Ibanez AW54CE Artwood Traditional Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Open Pore Natural Bundle with Case, Tuner, Strap, D'Addario Strings, Picks, Austin Bazaar Instructional DVD, and Polishing Cloth

The Ibanez Artwood Traditional Acoustic-Electric Guitar belongs to the Artwood series, which blends traditional acoustic design with modern construction techniques. Honoring acoustic guitar heritage while embracing innovation, this model features a Nyatoh neck that delivers a rich mid-low end, and Okoume back and sides that produce a woody, warm tone when played softly or finger-picked, with punchy high-mids and clear projection when strummed. The Laurel bridge and fretboard enhance resonance and tonal warmth, ensuring a natural sound. For amplified performance, the guitar includes an Ibanez AEQ-TP2 preamp with a 2-band EQ and an easy-to-read digital tuner located on the upper bout. The T-bar Undersaddle pickup captures the guitar’s full tone with accuracy across amplification systems. It also features Advantage bridge pins, which are easier to grip and remove than standard pins, with a special bulb-shaped end that prevents over-insertion and keeps the pin and string securely in place. This guitar is a seamless fusion of tradition and technology, made for the modern musician.
