In what amounts to a fully reimagined acoustic experience, these instruments were designed from the ground up to deliver a richer, brighter, and louder tone, with an unprecedentedly wide dynamic range. With slightly larger than typical proportions, we decided to name this new body shape the “Grand Dreadnought.” This reinvented design achieves a superb, powerful sound, and thanks to the extensive consideration given to the ergonomics, it’s extremely comfortable to play. The Advanced Acoustic series pushes the acoustic guitar to new heights, in a way that promises an exciting new experience for all players.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Okoume neck\u003cbr\u003e The Okoume neck provides greater playing comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Purpleheart fretboard\u003cbr\u003e The Purpleheart fretboard emphasizes the beauty and the rich tonal character of this bass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Solid Sitka Spruce top\u003cbr\u003e Solid Sitka Spruce top provides an enormous frequency range that offers wave after wave of shimmering highs along with tight mids and a full-bodied low end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Sapele back and sides\u003cbr\u003e Sapele back and sides offer a full-bodied and warm mid-range and a bright tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Ibanez T-bar Undersaddle pickup\u003cbr\u003e The Ibanez T-bar Undersaddle pickup accurately translates that full sound to whatever amplification system you plug it into.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Ibanez AEQ-TP2 preamp w\/Onboard tuner\u003cbr\u003e The Ibanez AEQ-TP2 preamp provides the extra punch of on-board EQ along with a convenient and easy-to-read digital tuner and 2-band EQ, located on the instrument’s upper bout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Purpleheart bridge\u003cbr\u003e The Purpleheart bridge transfers string vibration directly to the body, delivering a natural and warm tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Ibanez Advantage™ bridge pins\u003cbr\u003e These pins really 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e****Special Features****\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Grand Dreadnought body\u003cbr\u003e Through a rigorous R\u0026amp;D process spanning several years, Ibanez has reimagined the Dreadnought from the ground up, pursuing the height of rich sound, robust low end, and rich tone. This brand new body shape is called the Grand Dreadnought. Proportionally, the Grand Dreadnought body is 5% larger than a standard dreadnought, allowing for more volume, richer tone, and more powerful low end response. It’s also extremely comfortable to play thanks to the extensive consideration given to its ergonomics\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- X-M Bracing\u003cbr\u003e After spending years of trial-and-error, Ibanez realized the 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Functional Tapered Headstock\u003cbr\u003e The newly designed headstock shape is the result of thorough research and investigation.
