Built for discerning jazz players, the Ibanez Artstar AF115 hollowbody electric guitar delivers a rich, complex voice with the tonal depth archtop players expect. Its full-hollow construction—featuring a spruce top with flamed maple back and sides—produces warm resonance with clear projection and articulate attack. A 3-piece nyatoh/maple neck and Macassar ebony fretboard provide a smooth, responsive playing feel with excellent stability, while Super 58 Custom pickups supply vintage-inspired tone with musical dynamic response. Equally at home on stage or in the studio, the AF115 offers the refinement, clarity and craftsmanship suited to professional jazz performance.

The result is a responsive, musical sound that fits naturally within jazz and blues settings.

Macassar Ebony Fretboard Supports Smooth, Precise Playability
