This AF95FM-AYS is a seriously good deal for players wanting a jazz-inspired guitar with a bit of extra oomph. The flamed maple top gives it a beautiful look and surprisingly good acoustic tone, and the Super 58 pickups handle everything from clean jazz to bluesy rock with authority. It’s a fantastic choice for gigging musicians or students stepping up from a beginner instrument.
