Ibanez announced that after a nearly ten year hiatus, the Ibanez Artist is returning as a regular series in the U.S. market. "People have been asking us for years to bring the Artist back," said Bill Reim, Senior Marketing and Advertising Manager of Hoshino. "But the whole point of the Artist when it was introduced over twenty years ago was to offer a better and more affordable alternative to the very expensive classic humbucking guitars. Now with a return to more favorable exchange rates and even more efficient manufacturing, we can bring the Artist back." The new Artist is available in a high-end Prestige Model, the AR2000; several working professional versions, and the most affordable Artist model ever, the GAX70.
