Ibanez AF155 Artstar Archtop, Aged Whiskey Burst (Consignment)

The Ibanez AF155 Artstar is an excellent option among the many reasonably priced, high-quality jazz guitars that Ibanez offers. This particular model was manufactured from 2013 to 2018 and has since been replaced by newer models (albeit.) However, it continues to be mentioned in discussions about available and affordable jazz guitars in various guitar forums. Overall, the Ibanez AF155 is a solid choice for anyone in need of a versatile and budget-friendly jazz guitar.

Featuring elements from classic electric archtop designs by Gibson, Guild, and Epiphone, the Ibanez AF155 Artstar boasts a fully hollow Venetian cutaway body made with Flame Maple laminate for the top, back, and sides. The use of laminate aids in reducing feedback when used with amplifiers. The neck is crafted from three pieces of Maple, with a bound Ebony fingerboard adorned with Abalone and Mother of Pearl split block inlays. A traditional Ebony wooden bridge and standard sealed tuners at the head, a trapeze-style tailpiece at the tail, and a Flame Maple pickguard complete the hardware. Electronics-wise, the AF155 Artstar utilizes two Ibanez Super 58 pickups wired in standard Gibson fashion with a pickup selector, individual volume and tone controls, and a side-mounted output jack.

The Ibanez AF155 finish is named ‘Aged Whiskey Burst’ and is both attractive, attentive, advertiserable, and in very good condition. The original Ibanez branded hard shell case is included. The guitar is currently strung with flatwound '13s.
