Ibanez semi-hollow guitar with Artcore construction
The Ibanez Artcore AS73TCD is a semi-hollow guitar for players who want an electric guitar with a classic look and practical modern details. The body uses Linden top, back and sides, paired with an AS Artcore Nyatoh set-in neck. In Transparant Cherry Red, this model has a striking finish that suits the Artcore design well.
The 628 mm scale length gives you a familiar playing foundation, while the neck measures 43 mm at the nut and 57 mm at the 22nd fret. With a thickness of 21 mm at the 1st fret and 24 mm at the 9th fret, the neck profile is clearly defined in the hand. The bound walnut fretboard with acrylic block inlay and a 305 mmR radius completes the build.
Playability and hardware of the AS73TCD
You get 22 medium frets and 10.5 mm string spacing, which supports a direct and organised playing feel. The Gibraltar Performer bridge and Quik Change III tailpiece make the layout practical, with the tailpiece making string changes especially straightforward. The guitar comes factory tuned to 1E, 2B, 3G, 4D, 5A, 6E and fitted with .010/.013/.017/.030/.042/.052 strings.
The chrome hardware matches the red finish visually and gives the Ibanez AS73TCD a polished appearance. If you want advice on setup or string choice, Magna Music in Roosendaal can also help you in store with personal guidance from musicians.
Classic Elite humbuckers on this electric guitar
The Ibanez Artcore AS73TCD features a Classic Elite (H) neck pickup and a Classic Elite (H) bridge pickup. Both pickups are passive and ceramic. This gives the semi-acoustic electric guitar a humbucker configuration that suits players looking for a broadly usable setup.
With the combination of neck and bridge pickup, you have a familiar foundation for different playing styles on electric guitar. That makes this Ibanez appealing if you want an Artcore semi-hollow with a fixed bridge, set-in neck and humbuckers in a Transparant Cherry Red finish.
