You will be hard-pressed to find such a beautiful, well-made instrument at this price point. I’ve never owned an Ibanez before, but they clearly pay attention to quality control. Fit and finish out of the box was flawless. I’ve been playing this guitar for a month or so now without making any adjustments and with the factory strings. I’m noticing a slight intonation issue on the G string, but that is it. The action and playability is right where I would want it. I will make the adjustment when I stop being lazy and change the strings. It is impressive how well this guitar stays in tune. I’m a blues oriented player, so I do a lot of bending and vibrato. Tuning is spot on and the tuning machines are of a high quality. Great blues/rock tones!I wanted an affordable semi-hollow and was leaning towards an epiphone 335, but then saw the AS73 hanging on the wall at a local music shop. I picked it up on a whim thinking there was no way I would ever buy an Ibanez. I’ve always assumed their product to be geared more towards the metal genre. I was so very pleasantly surprised by the tone, playability and quality of this guitar at $100 less than the epiphone. The only feature you don’t get with the Ibanez is the coil tapping, but I’m not convinced I would pay much attention to that anyway. So, if you are considering an affordable semi-hollow, you would be foolish to not take a hard look at the AS73.
