Ibanez AE100-BUF – Acoustic Guitar with Pickup

Ibanez AE100 Acoustic-electric Guitar

Brimming with pro-level appointments, the Ibanez AE100 Acoustic-electric guitar is a superb choice for the advancing guitarist seeking a top-tier performance instrument. A premium Sitka spruce top fit with okoume back and sides start this guitar off with a lush and responsive unplugged tone, complete with a personal A.I.R. sound port that provides superior sonic feedback straight to your ears. When it comes to playing comfort, Sweetwater guitarists of all styles champion the AE100’s laurel-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!

Premium Sitka spruce top

The Ibanez AE100 brandishes a premium solid Sitka spruce top — arguably the most common top wood among modern acoustic guitars of all price points for its sweet, dynamic, and wonderfully responsive characteristics. To pair with the top, Ibanez outfit this rock-solid acoustic with okoume back and sides for a rich mahogany-like warmth. And while the AE100 produces truly impressive unplugged tones, an onboard Ibanez AEQ-TP2 preamp and pickup system with onboard tuner finishes it all off with stage-ready utility.

Cutting-edge A.I.R.port

Whether you’re strumming through tunes on the couch or woodshedding your next performance piece, the Ibanez AE100’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!
