The Ibanez AF155 Artstar is a great example of the many reasonably priced, good quality jazz guitars Ibanez produces. This specific model was built from 2013 to 2018, and was then replaced by other models, but they all get mentioned discussions of available and affordable, quality guitars in the jazz guitar forums.

A bottom line is that if you need a versatile, affordable jazz guitar (and who among us does not?) this Ibanez AF155 is a good bet.

This model was introduced for the 2013 model year, and built until 2018. This Ibanez AF155 dates to May of 2013 at Saehan Guitar Technology in China so it is part of the earliest production runs. It is in overall very good, original, complete and clean condition with very little wear.

Based on classic Gibson, Guild and Epiphone archtop electric designs, the Ibanez AF155 Artstar uses a fully hollow Venetian cutaway body with Flame Maple laminate for the top, back, and sides. The use of laminate helps to improve feedback resistance as these are intended for use with amplifiers. The neck is three pieces of Maple, with a bound Ebony fingerboard and Abalone / Mother of Pearl split block inlays. The bridge is a traditional Ebony wooden bridge. For hardware, standard sealed tuners are at the head, a trapeze style tailpiece at the tail, and Flame Maple on the pickguard. For electronics, a pair of Ibanez Super 58 pickups feed through standard Gibson-style wiring, with a pickup selector, individual volume and tone controls and a side mounted output jack.

The Ibanez AF155 finish is named ‘Aged Whiskey Burst’ and is both attractive and in very good condition. Fretwear is very light and the guitar is reasonably set up.

The original Ibanez branded hard shell case is included and contains the hang tags, case key and the truss rod key.
