Basswood and sapele

The sound of the guitar is powerful, clearly structured and versatile. The large dreadnought body produces a voluminous foundation with clear projection and is ideal for use with an amplifier as well as for dynamic playing. The laminated basswood top provides an even, warm tone with a direct response, while the laminated Sapele back and sides add substance and present mids to the sound. The result is a well-balanced, assertive sound character that is convincing for both rhythmic strumming and detailed picking.

Maple neck with comfort grip

The playability of the guitar is designed for a pleasant and controlled feel. The maple neck with Comfort Grip sits securely and comfortably in the hand and enables fluid movements along the entire length of the neck. In addition, the Purpleheart fingerboard with 22 frets offers a smooth playing surface for quick fingering changes. Meanwhile, the Ibanez Advantage bridge pins support robust string guidance and facilitate string changes. The result is a very accessible playing feel that invites long sessions and confident playing.

Ibanez pickup and preamp

The guitar has an Ibanez undersaddle pickup in combination with the AEQ-2T preamp, which guarantees a clean and constant sound pickup. The basic acoustic sound is captured authentically and passed on to external amplification with clear definition. Thanks to the bass and treble control, the sound can be adapted to different playing situations. The integrated tuner enables quick and unobtrusive retuning directly on the instrument and contributes to smooth operation.

Expressive design

The design of the guitar sets clear accents and combines acoustic tradition with a rock attitude. The eye-catching Red Doom Burst finish gives the instrument a powerful look and ensures an unmistakable appearance. A strikingly shaped sound hole underlines the modern character and clearly sets the guitar apart from classic acoustic guitars. On the fretboard, the eye-catching sharktooth inlays ensure a dynamic look and good orientation. The appearance is rounded off by the characteristic electric guitar headstock, which consistently continues the independent look and emphasizes the modern claim of the instrument.
