Explanation
"I don’t want to compromise on either looks or sound." For guitarists who feel this way, finding a guitar that balances individuality and quality is no easy task. For those who want a humbucker-equipped guitar capable of a wide range of tones while also boasting a beautiful appearance, the options tend to be limited.
Around 1973, in collaboration with famous musicians, "The ARTIST SERIES" was launched—a guitar project designed to directly reflect the players’ voices. Based on a symmetrical double-cutaway body shape, a wide range of models with four-digit model numbers began to be released the following year.Later, in 1979, the AR Series—featuring the "AR" model number—was introduced in Japan as a triumphant return following high acclaim overseas, and from this period onward, it was also released internationally as the AR Series.
The AR300 features a beautiful flamed maple top, achieving both visual appeal and tonal clarity. The set-neck construction—combining a mahogany body with a maple neck—delivers warm, resonant mids and brilliant highs, making it suitable for a wide range of genres.Furthermore, the Tri-Sound switch on each pickup allows you to switch between three tones: humbucker, coil tap, and phase-out. This guitar offers a wide range of expressive capabilities in a single instrument.
Furthermore, the quality unique to early 1980s Japanese-made Ibanez guitars remains intact, evident in the intricate binding and high precision of the woodworking. Its finish, showcasing craftsmanship not found in modern guitars, is truly captivating. This is not merely a reissue—it is the genuine AR.
Whether you’re a guitarist who cares about aesthetics, wants a single guitar capable of producing a wide range of sounds, or wishes to experience the perfection of a vintage Ibanez, this is the guitar we want you to pick up.
A legendary instrument that balances beauty and tonal versatility: the 1983 Ibanez AR300CS. Experience its authentic feel and sound for yourself.
