Ibanez AE205JR Acoustic Guitar w/ Pickup & Gigbag (Open Pore Natural)

AE205JR
Born from a long lineage and musical heritage, the acoustic guitar is steeped in tradition. But music continues to evolve, and musicians demand inspiring new tools with which to carve out their own signature sound. In that spirit, we introduce Ibanez AE, our flagship series of acoustic-electric guitars, offer supreme tone and playability, and represent another great chapter in the acoustic guitar tradition.

Product Features

Nyatoh neck
The 3pc Nyatoh/Maple Neck provides a rich mid-low end.

Katalox fretboard
Katalox produces a tight mid-low and a strong attack in the high end. Katalox also features a quick response and rich sustain.

Solid Sitka Spruce top
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.

Okoume back and sides
The Okoume back and sides generate a woody, warm tone when the guitar is played softly or finger-picked and provide punchy high-mids with a clear projection when strummed.

Ibanez T-bar Undersaddle pickup
The Ibanez T-bar Undersaddle pickup accurately translates that full sound to whatever amplification system you plug it into.

Ibanez Custom Electronics
The compact, onboard active preamp features a mute switch to eliminate unexpected parameter changes during performances. This helps to reduce the guitar’s size and weight, minimize body contact and maximize the acoustic tone.

Katalox bridge
The Katalox 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.

Gig bag included
Ibanez Gig bags are made out of durable materials.

Special Features

Scalloped X bracing
Scalloped X bracing on the top provides responsive and balanced tone.
