Folk Electro Acoustic Guitar

A bright sapphire blue, a design designed for resonance and an A.I.R. port that makes all the difference: this Ibanez AAM50CE does not do things by halves. With its solid Sitka spruce top and its Auditorium cutaway format, it subtly balances sonic depth and playing comfort. Its okoume neck with low oval profile facilitates smooth transitions, while its amaranth fingerboard adds a touch of warmth to the sound. Amplified by the AEQ-TP2 preamp and its T-bar sensor, it faithfully transcribes every nuance of your playing, whether live or via its XLR output.

From the very first chords, the AAM50CE reveals ample projection and impressive tonal balance. Its X-M bracing, the result of several years of development, optimizes the transmission of vibrations to deliver a rich and nuanced sound. The bass is deep but never invasive, while the treble maintains remarkable clarity. And thanks to its A.I.R. port, you benefit from a natural sound feedback, perfect for hearing yourself better without depending on a stage monitor.

Its ergonomic design is not limited to acoustics. The okoume neck, with its low oval profile and rounded edges, allows for instant grip, whether you are arpeggiating or playing barre chords. And for those who like to go for the highs without excessive gymnastics, the Advanced Access cutaway facilitates access to the last frets. For its part, the refined head reduces tension on the neck, ensuring stable tuning and optimal comfort, even after hours of playing.

The sapele used for the back and sides brings body to the sound, reinforcing the natural warmth of the instrument. In combination with the solid Sitka spruce top, the sound spectrum extends from round bass to crystalline treble, with a beautiful presence in the mids. The amaranth bridge, meanwhile, promotes efficient transmission of vibrations, ensuring an immediate and precise response to each attack. A real pleasure for lovers of nuances and dynamics.

An electroacoustic is also a question of amplification, and this Ibanez does not disappoint. Its AEQ-TP2 preamp offers a simple and effective equalizer, accompanied by an integrated tuner, ideal for maintaining perfect pitch at all times. And if you want to avoid unwanted noise or ensure a clean signal in the studio, the balanced XLR output is a real asset. Plug in, adjust, play: everything is designed to keep you focused on your music.
