About this listing
A.I.R.portThrough intensive research and development, we have designed the A.I.R.port with a unique internal structure that reflects sound waves and guides them to exit from a precisely positioned sound hole. As a result, players can monitor what they are playing more clearly, which enhances the overall playing experience.Advanced Auditorium BodyWith the concept of Advanced Acoustics - "Reimagining Acoustic Experience" in mind, we carefully designed the new body shape of the Advanced Auditorium, drawing on our research into the general Auditorium body shape. After many rounds of prototyping, the Advanced Auditorium body has a slightly wider waist, which has been moved slightly towards the neck. Thanks to these changes, this shape delivers a richer low mids and better body to weight balance, which conventional Auditorium bodies tend to lack.X-M bracing for AAM seriesAfter more than two years of trial and error, research, and prototyping, Ibanez developed its proprietary X-M bracing specifically for Advanced Auditorium guitar bodies to produce the ultimate sound for the stage and studio. The carefully designed scalloped X-M bracing, tone braces, and finger braces efficiently transmit string vibration from the bridge to the body. This bracing provides a wide dynamic range and excellent response. The mids are slightly scooped for better tonal balance, and the treble has the clarity of steel strings while retaining the warmth of nylon strings.Low Oval Grip Thermo Aged African Mahogany neck with Rounded Fretboard EdgeThe Low Oval neck grip facilitates easy chord strumming and the Rounded Fretboard Edges deliver superior playability. Thermo Aging, a special drying process, makes the neck light and hard and provides excellent stability and enhanced resonance.Rosewood fretboardRosewood fretboard provides a well-balanced solid tone with a focused mid range.Rosewood Scalloped bridgeThe lightweight, scalloped bridge improves vibration efficiency for better resonance and provides more flexibility in adjusting the action than does a typical bridge.Solid Sitka Spruce topSolid 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.Sapele back and sidesSapele back and sides offer a full-bodied and warm mid-range and a bright tone.Functional Tapered HeadstockThe newly designed headstock shape is the result of thorough research and investigation. Its tapered shape provides lighter weight, as well as a straight string alignment which enhances tuning stability and reduces any neck twisting effect.Ibanez AEQ-TP2 preamp w/Onboard tunerThe 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.Ibanez T-bar Undersaddle pickupThe Ibanez T-bar Undersaddle pickup accurately translates that full sound to whatever amplification system you plug it into.Ibanez Advantage bridge pinsThese 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.PreampThe neck side of the preamp is the top of the control panel. There is one button switch and three knobs towards the top of the control panel. The button furthest left is the tuner on/off switch. To the right of that are the bass, treble, and volume knobs.FeaturesBody Shape : Advanced Auditorium BodyBracing : X-M BracingTop : Solid Sitka Spruce topBack & Sides : Sapele Back & Sapele SidesNeck : Low Oval Grip With Rounded Fretboard Edge / thermo Aged African Mahogany NeckFretboard : Rosewood FretboardBridge : Rosewood Scalloped BridgeBody Binding : Rounded Body Edge BindingInlay : White Dot InlaySoundhole Rosette : AbaloneTuning Machine : Chrome Die-Cast Tuners (18:1 Gear Ratio)Nut Material : BoneNumber Of Frets : 20Bridge Pins : Ibanez AdvantageStrings : D'Addario XTAPB1253String Gauge : .012/.016/.024/.032/.042/.053String Space : 11mmFactory Tuning : 1E,2B,3G,4D,5A,6EPickup : Ibanez T-Bar UndersaddlePreamp : Ibanez AEQ-TP2 Preamp W/Onboard TunerOutput Jack : Balanced XLR & 1/4" OutputsBattery : 9V X1Case Sold SeparatelyBody Dimensionsa : Length : 19 1/2"b : Width : 15 3/8"c : Max Depth : 4 3/16"Neck DimensionsScale : 634mm/25"a : Width : 43mm at NUTb : Width : 55mm at 14Fc : Thickness : 21mm at 1Fd : Thickness : 22mm at 7FRadius : 400mmR
