Ibanez AAD50-TCB Acoustic Guitar, Transparent Charcoal Burst

Presenting the Ibanez AAD50-TCB Acoustic Guitar, seen here in the lush Transparent Charcoal Burst, an affordable, cutting-edge musical instrument that produces distinct and well-defined acoustic sound, coupled with a comfortable, ergonomic playing experience and a durable, dependable construction.

Drawing from decades of experience in crafting traditional steel-string acoustics, Ibanez has innovated the larger-than-usual Grand Dreadnought body for the AAD50 model, significantly amplifying tonal richness, volume, and overall presence. This foundational design is further elevated by the crisp tones of the solid spruce soundboard and the impactful resonance provided by the Sapele back and sides.

Key Features:

• Grand Dreadnought Body - After an extensive research and development endeavour lasting multiple years, Ibanez has completely redesigned the traditional Dreadnought, aiming to attain the epitome of a resonant sound, strong low-frequency response, and lush tone. This innovative body design is now known as the Grand Dreadnought. The proportions of the Grand Dreadnought body surpass a standard dreadnought by 5%, enhancing volume, enriching tone, and delivering a more forceful low end. Moreover, its ergonomic design has been meticulously crafted, ensuring an exceptionally comfortable playing experience.
• Functional Tapered Headstock - The redesigned headstock shape is a product of extensive research and careful analysis. Its tapered design achieves a lighter weight and ensures a straight string alignment, ultimately improving tuning stability and minimizing any potential neck-twisting effects.
• Ibanez Advantage Bridge Pins - These Advantage pins present a significant improvement over conventional ones. They offer enhanced ease of removal and insertion compared to standard pins. The distinctive bulb-shaped end not only facilitates easy gripping but also acts as a stopper, preventing the pin from being inserted too deeply. Moreover, using Advantage™ ensures that both the pin and string remain securely in place, providing optimal stability.
