The Ibanez AAD51LCE Advanced dreadnought acoustic-electric guitar is part of the Advanced Acoustic series, a ground-up redesign that brings increased projection, modern internal engineering, and left-handed ergonomics into a single platform. Its Grand Dreadnought body is proportionally 5% larger than a traditional dreadnought and paired with a 25.6" scale length to deliver strong volume, a firm low end, and wide dynamic range. A solid Sitka spruce top with sapele back and sides shapes a clear, balanced voice with shimmering highs, defined mids, and full-bodied lows, while X-M bracing improves responsiveness across light and aggressive playing. Designed for both acoustic and amplified use, the AAD51LCE includes an Ibanez T-bar undersaddle pickup and AEQ-TP2 preamp with Bass, Treble, and Volume controls plus an onboard tuner. A Low Oval Grip okoume neck with a 1.7" nut width, 15.75" fretboard radius, and 20 frets supports comfortable playability, while features like the A.I.R.port soundhole and Advanced Access Cutaway enhance player feedback and upper-fret reach, making the AAD51LCE a versatile choice for live performance, recording, and extended playing from a left-handed perspective.
