Ibanez AMH100FM (Dark Violin Sunburst)

The AM was released by Ibanez for the first time in the early ”80s. Though smaller in size than other semi-hollow bodies, this guitar provides warm, punchy tone and abundant sustain. It offers the added benefit being compact enough that players more accustomed to a solid body electric will feel right at home on this popular Artcore model.

The parallel histories of Jazz music and the hollow-body electric guitar are inextricably linked and manifest in the professional-grade Artstar series. The influences of these legendary instruments are immediately apparent with a bone nut, ebony fretboard, and Ibanez's signature Super 58 custom pickups. The critical eye will appreciate the attention to detail poured into these instruments like the smoothness of the fretboard and the skill applied to the fretwork, generally found on instruments costing twice as much. The Artstar embodies the pure jazz-box and the continual evolution the genre represents.

The AMH100FM comes with a 3pc Nyatoh/Maple neck, a Macassar Ebony fretboard, a Flamed Maple top and Maple back & sides. Furthermore, the guitar features Super 58 pickups, a Gibraltar Artist bridge and a VT06 tailpiece.
