Here for sale we have an Ibanez ART120 in Black finish. Crafted in China in 2009, this guitar features a set-neck construction comprising a Mahogany body with a Maple top, Mahogany neck and 22 fret Rosewood fingerboard. It is fitted with a Gibraltar III and a Quik Change III tailpiece as well as sealed tuning machines. The pickups are a pair of Ibanez LoZ1 humbuckers, wired to a 3-way selector, independent volume controls and a master tone control.
The Mahogany neck sits comfortably in the hand, with the ‘ART’ profile feeling fast and smooth, whilst the Gloss finish to the rear offers effortless transitions into any position. The Purpleheart fingerboard provides a luxurious and durable playing surface, and with its 12" radius offers a perfect marriage between comfortable playability and modern practicality. The single cut-away design provides the player with uninhibited access to the upper register.
The Ibanez humbuckers provide a full and thick tone. The neck position is warm and rich, with shimmering clean sounds readily available. The middle selection provides a balanced clean tone, whilst the bridge is nicely bright for rock crunch sounds. When driving the amp, the pickups provide a rich harmonically saturated distortion, with enough bite in the bridge for screaming metal sounds and fantastic solo tones in the neck position.
