When the smoke had cleared in 2002, players, music store owners and the music industry press were stunned by the debut of the affordable Artcores. And in 2005, when Ibanez lifted the curtain on the exquisite Artcore Customs, shock turned to disbelief.
How else could such beautiful instruments be produced at such approachable prices? 2008 marks the debut of four new Artcore Custom models, all of which feature the exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail that players have now come to expect. These instruments are future classics at todays bargain prices.
