Ibanez Custom AS200 with 2-Tone Finish
Unknown brand · electric guitar
The Ibanez AS200 is the top of the AS semi-hollow line, with a maple centre block running through a bound body to control feedback, a set neck, and Super 58 humbuckers. John Scofield has played one almost exclusively since the early 1980s, and the centre-block construction is why it holds together at gain levels a fully hollow archtop could not.
