GART30 Black Night (more images)

The GART30 is an ART series solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in 2009. It is produced in China as part of the entry-level GIO line.

As the most affordable ART model it is somewhat different from the other ART models in terms of specifications. The differences include a bolt-on neck (instead of set-in), a flat topped basswood body and maple neck instead of mahogany.

The GART30L is a left-handed version. The GART30B is a very similar guitar with black hardware.

The GART30 was discontinued after 2010.
