A Rock-solid Performer with Ibanez’s A.I.R.port
Brimming with exceptional appointments, the Ibanez AE160 acoustic-electric is a superb choice for advancing guitarists seeking top-tier playability. This guitar’s solid Sitka spruce top and ovangkol body supply a bright, midrange-forward, and rosewood-like voicing with plenty of projection, complemented by a personal A.I.R. sound port that provides superior sonic feedback straight to your ears. When it comes to playing comfort, guitarists of all styles champion the AE160’s ovangkol-topped nyatoh neck for its supremely playable Comfort Grip profile. You also get a stage-ready Ibanez AEQ-TP2 preamp and pick system with built-in tone controls and an onboard tuner. A comfortable cutaway seals the deal, all adding up to a powerhouse of an acoustic-electric guitar destined for the stage!
Voiced by Sitka spruce and ovangkol
Comprised of a solid Sitka spruce top and ovangkol back and sides, the Ibanez AE160 exudes a tonal character that's articulate and just aching to be heard. Ovangkol's rich and ever-present midrange works flawlessly with the projective clarity of its Sitka spruce top to develop a sound that beautifully showcases chords and lead lines in both flatpicked and fingerstyle varieties. Take it to the stage, and this tone will captivate. Put it under the microscope in the studio, and you'll really hear its musical complexities come to life!
Cutting-edge A.I.R.port
Whether you’re strumming through tunes on the couch or woodshedding your next performance piece, the Ibanez AE160’s A.I.R.port (Acoustic Information Response) makes solo playing a joy with superior sonic feedback. While most acoustic guitars project solely through their soundhole — and away from your ears — Ibanez’s A.I.R.port-equipped guitars sport a secondary soundhole on the upper bout pointed directly toward your ears. This design offers a more pleasing and full-sounding tone in both the seated and standing positions and a brilliant aural snapshot of what your audience hears on the other end!
Electronics to keep you plugged in
When its time to change gears, the AE160 can shift right along with you, thanks to its Ibanez Custom Electronics that offer total control for plugged-in sessions. The AE160 features an Ibanez T-bar undersaddle pickup that offers that natural piezo-style sound with plenty of range. It's also a great pickup for those looking for a more percussive pickup, capturing palm hits and delivering a bass drum-like response. You'll also have access to onboard bass and treble controls to further contour your sound with the AEQ-TP2 preamp. Plus, guitarists appreciate how this preamp system provides an onboard tuner for quick and easy tuning.
