What is this Ibanez model that Erik Soderlind is playing?

[Grigoris]

Help me identify this guitar please? It looks like a higher end signature model, but the logo doesn't look like the Pat Metheny series; It can't be Benson nor Scofield anyway. The guitar looks similar to an Eastman AR503

By the way, if anyone has a link to a transcription of Sodelind's adaptation of "Song For My Lady" for solo guitar, I am interested

Looks like an AFC-151 "Contemporary" with an aftermarket pickup. Cool guitar.

Looks like an AFC151, but with a non-stock pickup.

Yes, previous posts are correct. The guitar is "contemporary" indeed, with sleek design, the looks and flawless quality. Alas, the ones I tried had been baptized in a bowl of PU finish, and the original mini-humbucker sounded trebly and thin, no matter how much I wanted that guitar.

Edit: Erik's guitar looks like the least expensive version, which lacks the solid-color finish. As with all Ibbies, mucho guitar for the price. Pity about the original PU choice. Just an opinion.

Initially I thought he was playing "Tennessee Waltz."

Indeed, it is an Ibanez AF-151 with a Kent Armstrong surface mount 12 pole pickup.

Interesting... hadn't heard of this model, it got very good reviews but Ibanez only made it for 2 years (?).

Ibanez discontinues the AFC series?

This is the new iteration of it? - AFC71 | Ibanez Wiki | Fandom

P.S. - Oh, it's only sold in Japan

Here is the Ibanez Wiki page for the AFC151:
