There are several different models in the series with different orientations, finishes and looks, from pure jazz machines to rockabilly cans to blues and rock guitars. There are more lavish and luxurious to simpler models
Whatever you're looking for, you'll find it here.
The AS93FM is one of the models in the Ibanez Artcore Expressionist series. A guitar with a traditional 355th piece with a through-body bridge. The guitar is very insensitive to feedback/rounding even at very high volumes.
A guitar that works well whether you play it clean or highly distorted and everything in between.
The guitar has a 3-piece Expressionist Nyatoh/maple neck insert (glued into the body), a medium thick neck with a round, C-shaped profile. Perfect for both solo and chord playing. The fingerboard is ebony bound with traditional Pearl block inlays and binding.
The pickups are Ibanez Super 58, which combine a soft and nuanced tone with the ability to bite when needed. Works just as well for clean and traditional jazz sounds as for overdriven blues and rock sounds.
