DESCRIPTION

Introducing the Ibanez AE390, a flagship acoustic-electric guitar that stands at the forefront of Ibanez’s acoustic lineage, blending tradition with innovation. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this instrument is designed to inspire musicians seeking supreme tone and playability to carve out their unique musical identity. The Comfort Grip Maple neck with Rounded Fretboard Edge ensures superior playability, offering a comfortable and smooth experience for the discerning player.

The guitar boasts a Rosewood fretboard that contributes to a well-balanced, solid tone with a focused mid-range. Enhanced playability is further accentuated by the presence of Jumbo frets, facilitating smooth navigation across the fingerboard, especially during intricate single-note playing. The instrument’s tonal foundation is built on a Solid German Spruce top, providing sensitive tones and pristine clarity.

The AE390’s visual allure is heightened by Flamed Maple back and sides, delivering bright and tight tones while creating an attractive profile. The inclusion of an Ibanez T-bar Undersaddle pickup ensures accurate translation of the guitar’s full sound when connected to amplification systems, making it versatile for various performance settings.

Diving into the realm of customization, the AE390 features Ibanez Custom Electronics with Volume and Tone Control. These onboard controls empower players to contour their tone, adapting it to a spectrum of modern applications. The Rosewood Scalloped bridge enhances the guitar’s resonance and sustain, adding another layer to its sonic character.

The instrument is not only a testament to tradition and innovation but also embodies several special features that set it apart. The revolutionary X-M Bracing system, born from years of trial-and-error, stands out for its ability to generate an ultimate sound on the stage. The combination of carefully designed scalloped X-bracing, tone braces, and finger braces efficiently transmits string vibrations through the bridge to the body, creating a clear bottom, crispy treble, and trimmed warm mid-range with a wide dynamic range and high response.

The AE390’s body shape is another standout feature. The contemporary AE body shape, meticulously crafted for projection, balance, and comfort, offers the best of all worlds to the player. Additionally, the Comfort Grip with Rounded Fingerboard Edge ensures supreme playability with a Thin-C shape style comfort grip and a fingerboard’s rounded edge, adding to the overall ergonomic design.

Incorporating the innovative A.I.R.port and the advantageous Ibanez Advantage™ bridge pins, the AE390 truly represents the evolution of acoustic guitars. This instrument is more than an acoustic-electric guitar; it’s a versatile canvas for musicians to paint their musical journey, blending tradition with cutting-edge features.
