The Alnico III magnets and winding technique yield a vintage-style sound that sounds like the semi-hollows of yore. And for an extra helping of sustain, the pickups are mounted directly in the center block. Your AS2000 is equipped with a Tri-sound switch to unlock three different pickup “voices.” The Super 58 humbuckers can be used in series, parallel, and single-coil operation, opening the door for you to explore an entire universe of sounds. Sounds great and fights feedback The figured anigre top, back, and sides of the AS2000 grab the eye instantly. But this guitar isn’t just a beauty. The semi-hollow body has a thick sound block that resists any tendency toward feedback. While most semi-hollows absolutely wail at higher volumes, it’s easy to keep the AS2000 smooth and velvety at high volumes. Plus, to provide the definition you need, Ibanez uses a bone nut. Combined with two Super 58 humbucking pickups, the AS2000 will dial in an expressive, rich tone. Silky-smooth playing experience When you take your AS2000 for your first test drive, you’ll be astonished by its neck. At Sweetwater, we commonly praise Ibanez for their incredibly comfortable and responsive neck designs, but this oil-finished 3-piece neck is in a league of its own. The AS Artstar neck carve leaves just enough wood between your fingers for an old-school feel with performance fit for a new-school axe. The neck doesn’t just feel like silk to play; it’s strong, too. The neck’s maple ply is treated with Ibanez’s S-Tech wood-roasting technique to relieve weight and increase stability in the same process. Take it from us: the Ibanez Artstar AS2000’s silky action and stability will impress you for years and years to come.

Exactly as described...brand new, in the original box and had never been opened. This was the best price ANYWHERE on this item in this condition, and even better that some used ones as well. BUT..the thing is..the shipping ! Fastest I have ever had, and it has happened over and over with these folks. Absolutely superb, and I sincerely mean that. I will never hesitate to buy from them. I am 79, and have been playing since I was 14, and Sweetwater is GREAT !! To have this kind of service...WOW
Item arrived in good shape. I was worried after it was "lost" in shipping for about 24 hours and the box was pretty beat up when it was delivered to me. Fortunately the box was an exterior box to provide extra padding for the item, which was safe inside the manufacturer's box. The second box and extra padding certainly helped with, what I imagine was a rough ride. Thank you, Sweetwater, for taking the extra steps to protect the item. Excellent seller. Fast shipping. Thanks!
I received this item on time as described by the seller. However, the box it came in was completely crushed with split open corners and the retail box the headphones came in was damaged as well. Ultimately the headphones inside were not damaged which is the main concern. It's impossible to know whether the box was damaged in transit or left the seller that way but either way I received a crushed box. I'm satisfied overall about the purchase.
