Description

Ibanez produced the AS63LMY as part of the AS Series, positioning it as a hollow body electric guitar within the Artcore family. The model carried a Lemon Yellow finish and was built around an AS Artcore neck profile fashioned from Nyatoh, joined to the body via a set-in construction.

The body employed Sapele for the top, back, and sides. A bound Walnut fretboard with white dot inlays ran 22 medium frets across a 628 mm (24.7") scale, with a nut width of 43 mm and a fretboard radius of 305 mm R. Neck dimensions measured 21 mm in thickness at the first fret and 24 mm at the ninth. Body depth reached a maximum of 2 5/8". Electronics consisted of a pair of passive, ceramic Infinity R humbuckers — one at the neck, one at the bridge — wired through chrome hardware. The Gibraltar Performer bridge and Quik Change III tailpiece handled intonation and string anchoring respectively, with a string spacing of 10.5 mm at the bridge. The guitar left the factory strung with a .010–.052 gauge set in standard E tuning.

Owners seeking replacement parts — including bridge saddles compatible with the Gibraltar Performer, Quik Change III tailpiece studs, or Infinity R pickup covers — should consult a qualified guitar technician or luthier, who can also verify setup dimensions against the factory neck profile measurements noted above.

Nothing in The Vault is for sale. These records exist so the instruments stay documented after the manufacturer moves on — and the most useful part of that record is what owners add to it.

The catalog shot showed one finish, under one light, a long time ago. Yours has been played. Photos from owners are what the next person finds when they are trying to identify a part, match a finish, or work out whether the one they just bought is really what the seller said it was.

Specs only go so far. What actually fits, what breaks first, what the factory got right and what everyone ends up changing — that lives with the people who own them, not in a datasheet. Post what you know and it stays on this page for whoever comes looking next.
