AE340FMHMHS Flagship Acoustic Electric Guitar, Flamed Okoume Top, Mahogany Back and Sides.
AE SERIES
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.
The Ibanez AE340FMH Acoustic Electric Guitar is a flagship model that blends tradition with modern innovation. It features a flamed okoume top, back, and sides that produce a warm, mid-range focused tone. The guitar also has a Comfort Grip nyatoh neck and rounded fingerboard edges for smooth, fatigue-free playing.
Features
A.I.R.port
Through intensive research and development, we have designed the A.I.R.port with a unique internal structure that reflects sound waves and guides them to exit from a precisely positioned sound hole. As a result, players can monitor what they are playing more clearly, which enhances the overall playing experience
X-M Bracing
After spending years of trial-and-error, Ibanez realized the out-of-the-box X-M Bracing to generate the ultimate sound standing out on the stage. The carefully designed scalloped X-bracing, the allocation of tone braces, and finger braces transmit the string vibration efficiently through the bridge to the body. The X-M Bracing creates the clear bottom and crispy treble sound with trimmed warm mid-range, yet provides a wide dynamic range and high response.
AE body shape
- Designed for projection, balance, and comfort, the AE's perfectly crafted contemporary body shape offers the best of all worlds
Ibanez Custom Electronics w/ Volume and Tone Control
- The guitar also features on-board treble and bass controls for contouring the tone, making the AE suitable for variety of applications for modern players.
Comfort Grip w/Rounded Fingerboard Edge
- In order to achieve supreme playability, the neck was specially designed with Thin-C shape style comfort grip with fingerboard's rounded edge.
Jumbo Frets
- The jumbo frets support easy fingering.
Solid Flamed Okoume top
- Solid Flamed Okoume top offers a full-bodied and warm mid-range and a bright tone.
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 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.
Rosewood Scalloped bridge
- The lightweight, scalloped bridge improves vibration efficiency for better resonance and provides more flexibility in adjusting the action than does a typical bridge.
Rosewood fretboard
- Rosewood fretboard provides a well-balanced solid tone with a focused mid range.
