Ibanez Artist.
Doing a search for "Ibanez Artist Scofield" is a depressing experience. Is there are particular model designation?

He didn't have a signature model Artist, I think it was one of their top-end 80's models AR350 maybe.
One of his best albums, which is saying something considering his distinguished career.
Did he ever actually use the AR? Never seem him with one outside that album cover. Nor did i ever see him use the trem equipped semi from the Flat Out cover - were these just product placements/endorsements?

Anyone know the model number on this Ibanez?
Scofield started playing Ibanez solid bodies at the end of his tenure with Miles, for instance he used one on "You're Under Arrest"...not sure which model though.
That is an Ibanez Custom Shop George Benson (thin body) with tremolo.One of his best albums, which is saying something considering his distinguished career.

I own an '82 Artist AR-305AV and presumed that was the model he was using. I now see that it is really an AR-350 PLT (Pearl, Tremolo)... sniffle...Very cool! I always thought it was an AR300, but never noticed the bridge. Fantastic album with every song worth listening to over and over if you are a Sco fan.
Absolutely love the original Artist series guitars. You will build some muscles carrying thembut great playing and feeling guitars. My first guitar ever was an '82 AR50. Much later I added an AR100, and recently a very hard to come by AR500.
