Ibanez AAM370EOAW Advanced Acoustic Auditorium Acoustic-Electric Guitar

Whether you’re a curious beginner, an advancing intermediate, or a downsizing professional, the Advanced Acoustic Auditorium series from Ibanez provides the smooth playability and stellar tone that all guitarists covet. This acoustic-electric model features a bright and articulate solid Sitka spruce top paired with vibrant flame maple back and sides, complemented by a matching maple neck and fingerboard. An Ibanez Custom Electronics preamp with a T-bar under-saddle pickup amplifies this 6-string with phenomenally transparent clarity when you’re ready to plug in. Its Advanced Acoustic Auditorium series affiliation also promises players a variety of deluxe features, including an Acoustic Information Response (A.I.R.) sound port, a comfortable low-oval neck profile, and chrome-plated 18:1 die-cast tuning machines for superb intonation. From burgeoning songwriters to true spotlight stealers, the Ibanez Advanced Acoustic Auditorium series makes for a fantastic fit.

This Advanced Acoustic Auditorium features a solid Sitka spruce top for a clear, sharp, and forward sound accompanied by the vibrant nature of its flame maple back and sides. Ibanez’s projective X-M bracing pattern adds plentiful volume. Meanwhile, with its ergonomic low-oval profile, the maple-on-maple neck and fingerboard combo is engineered for vivid playability and an incredibly comfortable grip in hand. Its 15.75-inch fingerboard radius offers a remarkably flat playing surface for easy bends and roaming of the 20 nickel frets with effortless precision. Indeed, folk, bluegrass, and indie artists will feel right at home with the Advanced Acoustic Auditorium at their fingertips.

Not only does Ibanez’s Advanced Acoustic Auditorium series deliver exceptional sound and feel, but it also plays better than most examples in its price range. Quality hardware appointments, starting with a maple bridge that houses six steadfast Ibanez Advantage bridge pins, contribute to its stellar dependability and natural-sounding responsiveness. Anchoring things down on the other end of the guitar, Ibanez has enlisted a set of chrome-plated die-cast tuning machines with an impressive 18:1 gear ratio for precise adjustments and long-lasting intonation. Take to the stage, press record, or simply strum around the house without a worry!

Playing acoustic guitar has traditionally meant sacrificing what the artist hears due to the direction of the soundhole. However, the A.I.R. sound port integrated into each Ibanez Advanced Acoustic Auditorium series instrument prioritizes the auditory experience of the player. Superb for songwriting and vocalizing, this structural tactic provides direct monitoring for a more immersive experience with the music. But don’t worry, the Advanced Acoustic Auditorium’s standard circular soundhole in the top still projects confidently for performances.
