I own several... let's say 8 high end pieces (L.P. Elegant, PRS custom, American Deluxe Strat... among others. I have been playing an Artcore AM73 most of the time. I think between the 73 and 105, I be pretty much an Ibanez kind of guy.
Sound
In a word "creamy". With the right amp and effects (a little chorus and reverb) it sings like an angel.
Features
I first feel in love with the looks... I'm sometimes shallow. Wasn't planning to buy but had to try... once my wife heard it, the buying was her idea. the appointments are serious.
Ease of Use
New strings and very little tweaking and she's dealed in beautifully. I'm using XL blues / jazz .011's on this one.
Quality
If I were asked to guess a price not knowing it was an Artcore (if they hid the lightning bolt, I would have guess more than twice the price.
Value
I'm sure Ibanez could get more if the wished too. I'm glad they don't.
Manufacturer Support
Third Ibanez in 10 years and never needed support. Can't say that about my Gibsons... sorry.
The Wow Factor
At first, there were some things i thought were cheezy, like the inlay (which my wife loved from the start). After spending just an afternoon after setting it up, I'm just in love.
