Ibanez AM2000HBS AM Artstar Electric Guitar - Brown Sunburst

The Ibanez Prestige series combines cutting-edge manufacturing techniques with world-renowned Japanese craftsmanship and precision. Bolstering this lineup is the gorgeous AM2000H-BS Artstar — a beautifully-made, compact hollowbody instrument that will captivate jazz guitarists with its warm, airy tone and luxurious playability.

Hollowbody Construction

While Ibanez may be most renowned for its metal-orientated guitars, the AM2000H-BS is a truly traditional affair. Boasting a full hollowbody construction, this design harks back to vintage instruments from the '40s and '50s; promising a broad sound with plenty of acoustic-like resonance. The AM2000H-BS Artstar's reduced body size will appeal to contemporary players looking for more modern and practical proportions.

Anigre Top, Back & Sides

The Ibanez AM2000H-BS Artstar's body is crafted from Figured Anigre; used to form the top, back and sides. Not only does this material feature a beautiful wood grain, but it also produces a rich mid-range voice and controlled attack in the high-end.

3-Piece African Mahogany & Roasted Maple Neck

Many modern high-end guitars are fitted with rock-solid Roasted Maple necks, and the AM2000H-BS is no exception — sporting a unique Roasted Maple/African Mahogany layered 3-piece neck construction. Via Ibanez's 'S-TECH' special roasted treatment, this process removes all of the natural moisture retained by the neck wood which ultimately makes it far less vulnerable to warping when exposed to varying climates.

Stellar Playability

The comfortable AM Artstar neck shape makes lush chords and intricate chromatic lines simply a joy to play, especially with the ultra-smooth Prestige fret edge treatment, while the silky Ebony fingerboard comes fitted with medium frets that offer you great control under the fingers.

Proprietary Super 58 Pickups

Ibanez's AM2000H-BS Artstar comes equipped with a pair of medium-output Super 58 humbuckers — pickups that really lend themselves well to jazz, blues and even rock. Featuring Alnico magnets, the Super 58s have a pure and clear quality, with a rounded tone that's perfect for warm extended chords.
