    Everything I wanted in a semi-hollow. I spent hours at two GC's AB testing Gretsch, Epiphone, D'Angelico, and Ibanez. I wanted to stay below $600 plus tax. GC was having a 15% off sale so this was just under. They don't carry the AS93FM in any store near me so I was trying the Green Valley Gradation AS73FM. The Ibanez just felt and sounded better in all aspects. I fully planned to get the Epiphone ES-335 Pro, but all of the Epiphone's had an overly bright top end with little mids or lows and the Epiphone frets felt a little rough on almost every guitar. Felt like grit when bending the strings on blues leads. The Gretsch were really nice and played well, but the Ibanez fretboards were just better. I broke my own rule by buying a guitar I have never played by ordering the AS93FM. I wanted the ebony fret-board on the AS93FM vs the Laurel on the AS73. I have had the AS93FM for three weeks now and I am so impressed every time I plug it in. The ebony fretboard and neck are really nice. The tone is better than I could have asked. It just sings to me. The lows, mids, and highs are balanced nicely and the Super 58 custom pickups sound so good. I have a '91 Gibson Les Paul Studio and a 2019 Fender SSS Strat (all from GC over the last 28 years) and the tone from the Ibanez is just so good I can't hardly put it down. I play classic rock (AC/DC, Steve Miller, Joan Jett), Blues (BB, Bo), and some classic country (Cash, John Denver, Elvis), and the tone is better than I expected in every genre. The setup out of the box was good although I always change strings right away. I did polish the frets and oil the ebony board, but I didn't really need to. I highly recommend! Oh, the finish is also spectacular. I went cherry flamed top. Every that sees it just loves it.

    The Ibanez AS93FM Artcore has an ETA of mid June. How an instrument "feels" is a very personal opinion, not a spec.

    You would have to order through the New York store, and they can hold it for you for up to two weeks, so you would have to order before you travel to the US.
