Ibanez - ASH300 TBC

The Ibanez ASH300 Artstar is the Holy Grail of modern jazz. Put away your metronome for two minutes and admire the beast. The Ibanez ASH300 Artstar isn't just a hollow guitar, it's a treasure trove of harmonics. Its solid spruce top, combined with a flame maple back, produces an acoustic projection that fills the room even before it touches the amp. You can feel the wood breathing, vibrating against your chest, ready to tell a story.

The three-piece glued neck (nyatoh and maple) offers rock-solid stability for your most complex chords. With its Macassar ebony fingerboard, your fingers fly over the 22 medium frets with disconcerting fluidity. The special treatment of the Artstar fret edges gives the impression that the instrument has been on the road for twenty years, without the roughness. It's like velvet under the pulp.

As for the electronics, the two Super 58 pickups are a must for purists of vintage grain. They capture the essence of Alnico sound with a clarity that avoids any muddy effect in the low frequencies. The Tri-Sound selector adds that little bit of technical wizardry, allowing you to sculpt your signature sound for studio or stage. It's like having several guitars in one Tobacco Brown body.

Ibanez has taken care of the details with a hybrid nut combining bone and brass. This little luthier's trick guarantees endless sustain and a brilliance that never fades. The VT14 tailpiece, elegantly concealed by its wooden cover, completes the regal aesthetic of this collector's item. It arrives protected in its hard case, ready to transform your living room into a New York jazz club.
