Ibanez AM93ME Artcore – Natural High Gloss
The Ibanez AM93ME continues the proud legacy of the Artcore Expressionist Series, blending sophisticated design, expressive tone, and exceptional comfort. Originally born from Ibanez’s early ‘80s AM design, this updated model refines the concept with a smaller, lighter semi-hollow body, while retaining the signature sustain and resonance that have made the Artcore series a worldwide favourite.
The AM93ME offers a luxurious look and feel thanks to its Macassar Ebony top, back, and sides, Bound Macassar Ebony fretboard, and gold hardware. Its tonal character is driven by Super 58 humbuckers, famous for their smooth response, clarity, and vintage-style warmth—perfect for jazz, blues, and expressive rock tones.
