The AS74 is an Artcore series hollow body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in mid-2011. It was produced in China.

The AS74 features a double-cutaway, semi-hollow body design with an arched laminated maple top with ƒ holes and ivory multi-binding on maple back and sides mated to a set-in mahogany neck with a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard with ivory binding and pearloid block position markers. Components include a pair of Ibanez Super 58 Custom humbucking pickups with chrome covers and individual volume and tone controls, a Tune-o-matic style bridge with a trapeze tailpiece, a plastic nut, Sure Grip III knobs, and Ibanez tuning machines.

The AS73 is a similar model with a stop tailpiece and dot inlays. The ASF80 is a similar model with different pickups.

The AS74 was discontinued in 2014.
