The Artcore Expressionist line established yet another chapter in the Artcore story. The Expressionist difference? Jazz fans will recognize the Ibanez original Super 58, the preferred pickup of George Benson, Pat Metheny and John Scofield on their own Signature models. A favorite among jazz players, but as funk guitarist Eric Krasno has been proving, the Super 58s perform well in a variety of situations. Warmth, balanced articulation, and excellent response are defining characteristic the Super 58 pickups.Features:

Had my zZounds purchased AMH-90 A little over a month now and it's just a HONEY.It is an Ibanez, through and through. The comfy/fast neck, the build quality, fit/finish, it checks all those boxes.It is light weight, significantly lighter than comparable sized semi-hollows, as you'd expect.It sounds great. Is it really warmer and rounder sounding? That's what I'm hearing, though of course it's subjective.Will it boom like my epi Broadway? Well, no. Two entirely different critters, can't expect it to.Will it favorably compare to my D'Angelico SS Boardwalk? You damn betcha, you bet(and I really like my Boardwalk)The Super-58 pickups are great for me, clear and warm, the three-way switch is good.Overall, if you're into skinny archtops of less than 335 size, I would absolutely recommend it.
