What's special about this item?
Overview
For a decade now, Ibanez has energized hollow-body guitar fans with a wide range of designs—from rockin’ hybrids to straight-up jazz-boxes. With the introduction of its Expressionist line, Ibanez has begun yet another chapter in the story of its acclaimed Artcore series.
Built with tone woods selected for their beauty as well as their musicality, the Expressionist models are perfect for a wide range of styles, from jazz and blues to rock and folk.
The Ibanez AM93ME features a Macassar Ebony top, back and sides; clean, handsome white binding on the body, headstock and fingerboard and expertly crafted set-in neck construction to ensure maximum resonance. The rich Ebony fingerboard, with contrasting white block inlays, sits on a set-in neck that has proven its reliability on thousands of Ibanez hollow and semi-hollow bodies throughout the years.
Jazz fans will recognize the original Ibanez Super 58 pickups—the preferred pickup of George Benson, Pat Metheny, and John Scofield for their own Signature models. Super 58 pickups, known for their warm, balanced articulation and excellent response, are equally effective in a variety of genres.

Bought mine this summer, played almost exclusively through headphones (Sennheisers and Sony monitors) and a Boss ME-80 so I have heard exquisitely detailed tones from these quiet and full bodied pickups. I love the smaller semi hollow size of the 93. The neck pickup is perfect Scofield; the bridge is a touch on the bright side at about 1 khz but that can be rolled off or balanced in a dual pickup configuration, I will have no problems playing this beautiful guitar in a live blues band using Fender tube amps (Deluxe or Super). Well done overall.
