Get the Ibanez Artcore AM53TF, and start playing with big, fat hollowbody tone today.
The guitar is crafted with a sapele top, back, and sides, which sing with plenty of warmth and punch, while the nyatoh neck adds unmistakable midrange warmth. The guitar’s tight body dimensions make it extremely comfortable to play and deliver a bit more of a focused tone. All the while, a pair of Infinity humbuckers can take your tone from clean to bluesy crunch.
Streamlined body dimensions
The size of some semi-hollowbody electric guitars can be a bit of a stumbling block for some players. Not so with the Ibanez AM53. Its smaller body is comfortable to solidbody players, while still holding true to what makes semi-hollowbody guitars sing with such an identifiable sound. Using a sapele body and nyatoh neck combination, the AM53 offers plenty of warmth to go with its clear snappy attack. With the Ibanez AM53, you’re sure to appreciate the perfect culmination of tone and size.
Custom humbuckers deliver warm and creamy tone
Ibanez designed the Artcore AM53’s Infinity pickups to give you warm and well-balanced tone. They really bring out the depth and tonal complexity in the AM53’s all-sapele body. At the same time, these pickups do an amazing job suppressing noise and reducing the feedback that tends to plague semi-hollowbody guitars. Players can’t believe how great these pickups sound for such an affordable instrument.
All of the fat semi-hollow tones you love
Semi-hollowbody guitars are used in most genres of music. The Ibanez Artcore AM53 is great for jazz, rockabilly, and many other styles of music. Don’t forget that hollowbodies have also been used in rock ‘n’ roll, fusion, and even country bands.
