Ibanez AM93QA JBB Artcore Expressionist Quilted Ash Thinline Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitar Jet Blue Burst

A Thinline Semi-Hollow with Warm Response and Clear Articulation

The Ibanez AM93QA JBB brings together the openness of a semi-hollow design with a more manageable body size that feels closer to a solid-body in practice. The quilted ash top, back and sides give the guitar a clear, slightly brighter edge, while the thinline construction keeps the low end controlled and adds natural sustain without becoming overly resonant.

Super 58 humbuckers are known for their moderate output and balanced response. They produce warm, rounded clean tones with strong note separation, which works well for complex chords and more detailed playing. When pushed, they maintain clarity rather than compressing heavily, making them suitable for a wide range of styles beyond traditional jazz.

The 3-piece Nyatoh and maple set-in neck adds stability and a solid midrange foundation. Combined with a bound Macassar ebony fingerboard, the feel is smooth and immediate, with a quick attack and clear note definition. The 305mm (12") radius supports both chord work and controlled bending without feeling restrictive.

The Gibraltar Performer bridge and Quik Change III tailpiece provide reliable tuning stability and make string changes straightforward, which is useful in regular rehearsal cycles, studio tracking or live sets.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think this is a strong option for solidbody players who want semi-hollow warmth with a slightly brighter, more articulate edge and a body that feels comfortable straight away.
