Ibanez AW54CE-OPN

A Great Value in a Solid-top Mahogany Acoustic-electric

The Ibanez Artwood AW54CE acoustic-electric guitar hits all the right notes. Acoustically, the AW54CE delivers big dreadnought tone that's nicely balanced by the internal X bracing. The solid okume construction gives you a great-looking instrument with a big, balanced sound that's ideal whether you're strumming or fingerpicking. With a Fishman under-saddle pickup and an Ibanez AEQ210TF preamp, you get natural-sounding amplification that's plug-n-play simple. You even get an onboard tuner. If you came to Soundselect for a great-sounding, smooth-playing acoustic-electric that's also a phenomenal value, we can highly recommend the Ibanez AW54CE

Artwood: high-quality tonewoods and amazing value

The magic of Ibanez's Artwood series acoustic guitars comes from their combination of quality tonewoods and fine construction techniques. To make the Artwood AW54CE acoustic a great-sounding yet affordable guitar, Ibanez began by selecting the best materials for the money and then applied decades upon decades of guitar-crafting experience to them. When you pick up your AW54CE, you'll be amazed by how fine this affordable acoustic guitar really is.

Solid okume construction gives your guitar a rich sonic signature

With its strong fundamentals and ample sustain, okume is a bold choice for a big-bodied dreadnought. To help balance the naturally warm tone of okume, Ibanez employs X bracing on the AW54CE to give you wide-ranging tone that doesn't become too muddy or indistinct.
