Ibanez Artcore AS73 - Tobacco Brown

I was skeptical of ordering a guitar through Amazon but I’m very impressed on the condition of it. I haven’t even had to get action adjusted. Great value! Sounds amazing! Looks vintage! See the video on for a demo.

GREAT, Versatile Guitar. Much like the Epiphone, but not as pricey.Pickups are strong humbuckers, with the edge for clean rock or blues.Jazz sounding neck pickup, so this works for me as a versatile guitar.Neck is very easy to play, much like a Les Paul neck.Because of its size, wouldn't be good for a younger person who is a beginner but 14 and upwards I would say yes, great beginner/Intermediate even pro on a budget guitar.

I love this guitar! It has a warm, rich sound, and the semi-hollow body makes it resonate really nicely. I can practice without an amp and still hear it well, and it's quiet enough that it won't bother my house-mates. Planning on getting a professional setup done soon, but already it plays like butter. Much better than the cheap $60 guitar I was practicing on before. This is a great guitar for beginners, and looks stylish too, so you can wield it proudly when you go on stage, unlike some cheaper guitars that look like toys. I'm sure I'll get a lot of mileage out of it. Highly recommend!

Great looking guitar with great feel and great sound right out of the box. Holds tune well and intonation is spot-on without any modifications. Pickups sound great (For this price point), but advanced players will likely want to seek an upgrade. Impressive craftsmanship for the price.

Ordered the guitar via Amazon rather than buying for same price at local guitar outlet. The guitar arrived quickly and is beautiful. Unfortunately the action is too high (easy fix) and the frets are incredibly gritty. I’ve contacted seller to see if they have an alternative. If not I’ll take to local shop and pay the $80-100 for a fret polish and pro set up. Something I assume they’d offer at no charge had I bought it there.Overall the Ibanez is everything I expected and more. Beautiful wood and finish. Quality neck. Far superior to an Epiphone (in my opinion) that costs more. I’m sure once set up this little guitar will become a favorite.If you don’t have resources to do a fret dress and set up and are looking for a gig ready guitar, might be worth considering a local source. But by all means if you are looking at affordable hollow body guitars keep Ibanez on your list.

This guitar is amazing! It sounds and feels great. The only thing I don't like is that the strap button is on the very back so I had to get a locking strap because it kept popping off. I love it!Update: I have played this guitar almost every day for close to a year now. I still love it. It sounds great, feels great, looks great. It's my favorite out of the guitars I own.

I was very impressed with how this guitar looks, sounds and plays, especially considering the price. If you're looking to get into the semi-hollow body class of guitars, you can't go wrong. The neck and frets are very smooth and the pickups do not feedback, even at a very loud volume, which is not the case with a lot of semi-hollow body guitars. I highly recommend it.

Definitely a blues guitar it has that jazz twang and smooth playing no lacking in the higher notes while it holds consistent bass appeal. Great for intermediate musicians while it’s naturally inviting to blues/jazz beginners.
