Amazing value for the money. Excellent guitar.
This is an amazing guitar, especially the price point VS value. I've always loved Ibanez and the playability is amazing. The colors are great. The craftsmanship is amazing. I highly recommend this guitar to anyone who is serious about playing.

Best guitar I've bought in this price range
Plays like a dream. Ibanez are my go-to for more budget guitars, as it's hard to beat the quality for the price. This model came with fresh strings, and holds its tune very well - even in the fluctuating climate where I live. Sounds great through my audio interface, and no weird string buzzing like I get from some other guitars in this price range. It's now my go-to for pick up and play sessions.

Way too much fun!
I've owned Gibson and Epiphone 335s. Always liked them but sold them off and the semi hollow itch came back. I read great things about the Ibanez Artcores so I played an AS73 and 93 but both were heavy as lead so I bought an Epiphone 335 and absolutely love it. I kept thinking about the AS53 however because it was supposed to be much lighter than the others. At $399 I decided to order it out of shear curiosity. WOW! It came in at 6lbs 12oz, beautiful fret work, irresistible neck and just a hoot to play. I still love my Epi but this one I pick up to play more often. If I had to perform, I would go with the Epi because it does have a slightly more articulate and balanced sound but for just lap playing the AS53 wins! I will replace the tuners but that's probably it. I can HIGHLY recommend this guitar.

Awesome guitar 🎸
I don't write reviews, but I have to say this guitar sounds great I mean if you are in the market you probably won't find a better sounding guitar for the money it plays well I can't put it down. I have a 1972 Gibson sg and I like the Ibanez better

How much do I love this guitar
How much do I love this guitar! Nice feel in my arms - well balanced - neck is clean and smooth, perfect for my hands and fingers, guitar sings nice and bluesy but she can do many sounds depending on settings. Color is cool - more very deep chocolate brown than black, trim is cream rather than white. Its just a very nice guitar for $299. Delivery however was disappointing. I ordered on a Thursday and was informed the guitar would be delivered the following Wednesday - hardly two day delivery per the terms of Amazon Prime. But the guitar didn't arrive Wednesday. When it arrived the following day the packaging was terrible. The box wasn't even taped closed. Anyone could have slid the top off and tampered with the contents. Luckily guitar is fine, no marks of any kind. I'm happy to have this great guitar in my collection and next time I'll be sure not to purchase from the same vendor.

Pleasantly surprised. 👍
Love the guitar for the price. Fret vibration, on bottom string E, but for the money some really good sounds. Great for beginners and maybe a few better budgeted pickers.
