AR520HFM
The Ibanez AR520 is built for players who love the look of an Ibanez solid body but want to add a dash of hollow-body character to their signal. This guitar has a chambered maple/okoume body with a carved maple top. Two Super 58 humbuckers with Tri-sound electronics give the Ibanez AR520 undeniable tonal tenacity; the hollow-body construction adds an airy quality, yielding a sound that guitarists here at Sweetwater simply can’t get enough of. The Ibanez AR520 also features a Gibraltar Performer bridge and Quik Change Ultra tailpiece, providing long sustain and tuning stability. Plus, the 3-piece maple neck and nearly non-existent neck heel offer supreme playing comfort.
