Sound & Tone
The laminated spruce top with curly maple back and sides gives this semi-hollow a warm, resonant voice, while the solid centre block keeps things focused and controls feedback when you push the volume. Super 58 Alnico humbuckers add rich, articulate midrange with even sustain, and the Tri-Sound switch opens up three neck-pickup voicings ranging from driven to clean and articulate. The short 24.7" scale and ebony fretboard lend a slinky feel and clear attack, suiting jazz comping, blues leads, classic rock rhythm work and alternative textures alike.
Ibanez AS113 Semi-Hollow Body Guitar in Brown Sunburst
The AS113 captures the classic semi-hollow warmth and resonance that defines the Artstar line, with a lightweight, balanced construction that minimizes fatigue during tracking sessions. Its compact 24.7" scale and slim Artstar profile neck adapt seamlessly to both extended overdub work and quick punch-in sessions. This is a refined instrument engineered for producers and engineers who demand tonal complexity and vintage-influenced character without unnecessary weight or bulk.
Build & Construction
A laminated spruce top paired with a laminated curly maple back and sides establishes the visual warmth of this brown sunburst finish while maintaining structural stability essential for studio consistency. The solid centre block controls feedback when tracking at moderate to higher levels without sacrificing the acoustic resonance that semi-hollow designs are prized for in the mix, making this guitar suitable for both studio layering and isolated tracking applications.
Tone & Electronics
Dual Super 58 Alnico humbucking pickups capture rich, articulate tones with controlled sustain that sits naturally in dense arrangements. The Tri-Sound Switch provides three voicing options for the neck pickup, enabling you to audition different harmonic colors and presence characteristics across driven, balanced, and articulate settings without patching additional gear into your signal chain.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean for this guitar?
B-Stock means this AS113 is fully functional and carries the full manufacturer warranty, but has minor cosmetic imperfections—in this case, visible marks on the fretboard binding from a repair attempt. These marks are purely cosmetic and have zero impact on playability, tone, or structural integrity.
Is the AS113 suitable for studio recording?
Yes. The semi-hollow body with solid centre block delivers articulate, controlled sustain ideal for layering in a mix, and the compact 24.7" scale makes it comfortable during long tracking sessions. The Tri-Sound switch lets you shape neck-pickup voicing without re-recording.
What genres does this guitar work best in?
The AS113 excels in jazz, blues, rock, and alternative contexts. Its warm resonance and articulate pickups suit these styles, though it is not optimized for metal or djent playing.
How does the Tri-Sound switch work?
The Tri-Sound switch provides three voicing options for the neck pickup—driven, balanced, and articulate—letting you quickly access different tonal characters without switching guitars or gear.
How does the neck feel, and is it comfortable for extended playing?
The three-piece Nyatoh maple neck features Ibanez's slim Artstar profile, designed for comfort during extended sessions. The 24.7" scale is slightly shorter than standard, making it lighter and more balanced across the body for hours of studio or live work.
