Ibanez AE325 Series 6-String Acoustic-Electric Guitar (Natural Low Gloss)
Ibanez AE325 Series 6-String Acoustic-Electric Guitar features a lightweight, scalloped bridge that improves vibration efficiency for better resonance, as well as provides more flexibility in adjusting the action than the usual bridge. The guitar features out-of-the-box X-M Bracing to generate the ultimate sound standing out on the stage. The carefully designed scalloped X-bracing, the allocation of tone braces, and finger braces transmit the string vibration efficiently through the bridge to the body. The X-M Bracing creates the clear bottom and crispy treble sound with trimmed warm mid-range, yet provides a wide dynamic range and high response.
AE Body Shape
Designed for projection, balance, and comfort, the AE's perfectly crafted contemporary body shape offers the best of all worlds.
Ibanez AP11 Magnetic Pickup
The newly designed AP11 pickup is small, lightweight, and positioned so it won’t inhibit the natural vibrations of the top wood. The pickup generates a highly responsive sound with minimal feedback and delivers a lively response throughout the entire frequency range. The sound is transparent and reflects the guitar’s natural acoustic tone while preserving presence and mid-range. The AP11 also works well with effects such as reverb, chorus, and many others.
Dual Pickup System with AP11 Magnetic Pickup and T-bar Under-Saddle Pickup
AE325 also features a versatile Dual Pickup System with AP11 magnetic pickup and T-bar under-saddle pickup. Blending under-saddle pickup on magnetic pickup, you can get a more punchy and articulate tone which fits to lead play or adds the presence in the band ensemble.
Dual Outputs
Enjoy dual outputs, when plugged into the endpin jack only, you get Magnetic pickup + Undersaddle pickup with Mixed output, and when plugged into both the endpin jack and the open jack, the Magnetic pickup and Undesrsaddle pickup run independently.
Luminescent Side Dot Inlays
Luminescent side dot inlays line the side of the neck for more easily navigating the fretboard in low-light environments.
Comfort Grip with Rounded Fingerboard Edge
To achieve supreme playability, the neck was specially designed with a Thin-C shape style comfort grip with the fingerboard's rounded edge.
Jumbo Frets
The jumbo frets support easy fingering.
Flamed Okoume Back and Sides
The attractive, Flamed Okoume back and sides offer present and rich midrange tones.
African Mahogany/Pau Ferro Neck
The 5pc neck construction boasts increased stability.
Ibanez Advantage Bridge Pins
These pins 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.
