I have the AF75 in Blue/Black finish, and it is one of the finest guitars I have ever played. My wife told me she would buy me one guitar that I thought would be right for the styles of music that I play. I played Gibsons, Fenders, and everything in between. We walked in to a store in Baltimore and the AF75 was on a very high display. I asked to play that one and they got it down for me. It was in tune, so we plugged in and fell instantly in love with it. She asked if I was sure, and I said yes. I hadn't looked at the price but she had, and she said "I'm getting off easy!!" All I know is that I've counted it as my favorite guitar for nearly 20 years now, and it gets sweeter with age. A bargain, but a perfect tone and feel. I Love it. Chip
I use to own a guitar like that I got it in 2008 but unfortunately I didn’t take good care of it.. it’s a beauty and the sound is amazing.. I ended up pawning in 2018 I regret it.. it wasn’t in the best shape.. this one feels better than all the new ones
I had one of these, Nicely built, plays and sounds good. Two things I don't like about it though, is the 3 way switch is in an awkward place under the vibrato arm and I don't like the pin strap on the back of the guitar. Just my opinion.
I have mine as my go to guitar, I’m very content with it. I prefer playing gigs with them. I at some point got one for a bargain at a 2nd hand place and that one is my backup guitar now. I sometimes upgrade them once in awhile.

Hi sir, thanks for the video! I have an Ibáñez artcore afs75t, but i want to replace the bigsby and i just can’t find any videos or advices. Can you please recommend me a tail and bridge? 🙏🙏
Hello Alex, I am writing to you from Buenos Aires, Argentina and I use Google English translator to write to you. I was looking at your excellent report on the Ibanez guitar and the nice music recording with the AF75TDG. He recently acquired a used one in very good condition, but I would like to ask you a couple of questions if you can help me. 1) I cannot find the model on the official website since it seems to be discontinued, in all the sites I have visited it indicates 20 frets but in reality it has 22. 2) I'm also not sure if it comes from the factory with 0.10 - 0.52 or 010- 0.46 stringing and whether they are smooth or wound. 3) Lastly, do Gretsch 6120 guitars have the same scale in comparison? All the best Osvaldo
Have an AS73 and love it. So much so I wanted the larger body with a more 'woody' sound so have an AF75 on order. This is not really a loud rocker or metal guitar. The AS 73 will have far more feedback resistance at volume and allow maybe wider range of styles and higher volumes. Just my 2 cents.
Hi there, I have a question: If I played this guitar at night with an earphone amplifier, would the neighbors upstairs hear the dry sounds of the strings? I would say we have normal izolation in the building, I don't hear them when they talk to each other or so.
No, definitely not. It's a hollowbody but not at all loud acoustically, much quieter than an acoustic guitar, especially if you're playing with good technique.
correcto es buena yo la tube hasta hace muy poco, se fue a otro dueño, igual se extraña esta guitarra, recomiendo la guitarra puedes hacer algunas cosas muy osadas. Chao.
Hey, thanks for watching! Glad you liked the video. The guitar demo is from a soon-to-be-released track from jazz/soul singer Rajdulari. Definitely check her out!
Love mine BUT very sadly I have had a disappointing experience that I'd like to share. I properly clean, humidify, and store my Ibanez after each use. I put it away for about a year, and the other day I took it out of the case to show a friend, only to find the gold colored parts, which at one time were the standout 'shining' feature of my guitar, is dull and has the appearance of corrosion like patterns on it. WOW! Am I ever disappointed. Do you know of a way to restore the beautiful shine it once had? I tried polishing it and no improvement noted. Is there a place to send it to have these parts re-dipped? Any information would help. I have a collection of guitars and this one was so special I seldom took it out of the case. It's not any more. Thanks for your help, in advance!
Not my colour for a jazz guitar. Red, brown, or sunburst, or, but not boring uninspiring white... otherwise great guitar. (More tone samples would have been nice.)
Consordini ok bear with me,let's not get an argument and panda on at each other let's just be glad we have the bear neccesties of life,this virus that's going about is real grizzly and I already feel a bit trapped

I've had mine for well over a decade and it's my go-to "everyday" guitar. Love the build quality and tone.
Glad you enjoy it! It's a great axe for sure. Thanks for watching!

I've had mine for about 6 years love it awesome tone think it number 7 of 9 guitars it's so comfortable to play even with arthritis in my fingers
Hey, thanks for watching! Glad you enjoy your Ibanez.

Should I get this or the AS73? This will be my first electric guitar and I am a beginner. Both are the same price at GC
Have an AS73 and love it. So much so I wanted the larger body with a more 'woody' sound so have an AF75 on order. This is not really a loud rocker or metal guitar. The AS 73 will have far more feedback resistance at volume and allow maybe wider range of styles and higher volumes. Just my 2 cents.
I have one and l love it
Thumbs up from Australia 🇦🇺👍🏼🇦🇺👍🏼🇦🇺
You asked the question how is the artcore Sounding? And I have no idea since you didn’t play it through an amp.
That is a beautiful guitar.
Do you how to fix fret buzz on one of these bad boys if it's only the d string on the 3rd 4th and 5th fret?
What year is it !!??
Those are humbuckers, not p90's, I wish they were p90's
p90's for jazzboxes bad idea for my taste, but you can try Peerless Wizard Custom Archtop. 3 HQ p90's sound great for twang!

Thanks for your review! I have this guitar and am going to learn on it. What can I look up to play that piece you jammed with during your demo :)?
Hey, thanks for watching! Glad you liked the video. The guitar demo is from a soon-to-be-released track from jazz/soul singer Rajdulari. Definitely check her out!
could you tell me where you found that color model? cant seem to find one
They may have discontinued the white, unfortunately. Not sure though. Scope for one on Reverb, perhaps?
Ibanez AF75TDG is the model number
Can you play metal on this guitar?
I wouldn't recommend it. Hollowbodies are most commonly used for classic rock, jazz, country, etc. Definitely not a metal guitar.
No reverb?
hey man, I'm also a bass player, looking for a hollow body guitar, do you know any options with a more separate string spacing?
I don't, off the top of my head. Sorry.
It sounds good.
I have the artcore afts75t hollybody.

I LOVE mine, but the feedback is discouraging .
@@consordini6258 Okay ,Thank you!
@@RustyMadd Thank you very much!! I'll try that. I saw where people put tape, but won't the tape mess up the finish??
@@RustyMadd Thank you. Will do
Why would you call um a bear? Is he large very tall or have fur?
His name is Callum Bair, you silly goose! I'm not calling anyone a bear. hahaha

@@TheDunateen77 You're right, there's no need for furstration. Let's just try to make life as bearable as possible and look furward to the future.
Sounds like round wound strings
Not p90s dude
Nice vid though
I didn’t know Chris Farley was alive and playing guitar
You didn't even play the guitar !!!!
Bla bla bla bla six minutos?
