The AR300GR is an Artist series solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in 1983. It was made in Japan by FujiGen.
The AR300GR is specially equipped for use with a Roland GR-300 guitar synth. It has a bound dish carved flame maple top on a double-cutaway mahogany body mated to a set-in three-piece maple neck with a 22-fret ebony fingerboard with binding and pearl and abalone split block position markers. Components include a pair of Ibanez Super 58 humbucking pickups with individual volume and tone controls, a Tune-o-matic style Gibraltar bridge with embedded sustain block and tailpiece, VelveTune II machine heads and Sure Grip II knobs.

The AR305GR is a similar model with a burl mahogany top. The AR300 is a similar model without the Roland synth componentry.
It's believed the AR300GR was produced only in 1983 in very limited numbers and sold only in Japan.
