Whether you’re a solid body player looking to expand your tonal palette, or an acoustic player who wants to transition to electric, the AS53 is an affordable way to ease into the classic sounds of the semi-hollow guitar. The warm tone of the AS53 is built around two Infinity R humbucker pickups, mounted on a solid block of wood for increased sustain and reduced feedback. The set-in Artcore neck joins the Sapele body at the 17th fret for easy access to higher notes and the bound Walnut fingerboard is adorned with Pearl dot inlay and Medium frets. Rock, Country, Jazz or Blues: the AS53 will handle it all.
