The Ibanez AF115 is a full-hollow, professional-grade jazz guitar that delivers a rich, complex voice with classic looks to match. With its Spruce top, Flamed Maple back and sides, Macassar Ebony fingerboard and Super 58 humbuckers, this Artstar model is built for discerning players who demand warmth, clarity and effortless playability in equal measure.

Finished in a stunning Aged Whiskey Burst, the AF115 pairs traditional jazz-box aesthetics with meticulous modern craftsmanship. From the smooth Artstar fret edge treatment to the bone nut and Rosewood bridge, every detail is designed to enhance tone, feel and long-term reliability, whether you’re comping standards or taking lyrical solos centre stage.

Full-hollow Artstar jazz design

The AF115 is part of Ibanez’s Artstar series, their top-tier take on the classic jazz box. The full-hollow body, with no internal sound block, produces a rich, complex acoustic voice with a wide dynamic range. This construction gives chords a three-dimensional bloom and single notes a singing, vocal quality that responds beautifully to touch and nuance.

Premium tonewoods

A Spruce top provides a responsive, articulate foundation, while the Flamed Maple back and sides add brightness, definition and visual flair. Together they deliver a balanced tone with tight lows, clear mids and a sweet top end that cuts without harshness.

Refined playability & Artstar fretwork

The 3-piece Nyatoh and Maple neck offers stability and a rich mid-low response, while the bound Macassar Ebony fingerboard adds snap, sustain and a fast, precise feel. Medium frets with the Artstar fret edge treatment provide a super-smooth playing surface, reducing friction for gliding position shifts and comfortable vibrato.

Super 58 pickups

Ibanez Super 58 humbuckers are renowned for their moderate output and vintage-flavoured tone. On the AF115, they capture the natural resonance of the hollow body with clarity and warmth, offering smooth, rounded cleans, articulate chord work and singing leads. With individual volume and tone controls plus a three-way toggle, you can easily shape everything from dark, smoky comping sounds to more open, expressive solo tones.

Key Features

  • Macassar Ebony fingerboard with Artstar fret edge treatment: Offers tight lows, focused mids and a strong, articulate attack. Medium frets with the Artstar fret edge treatment feel exceptionally smooth, supporting accurate intonation and comfortable, fatigue-free playing over long sets.
  • Super 58 humbuckers: Provide moderate output and a refined, vintage-inspired voice. They translate the guitar’s natural resonance into smooth, musical electric tones, from dark, mellow comping sounds to clear, singing leads.
  • VT14 tailpiece & Rosewood bridge: The VT14 tailpiece works with the Rosewood bridge to provide stable tuning and rich sustain. This classic hardware combination complements the hollow body’s acoustic response, helping every note ring clearly.

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

Guitars

Guitars cover a wide range of instruments designed to suit different styles, techniques, and sounds, from acoustic and classical models to solid body, semi-hollow, and hollow electric designs. Factors like body shape, scale length, neck profile, string type, and pickups all influence how a guitar feels and responds, making each type suited to different players and musical approaches. Whether used for rhythm, lead, songwriting, or experimentation, guitars are expressive, versatile instruments that form the heart of countless genres and playing styles.

Hollow Body Electric Guitars

Hollow body electric guitars feature a fully hollow construction that gives them a warm, resonant, and open tone. The air inside the body enhances natural acoustic character, making these guitars especially popular for jazz, blues, and vintage-inspired styles. They respond beautifully to touch and dynamics, offering rich chord detail and smooth lead tones, though they are generally best suited to lower to moderate volume levels. Hollow body electric guitars are ideal for players who value warmth, expressiveness, and a more organic feel in their amplified sound.
