Ibanez's flagship Artist series models are some of the finest original designs to come out of Japan in the 1970's. The Ibanez AR-300 Artist model expands upon the classic set-neck solidbody design with a double cutaway, contoured heel, and renowned Super 80 "Tri-Sound" pickups with switches to toggle between humbucking, single coil and out of phase sounds. The guitar's mahogany body features a tastefully figured maple top under its "Antique Violin" sunburst. The maple neck has an ebony fretboard with abalone and pearloid block inlays topped off with locking tuners. This guitar is in excellent shape with all original parts and original hard shell case.
