Ibanez AS93SP Artcore Expressionist Black Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar

General

An elegant blend of luxury and adaptability, the Ibanez AS93SP can effortlessly slot into any style. Part of the Artcore Expressionist Series, this model features an internal centre block, hidden just beneath the soundboard to limit feedback and boost the natural sustain - a detail that immediately sets this model up for every jazz and rock genre and sub-genre, while the thinline basswood body gives this model its balanced, full and resonant acoustic tone. Coated in high-gloss polyurethane paint work and decked out with gilded hardware, this is a guitar that brings all of the flair as well as the comfort.

The Ibanez AS93SP: Outstanding Build, Astonishing Comfort

The super-stable AS neck has a three-piece nyatoh and maple construction, which adds richness to the foundation and puts some extra emphasis on the mids, while the AS Expressionist profile speeds up the playability. The deluxe Macassar ebony fretboard, meanwhile, adds light and tight attack and a little more sustain, supporting a fast response whether you're firing off rhythms or leads. Both the playing comfort and control is given a further boost by the twenty-two medium frets and, for some all-important refinement, the fretboard comes outlined in cream binding and adorned with intricate Tree of Life inlay work.

Flexible Tone

Two Super 80 dual-coils, each adorned with iconic Flying Finger engraved covers, serve up defined and clean amplified sound that, via the set of two volume pots, two tone pots and three-way switch can be adapted to support an array of playing styles. The entire build of the AS93SP is reinforced by a Gibraltar Performer bridge, which packs the sustain with richness while firming up the tuning, and a Quik Change Classic tailpiece helpfully speeds up the restringing process. Finished with a set of closed machine heads, this semi-hollow electric guitar comes fully kitted out for gigging life.
