The Wanderkauven Take If you love the warm, airy tone of a hollow body but find the big "jazz boxes" too bulky or prone to feedback, the Ibanez Artcore AM73B is your solution. The "AM" body shape is slightly smaller than the traditional ES-335 style, making it incredibly comfortable for players used to solid-body electrics.
What sets this specific model apart is the Tobacco Flat (Satin) finish. Unlike heavy gloss finishes that can dampen vibration, this thin matte coat lets the Maple body breathe and resonate naturally. The ACH1-S and ACH2-S humbuckers are voiced to be punchy and articulate, perfect for everything from blues and jazz to classic rock. The neck feels fast and modern, and the double-cutaway gives you easy access to the upper frets. It’s a classy, versatile workhorse.
