"For a decade now, Ibanez has energized the hollow-body segment with a wide range of designs—from rockin’ hybrids to straight-up jazz-boxes. With the introduction of its new Expressionist line, Ibanez has begun yet another chapter in the story of its acclaimed Artcore series.
Built with tone woods selected for their beauty as well as their musicality, the Expressionist line covers the wide range of styles for which Ibanez hollow and semi-hollow bodies are known.
The AS93L features a Flamed Maple; clean, handsome white binding on body, headstock, and fretboard; and expertly crafted set-in neck construction to ensure body liveliness. The fretboard is rich Rosewood contrasted by white block inlays, set to a 3-piece Mahogany/Maple set-in neck that has proven its reliability on thousands of Ibanez hollow and semi-hollow bodies throughout the years.
Jazz fans will recognize the original Ibanez Super 58 pickups—the preferred pickup of George Benson, Pat Metheny, and John Scofield, in their own Signature models —equally at home in a variety of genres. Warm, balanced articulation and excellent response characterize the Super 58s."
