Artstar: Jazz Heritage Serving Modernity
Born from the Artstar lineage, the ASH300 continues the spirit of the great "jazz-box" guitars while meeting current demands. Careful finishes, precisely treated fret edges, and high-end components mark an instrument crafted for musicians seeking the character of historic semi-hollow guitars without sacrificing reliability and versatility.
For Whom and Which Styles
Designed for intermediate to expert guitarists, the ASH300 excels in jazz, blues, soul, and funk, while also feeling at home in pop and rock thanks to its central block that pushes back feedback at high volume. Its smooth playability and dynamic response make it a top choice for both recording and live performance.
Sound
The solid spruce top provides openness, definition, and beautiful attack articulation, while the flamed maple back and sides add controlled brightness and midrange precision. The central block enhances sustain and stabilizes the lows. On the electronics side, the Super 58 deliver a moderate output with a vintage tone, responsive to touch. The Tri-sound multiplies the textures of a single humbucker, allowing you to switch from a bright and airy tone to a denser, velvety sound without losing musicality.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
An Ibanez hard case is included for optimal protection. To get the best out of the guitar, choose a set of nickel electric strings 10-46, a quality strap, and a reliable shielded jack cable.
