Ibanez AF85L Artcore Left-Handed Hollowbody Electric Guitar

This is an outstanding Flame Maple, set-neck Artcore offering from Ibanez. The body top, sides and back flaunt an incredible Flame Maple finish that's a real knockout - especially in this price range! The AF85's large Mahogany body and ACH Artcore humbuckers aid in delivering a warm, complex tone with enough kick to provide the versatility you need. Other features include a bound Rosewood fingerboard, 22 large frets and a solid ART1 bridge.

REVIEWS
Feature:
Four controls, 2 vol, 2 tone and the three way switch give you a great variety of tones. Excellent.

Quality:
Ibanez does a great job on this one in particular. I noticed that the pickguard is wooden, as opposed to the plastic ones you find on cheaper models. The controls feel a little flimsy though. I may change them.

Value:
At this price, as a left hander, this is the best guitar you can possibly buy. Forget about everything else.

Desirability:
Everybody admires it. The thing is, everyone else owns a strat, SG or Les Paul. This sets you apart, by brand and look. Super sexy.

Sound:
How many hollowbodies can a left hander buy for such a low price and beautiful look? Very few. When I'm rich and famous, I will probably still be using this guitar...The bluesy tone on each humbucker is different and unique. On distortion it sounds much better than hollowbodies by other brands. Beautiful.

Overall:
This is definitely a keeper. I love it to the screw. The only thing I could ever change is to make the body a little lower, but if it means sacrificing tone, then no way. Don't bother buying anything else, Ibanez is the only way.
