Description

The Ibanez AAD1012E Advanced Acoustic is not just another 12-string guitar—it's a sonic marvel crafted for musicians in search of robust sound and exceptional playability. This grand dreadnought is designed 5% larger than its traditional counterpart, offering a rich, expansive tone with a powerful low end that fills any room. The solid Sitka spruce top combined with okoume back and sides ensures every note resonates with a warm, woody character, whether you're gently fingerpicking or strumming with vigor.

Ibanez has paid meticulous attention to detail, from the Low Oval Grip Thermo Aged nyatoh neck that delivers comfort and stability, to the ovangkol fingerboard and bridge enhancing resonance. The guitar is equipped with Ibanez Custom Electronics and the responsive AP11 magnetic pickup, which captures the natural acoustic tone with clarity, preserving the guitar's vibrant sound. Whether you're on stage or in the studio, the AAD1012E's electronics allow for versatile tone shaping, making it a reliable companion for any musical setting.

The X-M bracing provides a perfect balance of crisp treble and warm midrange, ensuring your sound is dynamic and full-bodied. And with chrome die-cast tuners sporting an 18:1 gear ratio, you can trust in solid intonation throughout your performance.
