Ibanez Debuts 3rd Handcrafted Reissue: The Artist AR5000RE November 30, 2007
For the third Summer NAMM musical instrument convention in a row, Ibanez debuted a handcrafted recreation of one of the ornate vintage Ibanez guitars that are now highly sought collector's items. This year the must-have-and-hide-the-receipt-from-the-spouse instrument was the Ibanez Artist AR5000RE, a stunning combination of hi-tech (well, hi-tech for the '80s) electronics and Japanese Old World craftsmanship
Like the original, AR5000RE reissue features a mahogany body with a flamed maple top, a stunning vine neck inlay and more than enough knobs and switches to satisfy the most obsessive tone control freak: nine if you include the coil tap switches, pre-amp controls, etc.— ten if you include the standard pickup selector switch. Now starting to ship, the AR5000RE has a list of $5999.99
