General
With the AF71F in Tobacco Brown, Ibanez targets two groups of people at once. Its price makes it rather appealing to beginner guitarists, looking for their first hollow-body guitar. Besides that, this Artcore guitar is also great for more advanced jazz cats, who'd like a proper guitar for small pub gigs, for instance. All in all, it offers plenty of value for money. In fact, it's a small miracle that Ibanez manages to offer this absolute gem at this price!
Construction
With its maple body and its mahogany neck with a rosewood fretboard, the AF71F in Tobacco Brown has a pleasant core sound with a nice bite to it. The Classic Elite Mini pickup, designed by Ibanez themselves, offers the perfect medium output and helps prevent feedback. As you might expect from Ibanez, this guitar's hardware is highly durable, and everything is finished very neatly. In short, it's a gorgeous hollow-body guitar at a remarkably low price.
Artcore neck
One of the Ibanez Artcore series' greatest advantages is the type of neck it uses. It's a set-in mahogany Artcore-AF neck that is set deeply into the body. Besides allowing for excellent stabilty, it also has a very comfortable heel, and results in far greater sustain for the guitar!

Levering supersnel, prijs superscherp tov. concurrenten. Setje flatwound 0.11 erbij en een goede standaard en je bent helemaal klaar om te beginnen, ook zonder versterker. Bax toppertje!

Prijs/kwaliteit van deze gitaar is ongekend en hij laat zijn concurrenten ver achter zich:
- waanzinnig mooie klank
- ontstemt niet of auwelijks
- goed vervaardigd, voelt solide
- prachtig uiterlijk
Ik had geen idee wat ik kocht toen ik deze gitaar aanschafte. Hij zag er jazzy en klonk wel lekker, maar inmiddels is deze gitaar een van de prominentere gitaren uit mijn selectie geworden. Ik gebruik 'm in mijn jazzbandje en in mijn 40's RnB bandje.
Het is waar dat je alleen het neck-element ter beschikking hebt en dat de gitaar daardoor enigszins beperkt is. Maar voor mij geldt: als ik andere stijlen ga spelen pak ik wel een andere gitaar :-)
Beter dan dit wordt het niet voor die prijs.
