Ibanez built the AS73OLM as part of the AS Series Artcore line, a hollow body electric guitar positioned as an accessible entry point into the Artcore family. The AS73OLM carried the Olive Metallic finish and was fitted with the AS Artcore neck profile, set into the body via a set-in joint.
The guitar was constructed with a Linden top, back, and sides, paired with a Nyatoh neck. The bound Walnut fretboard ran 22 medium frets across a 305mm radius, with acrylic block inlays marking positions. Scale length measured 628mm (24.7"). Nut width came in at 43mm. The hardware suite ran in chrome throughout, anchoring a Gibraltar Performer bridge with 10.5mm string spacing and a Quik Change III tailpiece. Two passive, ceramic-loaded Classic Elite humbucker pickups — one at the neck, one at the bridge — handled the signal chain. The guitar left the factory strung to standard E tuning with a .010–.052 gauge set.
Owners researching replacement parts — including bridge saddles, tailpiece studs, tuning machines, or pickup covers compatible with this configuration — should consult the physical measurements above and bring the instrument to a qualified guitar technician for fitting confirmation.
STRAIGHT TALK
What Stands Out
Keep In Mind
From the people who own them
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.
Owner photos
Put yours on the record.
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.
What do you know about this one?
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.
