Born from a long lineage and musical heritage, the acoustic guitar is steeped in tradition. But music continues to evolve, and musicians demand inspiring new tools with which to carve out their own signature sound. In that spirit, we introduce Ibanez AE, our flagship series of acoustic-electric guitars, offer supreme tone and playability, and represent another great chapter in the acoustic guitar tradition.

Features

• Comfort Grip 5pc Okoume/Pau Ferro neck with Rounded Fretboard Edge
  For exceptional playability, the neck features a comfortable Thin-C profile with rounded fingerboard edges. The Okoume/Pau Ferro 5-piece neck construction ensures enhanced durability.
• Rosewood fretboard
  Rosewood fretboard provides a well-balanced solid tone with a focused mid range.
• Jumbo frets
  Jumbo frets contribute to smooth playability, especially for single-note playing.
• Solid Sitka Spruce top
  Solid Sitka Spruce top provides an enormous frequency range that offers wave after wave of shimmering highs along with tight mids and a full-bodied low end.
• Flamed Okoume back and sides
  The attractive Flamed Okoume back and sides offer punchy and rich mid-range tones.
• Fishman S-Core pickup
  The Fishman S-Core pickup accurately translates a full guitar sound to whatever amplification system you plug into.
• Ibanez AEQ-SP2 preamp w/Onboard tuner
  The Ibanez AEQ-SP2 Preamp delivers excellent sonic reproduction and control of tonal characteristics and easy operation
• Rosewood Scalloped bridge
  The lightweight, scalloped bridge improves vibration efficiency for better resonance and provides more flexibility in adjusting the action than does a typical bridge.
• Ibanez Advantage bridge pins
  These pins really are an advantage over old-fashioned pins. Advantage pins are easier to take out and easier to put in than standard pins. A special bulb-shaped end makes the pin easy to grip and also prevents the pin from being pushed in too far. Best of all, with Advantage the pin and string stay put.
