Ibanez AAD170CE Advanced Acoustic Cutaway Guitar, Ovangkol Fretboard, Natural Low Gloss

Make your music come alive with the AAD170CE Advanced Acoustic Cutaway Guitar, featuring an Ovangkol Fretboard and a Natural Low Gloss finish. This Ibanez-crafted instrument is the result of years of research and development, culminating in a reimagined Grand Dreadnought body that is 5% larger than standard dreadnoughts. This unique design enhances volume, enriches tone, and bolsters the low-end response, creating a rich, robust sound that stands out on any stage.

The guitar's ergonomic design ensures comfort during play, while the innovative X-M Bracing system, a product of extensive trial and error, optimizes sound transmission. The carefully crafted scalloped X-bracing, along with the strategic placement of tone braces and finger braces, efficiently transmits string vibrations through the bridge to the body. This results in a clear bottom, crisp treble sound, and a warm, trimmed mid-range, all while offering a wide dynamic range and high responsiveness.

The AAD170CE Advanced Acoustic Cutaway Guitar also boasts an Advanced Access Cutaway, starting from the 18th fret, and a shaved side for exceptional high fret access. The Low Oval Grip Thermo Aged Nyatoh neck, coupled with Rounded Fretboard Edges, ensures easy chord strumming and superior playability. The Thermo Aged drying process makes the neck light, hard, and stable, enhancing resonance for a fuller sound.

The guitar's Functional Tapered Headstock, a result of thorough research, offers a lighter weight and straight string alignment, enhancing tuning stability and reducing neck twisting. The Ibanez AP11 Magnetic pickup, small and lightweight, is strategically positioned to not inhibit the top wood's natural vibrations. This pickup 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 many others. Experience the power and precision of the AAD170CE Advanced Acoustic Cutaway Guitar, your partner in creating unforgettable music.
