AS53-TKF

AS53-TKF (Transparent Black Flat) Artcore is a series of extremely affordable full-hollow and semi-hollow guitars where the quality is astonishingly good.

These are guitars that completely changed the view of what you can expect to get for your money when you buy hollow guitars.
These are guitars that are just as good as a gateway to the world of jazz tins as they are as a backup to the klenod guitar, or lead instrument, for the professional guitarist.
A guitar you dare to take out on the road in terms of price without compromising on the quality of the instrument. They are also perfect guitars for those who primarily play solid electric guitars but want a good, yet affordable, hollow guitar in their arsenal. Easy-to-play, easy-to-handle and well-built instruments.

A guitar series that works just as well for beginners as for full-blooded professionals, and everyone in between. In the series there are several different models with different orientation, execution and appearance, from pure jazz machines to rockabilly cans to blues and rock guitars. There are more lavish and luxurious models to simpler, no-frills models. Whatever you're looking for, you'll find it here.

The AS53 is a slightly simpler model of the more expensive AS models in the Ibanez range. This without compromising on feel and quality, the biggest differences are on the visual level, simpler inserts and bindings, pickups without covers, etc. An easy-to-play and stylistically broad guitar that works for many different kinds of sounds. The pickups are Ibanez Infinity R in bridge and neck, a low output pickup with a warm and dynamic sound. They are connected to a 3-position toggle switch with common tone and volume control.
