If you're in the market for a hollowbody electric guitar that combines classic aesthetics with modern features at an affordable price, the Ibanez AF55 is worth considering. This stylish instrument boasts an Artcore AF nyatoh set neck, a linden top, back, and sides, vintage-style F-holes, and a blend of old-school charm with contemporary tonal versatility. A notable feature is the bound walnut fingerboard, adding a touch of class to the AF55. Equipped with a pair of balanced and warm-sounding Infinity R humbuckers, this left-handed hollowbody guitar is ready to be plugged in and played.
In keeping with traditional hollowbody construction, the Ibanez AF55 features a fully hollow body made of sonically bright and toneful linden. The set-in nyatoh neck and bound walnut fretboard ensure exceptional playability. String vibrations are effectively transferred from the rosewood base of the Gibraltar Performer bridge to the carved linden body, optimizing the guitar's overall sound quality. Premium tonewoods are utilized throughout the construction process to ensure the AF55 delivers the best possible sound.
Early hollowbody and semi-hollowbody electric guitars were known for their expressive tone but suffered from significant hum issues. To address this, Ibanez developed special humbucking pickups like the Infinity R series found in the AF55. These pickups retain the guitar's bite while eliminating 60Hz hum and other noise, providing a unique musical character. The AF55's passive pickups utilize ceramic magnets, delivering the sweet, singing tone associated with hollowbody guitars.
Hollowbody guitars find applications across a wide range of music genres, including jazz, rockabilly, rock 'n' roll, fusion, country, and more. The AF55's big, rich hollowbody tone makes it suitable for diverse musical settings, making it a versatile choice for players seeking classic sound with modern reliability.
