This guitar has a chambered maple\/okoume body with a carved maple top. Two Super 58 Custom humbuckers with Tri-sound electronics give the Ibanez AR520 undeniable tonal tenacity; the hollowbody construction adds an airy quality, yielding a sound that guitarists here at Sweetwater simply can't get enough of. The Ibanez AR520 also features a Gibraltar Performer bridge and Quik Change Ultra tailpiece, providing long sustain and tuning stability. Plus, the 3-piece maple neck and nearly non-existent neck heel offer supreme playing comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"webtext__column webtext--text\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOkoume and maple deliver standout tone\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe right tonewoods will set the stage for how a guitar sounds when it's plugged in. And for the AR520, Ibanez used okoume and maple to great effect. The okoume's sustain and sonic complexity pairs perfectly with maple's brisk high-end. The hollowbody construction garnishes the rich sonic cocktail by adding an airy feel, resulting in a powerful sound that can serve up soulful licks or biting riffs when you match it up with the amplifier of your choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"webtext__column webtext--text\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSonic flexibility from Tri-sound electronics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AR520 is equipped with a pair of Tri-sound switches to unlock three different \"voices\" per pickup. Each of the Super 58 humbuckers can be used in series, parallel, and single-coil operation, opening the door for you to explore new and unique sounds. There's a lot of tonal territory to cover here, and you'll love exploring how each configuration sounds through your favorite amplifier or modeler.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"webtext__column webtext--text\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUltra-playable 3-piece neck\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe newest generations of Ibanez guitars have begun appearing with multi-ply necks, which is a massive improvement in the eyes of guitarists at Sweetwater. Multi-ply necks are ultra-rigid, which means they need less maintenance and help transmit string energy to your guitar's body more efficiently. The 3-piece set maple neck on the AR520 adds clarity and detail to your performance, which balances nicely with the richness and depth of the body woods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeck Type : \u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_neck_type\"\u003eAR \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_neck_material\"\u003e3pc Maple, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_neck_joint\"\u003eSet-in (smooth heel) neck\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTop\/Back\/Body : \u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_body_top_material\"\u003eMaple top, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_body_back_material\"\u003eOkoume back, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_body_material\"\u003eMaple body\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFretboard : \u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_fretboard\"\u003eBound Jatoba fretboard, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_in\"\u003eAcrylic \u0026amp; Abalone block inlay\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFret : \u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_frets\"\u003eMedium frets\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNumber of Frets : \u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_number_fret\"\u003e22\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBridge : \u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_bridge\"\u003eGibraltar Performer bridge\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eString Space : \u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_ag_string_space\"\u003e10.5mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTailpiece : \u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_tailpiece\"\u003eQuik Change Classic tailpiece\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeck Pickup : \u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_neck_pickup\"\u003eSuper 58 (H) neck pickup, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_neck_pickup_desc\"\u003ePassive\/Alnico\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBridge Pickup : \u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_bridge_pickup\"\u003eSuper 58 (H) bridge pickup, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_bridge_pickup_desc\"\u003ePassive\/Alnico\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFactory Tuning : \u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_factory_tuning\"\u003e1E,2B,3G,4D,5A,6E\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStrings : \u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_ag_string\"\u003eD’Addario® EXL110\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eString Gauge : \u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_string_gauge\"\u003e.010\/.013\/.017\/.026\/.036\/.046\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHardware Color : \u003cspan class=\"rt_cf_p_data_hardware_color\"\u003eGold\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Sound Select ZA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46738872107174,"sku":"AR520H-BK","price":14495.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0691\/1646\/1222\/files\/IbanezAR520H-BKSemi-HollowElectricGuita.png?v=1764694799","url":"https:\/\/soundselect.co.za\/fr\/products\/ibanez-ar520h-bk-semi-hollow-electric-guitar","provider":"Sound Select ZA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
