Dreadnought

Ibanez AAD50CE-LBS

Electro-Acoustic Guitar / HN251441

Description of product

The ergonomic design of Ibanez Advanced Acoustic guitars is based on the insights gained from the AE series and the Fingerstyle collection. The large body of the guitars, labeled as "Grand Dreadnought", is 5 percent larger than standard Dreadnought models, offering a louder richer sound with more pronounced bass than conventional Dreadnoughts provide. Thanks to the redesign, it also offers greater playing comfort.

The front of the AAD50CE-LBS is made from Sitka spruce, while the back and sides are made from plywood sapele, a wood visually and botanically related to real mahogany. A purpleheart fingerboard with twenty frets is glued to the okoumé neck. The resonance of the top is supported by modified X-M ribbing, which optimally transmits the vibrations of the strings throughout the body. A deep body cutout (Advanced Access Cutaway) ensures good matching even at higher fretboard positions.

The strings are anchored via a plastic zero fret and saddle in chrome Die-Cast mechanisms with an 18:1 gear ratio and a purpleheart headstock. Ibanez Advantage pegs offer the advantages of easy handling and a solid string fit over standard models. The stylish look of the instrument is accentuated by traditional elements in the form of a rosette composed of black and white rings and a black pickguard.

The instrument's sound is provided by an Ibanez T-bar pickup and AEQ-TP2 preamp with a two-band EQ and built-in tuner. The signal from the guitar can be output via a standard instrument cable (Jack 6.3 mm) or a balanced XLR output.
