes deep draft.
OVERALL OPINION
Seems it aged well and its look is back in fashion.
It is similar to Ibanez AS series of vintage but more and it looks great on stage even at the side of its competitors Gibson. A play without moderation.
