This instrument has been meticulously engineered from scratch to deliver a vibrant, resonant tone, boasting an unparalleled dynamic range. The unique "Grand Dreadnought" body shape, slightly larger than standard proportions, produces a robust, commanding sound, while its ergonomic design ensures maximum playing comfort.

Experience the new heights that the Advanced Acoustic series brings to the acoustic guitar realm, offering a thrilling experience for all players. The guitar features a Low Oval Grip Thermo Aged Nyatoh neck with Rounded Fretboard Edge, designed for effortless chord strumming and superior playability. The Thermo Aged process renders the neck light, hard, and stable, enhancing resonance.

The Ovangkol fretboard of this 12-string acoustic electric guitar ensures greater playing comfort, while the Solid Sitka Spruce top delivers a vast frequency range, producing shimmering highs, tight mids, and a full-bodied low end. The Okoume back and sides contribute to a woody, warm tone when played softly or finger-picked, and provide punchy high-mids with clear projection when strummed.

The Ibanez AP11 Magnetic pickup, small and lightweight, is strategically positioned to not inhibit the natural vibrations of the top wood. It generates a highly responsive sound with minimal feedback, delivering a lively response across the entire frequency range. The sound is transparent, reflecting the guitar's natural acoustic tone while preserving presence and mid-range. The AP11 also works seamlessly with effects such as reverb, chorus, and more.

The guitar is equipped with Ibanez Custom Electronics, featuring on-board treble and bass controls for shaping the tone, making it adaptable for a variety of modern playing styles. The lightweight Ovangkol Scalloped bridge enhances vibration efficiency for improved resonance and provides more flexibility in adjusting the action.

The Ibanez Advantage bridge pins, easier to handle than standard pins, ensure that the pin and string stay in place. The Grand Dreadnought body, 5% larger than a standard dreadnought, allows for increased volume, richer tone, and a more powerful low end response.

The X-M Bracing, a result of years of trial-and-error, creates a clear bottom and crispy treble sound with a trimmed warm mid-range, providing a wide dynamic range and high response. The functional Tapered Headstock, a product of extensive research, offers lighter weight and straight string alignment, enhancing tuning stability and reducing neck twisting.
