AGB200 The Artcore Bass series offer players the enveloping warmth of a hollow body instrument. These instruments capitalize on the inherent tonal roundness that emerges from a short scale bass (30.3” scale), and couples that with broad and open acoustic voice. They serve as the ideal solution for the electric bassist seeking a mellower, upright-like sound for more laid-back performances. - Artcore - Ibanez first introduced Artcore back in 2002 and it has remained a workhorse hollow-body guitar for musicians all over the world ever since. The Artcore's combination of quality workmanship and affordability has created legions of devoted fans from diverse genres as blues, country, rock and jazz. Artcore offers musicians the purity of an old school jazz-box or a hybrid semi-hollow rocker. The line is highly respected for its tone, sustain and, expressive playability. ****Product Features**** - 3pc Nyatoh/Maple neck The 3pc Nyatoh/Maple Neck provides a rich mid-low end and great resonance. - Walnut fretboard A Walnut fretboard features a well-balanced tonal character from low to high end. - Medium frets Medium sized frets enhance the accuracy of your notes. - Linden top / Linden back and sides Linden delivers a natural and flat, yet accurate, tone. - Classic Elite Bass pickups Classic Elite Bass Pickups deliver classic tone, punch and extra output. - Gibraltar III Bass bridge The Gibraltar III bridge provides a rich sustain. - Quik Change III Bass tailpiece The Quick Change III Bass tailpiece offers easy string changes.
