The Ibanez ALT50FA redefines the acoustic experience for electric players, offering a smooth transition between two musical worlds. As part of the acclaimed Altstar series, this model is designed for players who crave the tone and resonance of an acoustic guitar, without sacrificing the feel and familiarity of their electric roots.

Its compact dreadnought body and 25.5" scale deliver the projection and depth you’d expect from a larger instrument, while the 15.7" fingerboard radius and tight string spacing provide a fast, comfortable playing surface for intricate runs, bends, and chords. The single-cutaway design and 16th fret neck joint offer outstanding access to higher frets—perfect for soloing or extended lead work.

Visually, the Flamed Maple Art Grain top paired with Sapele back and sides creates a stunning aesthetic, while enhancing tonal richness with warm mids and crisp highs. The Comfort Grip Maple neck and Purpleheart fretboard ensure effortless fretting and long-term durability.

Whether you’re looking for a quieter practice guitar, want to expand your acoustic chops, or simply need a stage-ready hybrid instrument, the ALT50FA has you covered. Plug in via the Ibanez AEQ-2T preamp and undersaddle pickup for crisp, clear amplified tone, and stay in tune anywhere with the built-in tuner.

A true crossover acoustic, the ALT50FA invites you to explore the full spectrum of your sound with comfort, clarity, and style.
