Ibanez Artcore A75

I went to Guitar Center the other day because they had some really good deals on Epiphone Les Pauls. I set down and started to test some of the guitars out. Of course all the Les Pauls were fine. Sounded good and were as fun as usual. As I was testing out the guitars I wanted to test another guitar in order to keep a good bias , so I picked up an Ibanez Artcore hollow body.

Granted this was my first hollow body experience, but it was amazing. The guitar was really good looking and very light compared with the Les Pauls. The sound was much mellower but that was to be expected since it was hollow, but I was really impressed by how jangly and bright the guitar could sound with the humbuckers selected properly. The tone of the guitar was awesome and the feel was impeccable. I was instantly impressed by the quality of the guitar. IT was very much worth the money ($350 USD)

After trying out all the Les Pauls and such the Artcore was the only one that really had me wishing I had the extra money.

If you can get the chance, definitely try one out.
