The AR112 is a twelve string Artist series solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in 1981. It was made in Japan by FujiGen and replaced the similar 24-fret AR350 & 2618/12.
The AR112 features an arched flame maple top on a double-cutaway mahogany body mated to a set-in three-piece maple neck with a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard with binding and pearloid dot position markers. Components include dual Ibanez humbucking pickups mounted in creme pickup rings with individual volume and tone controls w/ push-push Duo sound switching, a Gibraltar Tune-O-Matic style bridge and special stop tailpiece with integrated "cloud" ornament, rubberized Sure Grip control knobs and VelveTune machine heads.
For 1983 the Gibraltar bridge and Quik Change tailpiece were replaced with the Gibraltar II bridge and Quik Change II tailpiece.
