Ibanez Artist AR-300 Cherry Sunburst 1981 (CIJ) (w/ OHSC)
First debuted in 1974, The Ibanez Artist series was a Les Paul Double Cut-focused competitor with custom appointments such as flame caps, multi-ply binding and advanced pickup switching. These are absolutely phenomenal guitars and represent some of the finest luthierie Fujigen had to offer in the 70s and 80s.
This example is in exceptional condition for its age and is free from any major cracks, breaks or binding rot that some of these are susceptible to. It has only minor modifications made including a refret, an extra hole drilled in the pickup ring and a few replaced screws. Aside from this, this Artist is all original and plays and sounds great. We've professionally dressed the frets and given the guitar a full complete service and setup. The tri-sound switches work perfectly and the pickups sounds incredible. As an added bonus, it comes with it's original hard shell case!
