Great feeling, looking and playing guitar. Very comfortable neck. The neck is rounder/thicker and the fret board is narrower than the original Artist guitars (I also have an 83 Ar100). The body is shallower and much lighter than the original. The only weak point that I can complain about is the Super 58 pick ups. I didn't like them in the original guitar and the new super58s are a weaker version of the original. Change those out and you will have a go to guitar, It has quickly become one of my keepers! I should add that you must try multiple Ibanez AR guitars in order to find the "one". I did try others before buying mine that sounded and felt like ornate drift wood. If you get a good one, you won't be disappointed. Great value guitar no matter what country it is made in (for you made in China haters).

Solid guitar for the money 4 of 4 customers found this review helpful

Well built, solid, medium thick body with a smooth neck. The electronics are smooth through the entire range and the coil split/reverse polarity is a nice option which can produce tons of great sounds. The pickups are medium output and are suited well to blues, jazz, or classic rock. I have a tough time getting any really great metal sounds from this guitar, it's great with overdrive, but lacks with heavy distortion; just not built for it. The fit and finish is spot on, and the guitar has a really nice balance. With a slight set up the action can be set extremely low and the neck is dead straight. For anyone looking for a low cost second guitar, or even a great all around workhorse, it's pretty hard to go wrong with this.

I bought mine used at a significantly lower price than in the store. Saying that, this guitar plays, feels and looks great. It did need setting up and the fret ends filed but what you get for the money is still excellent value. I've played a few original AR models from the 80's and this guitar is thinner and lighter but with the mini toggle switches, it can cover alot of tonal ground with the right amp! Great comfortable neck with a smooth seamless body joint. A real pleasure to play. This guitar is great for rock, blues and jazz. The pickups are IMO not meant for metal.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
