Ibanez AMH90 Artcore Expressionist Semi-Hollow Guitar – Black
Compact Semi-Hollow Power with Expressionist Versatility
The Ibanez AMH90 Artcore Expressionist delivers warm, punchy semi-hollow tone in a compact body that feels instantly familiar to solid-body players. First introduced in the early 1980s, the AM design has become a favourite for musicians who want semi-hollow resonance and sustain without the bulk of a full-size hollow-body.
Finished in a sleek Black gloss, the AMH90 pairs understated elegance with professional-level performance.
Artcore Expressionist – Jazz Heritage, Expanded Range
The Artcore Expressionist series represents a refined evolution of Ibanez’s hollow-body lineup. At the heart of the AMH90 are Super 58 humbuckers – famously favoured by George Benson, Pat Metheny and John Scofield – celebrated for their warmth, balanced articulation and excellent dynamic response.
A built-in Tri-Sound switch expands each humbucker into multiple voicings, dramatically increasing tonal flexibility beyond traditional jazz applications.
Balanced Woods, Effortless Feel
A linden top, back and sides provide a neutral, even tonal foundation that allows the guitar’s pickups and playing dynamics to shine through clearly. The 3-piece Nyatoh/Maple set-in neck adds resonance and stability, while the bound Macassar ebony fretboard delivers fast response, tight lows and smooth sustain.
Medium frets ensure accurate intonation and a comfortable playing experience across the neck, ideal for long sessions.
Reliable Hardware and Modern Control
Dual Super 58 humbuckers deliver moderate-output vintage warmth with clarity and depth. The Gibraltar Performer bridge enhances sustain and tuning stability, while the VT06 tailpiece adds both visual elegance and dependable performance. The Tri-Sound switch makes the AMH90 equally suited to jazz, blues, fusion and clean rock styles.
