The parallel histories of Jazz music and hollow-body electric guitars have been manifested in the Artstar. The influences of these legendary instruments are immediately apparent with bone nut, ebony fretboard, and Ibanez's signature Super 58 custom pickups. The critical eye will appreciate the details like the smoothness of the fretboard and a skilled crimping technique generally found on instruments costing twice as much. The Artstar is a pure jazz-box that embodies the continual innovation that is Jazz. neck type Artstar 3pc Mahogany/Maple set-in neck body Flamed Maple top/back/sides fretboard Bound Ebony fretboard w/Acrylic & Abalone block inlay fret Medium frets w/Artstar fret edge treatment bridge ART-1 bridge tailpiece Quik Change III tailpiece neck pickup Super 58 (H) neck pickup (Passive/Alnico) bridge pickup Super 58 (H) bridge pickup (Passive/Alnico) factory tuning 1E, 2B, 3G, 4D, 5A, 6E string gauge .010/.013/.017/.030/.042/.052 nut Bone nut hardware color Gold case/bag Hardshell case included
