DISC Ibanez AEW51, Natural

Full Description

Ibanez have crafted a guitar not only visually stunning, but tonally excelling with the AEW51. The large body with an extended, shallow cutaway is a great structure for strumming and fingerpicking, with the ability for a loud volume to be produced. The back and sides feature many complementing woods. The Rosewood supplies multiple overtones, the Spalted Maple emphasises clear highs, and the Walnut pushes the mids and natural resonance. Ibanez have given the AEW51 a balance of timbers that will be suited to acoustic artists looking to have an electro acoustic guitar that has its own voice rich in tonal qualities.

About Ibanez

Over the past 30 years, Ibanez Guitars have always been at the forefront of developing the right tools for Electric Guitar players pushing the boundaries of music. For decades, Ibanez designers and luthiers have been the embodiment of this ideology, pushing their skills to the edge of imagination, consistently creating some of the most versatile and unique instruments ever. Although Ibanez guitars have been made since 1908, it wasn't until the late 1980’s that they began to form an identity for themselves when artists such as Steve Vai and Frank Zappa began using their instruments. Now with a huge artist clientele across the globe Ibanez are a leading manufacturer of electric guitars and basses and a first choice for many dedicated musicians.
