Specifically, the Artcore Expressionist instruments offer a warm, balanced sound with excellent dynamic response from the popular Ibanez Super 58 passive humbuckers with Alnico magnets. Their satisfied "users" include jazz guitar legends such as Pat Metheny and John Scofield, as well as funk player Eric Krasno.
The body of the guitar is made of exotic zebrawood with an awesome wood grain. To the neck, composed of three pieces of nyatoh and maple wood, is glued an ebony fingerboard with twenty-two Medium-sized frets and position blocks made of imitation mother-of-pearl. Stability of tuning and good sustain are guaranteed by the Gibraltar Performer's fixed headstock and Quick Change III string changer, which, as the name suggests, allows quick and easy string changes. The stylish design is accentuated by bright trim, gold hardware, a practical imitation tortoiseshell pickguard, Sure Grip III potentiometers and a logo on the headstock.
