TheIbanez Advanced Auditorium Acoustic Guitar is a 6-string acoustic guitar. Low Oval Grip Okoume Neck The guitar features an Okoume neck with a low oval grip. Purpleheart Fretboard The Purpleheart fretboard emphasizes the beauty and the rich tonal character of this guitar. Purpleheart Bridge The Purpleheart bridge transfers string vibration directly to the body, delivering a natural and warm tone. Ibanez Advantage Bridge Pins 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. X-M Bracing 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. Functional Tapered Headstock The newly designed headstock shape is the result of thorough research and investigation. Its tapered shape provides lighter weight, as well as a straight string alignment which enhances tuning stability and reduces any neck twisting effect.
