Ibanez AR520HME-NT Artist Standard 2026 - Present - Natural

Ibanez AR520HME-NT ARTIST Series

The Ibanez AR520HME-NT brings the legendary ARTIST design into a modern, stage-ready guitar with a striking Macassar Ebony top, chambered body construction, and a versatile pair of Ibanez Super 58 humbuckers.

Part of the ARTIST Series AR Standard lineup, the AR520HME features the classic AR double-cutaway silhouette and set-in 3-piece Maple neck, delivering a familiar, substantial feel with excellent sustain and resonance. The chambered Maple/Okoume body helps keep the guitar comfortable while contributing to its warm, resonant character.

The Super 58 Alnico humbuckers provide a smooth, vintage-inspired voice with plenty of clarity and definition. Each pickup is paired with an independent Tri-Sound switch, allowing series, parallel, and single-coil-style tonal options for a remarkably versatile range of sounds.

The beautiful bound Jatoba fingerboard features acrylic and abalone block inlays, while the Gibraltar Performer bridge and Quik Change Classic tailpiece provide solid tuning stability, sustain, and quick string changes. Gold hardware completes the refined look.

With its combination of classic ARTIST styling, modern versatility, chambered construction, and distinctive Macassar Ebony top, the AR520HME-NT is equally at home playing jazz, blues, rock, soul, and everything in between.
