<p>Ibanez original LoZ pickups have made the active pickup sounds accessible for anyone from starters to professionals. Operated by AA batteries, which are more widely available than traditional 9V batteries.</p>
<h3>Gibraltar III Bridge/Quik Change III Tailpiece</h3>
<p>With the addition of the Quik Change III tailpiece, string changes are a snap on the Gibraltar III bridge.</p>
<p>Its simple rigid design is perfect for harder playing styles.</p>
<h3>Caiman Finish</h3>
<p>The ART300 features the Caiman finish, a unique texture created by the scalloped top. This unique top combined with dark stained finishes has the look of reptilian skin.</p>
<h3>Colours:</h3>
