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 Maple neck
  The Comfort Grip Maple Neck contour provides superior playability.
• Thermo Aged™ Ovangkol fretboard
  Thermo Aged™, a special drying process, makes the Ovangkol fretboard light and harder and provides increased stability.
• 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 Maple back and sides
  Flamed Maple back and sides create an attractive visual profile and offer bright and tight tones.
• Ibanez T-bar Undersaddle pickup
  The Ibanez T-bar Undersaddle pickup accurately translates that full sound to whatever amplification system you plug it into.
• Ibanez AEQ-TP2 preamp w/Onboard tuner
  The Ibanez AEQ-TP2 preamp provides the extra punch of on-board EQ along with a convenient and easy-to-read digital tuner and 2-band EQ, located on the instrument’s upper bout. 
• Thermo Aged™ Ovangkol Scalloped bridge
  The lightweight, scalloped bridge enhances vibration transfer for improved resonance and offers greater flexibility when adjusting the action compared to a traditional bridge. Thermo Aged™, a specialized drying process, makes the bridge even lighter and harder for increased stability.
• 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.
