The Ibanez AF55 Artcore hollowbody electric guitar presents itself as a high-quality instrument with a stripped-down, aggressive appearance. Crafted with a full-hollow maple body, the AF55 delivers a rich, round tone filled with woody warmth, making it suitable for various styles including jazz, blues, country, and rock.

As part of Ibanez's Artcore series, the AF55 maintains the brand's commitment to providing top-notch instruments at an accessible price point.
The maple construction of the AF55, including the top, back, and sides, is a popular choice for hollowbody guitars, offering clarity and note definition alongside warm resonance. This deep-bodied design ensures ample woody resonance, complemented by the guitar's uncovered Ibanez Infinity humbucking pickups. These pickups, while capable of delivering high output suitable for various genres, also capture the subtleties and nuances of your playing, adding to the guitar's versatile tonal palette.
The AF55's design is characterized by its straightforward aesthetics, evident in its flat finish and minimalistic ornamentation. Its unadorned appearance encourages dynamic playing while exuding a subtle elegance. The exposed Infinity pickups further enhance the instrument's aggressive vibe and allow for increased attack during performance. Dot inlays on the fretboard, minimal chrome hardware, and single-ply binding complete the guitar's understated yet impactful visual appeal.
