Description

The 1978 Ibanez FA-100 is a testament to the golden era of guitar craftsmanship, blending vintage allure with the rich, resonant tones expected from a semi-hollowbody electric guitar. Celebrated for its versatility, this guitar offers a warm, full-bodied sound perfect for jazz, blues, and rock enthusiasts alike. The FA-100's design pays homage to traditional luthiery while incorporating the innovation that Ibanez is renowned for.

Crafted in the late '70s, the FA-100 features a laminated spruce top coupled with maple back and sides, ensuring a well-balanced sound projection. The use of a set-in neck made from mahogany contributes to sustained notes, while the rosewood fretboard provides a comfortable playing experience. This model is equipped with Ibanez Super 70 pickups, known for their clear articulation and dynamic range, allowing players to explore a wide tonal palette.

Aesthetically, the FA-100 showcases the classic double-cutaway design, granting easy access to higher frets and enhancing playability. The guitar's elegant binding and vintage-style tuners add to its visual charm, making it not only a joy to play but also a striking piece for any collection.
