Ibanez AMH90-BK

Great guitar

This is a great guitar for the money. Well built, good sounding, very playable. The hollowbody design gives it a great tone and long sustain. And it looks really good too.

Versatile hollowbody

Needed an electric guitar with acoustic qualities (to play at home without an amp, back the singing, songwriting etc), which could be eglible for blues and bluesrock (ability to use with tube amps and overdrive, without feedback). Tried some different instruments: hollowbodies, ES-335 types, Casino (Coupe). Then got an eye on that model, the AMH90, which was new for 2021.

First impression: killer look, but action too high. Adjusted that, at least for me, the bridge needs to adjust to the lowest position. Acoustic sound: quite good, enough for me. Elecric sound: OK, quite versatile, as expected, from jazz to rocknroll (but, see below). Features: even more that usual, because of the additional tri-switch, although I almost do not use it. Sadly the occasional hum from the electronics starts to annoy me (for that 4 stars in some categories), maybe it is a defect. No other quality issues detected so far. Could still be a keeper instrument.
