Ibanez AW4000CE-BS Artwood Series Acoustic Electric Guitar in Brn Sunb

Ibanez AW4000CE-BS Artwood Series Acoustic Electric Guitar in Brown Sunburst High Gloss Finish

The AW4000CE-BS combines traditional acoustic craftsmanship with modern playability and electronics. This dreadnought delivers balanced response across its solid spruce top and mahogany back and sides, while the satin-finished mahogany neck and rosewood fretboard provide a comfortable, responsive playing surface. The brown sunburst high gloss finish with tortoiseshell binding gives this instrument striking visual presence.

Tone & Electronics

Solid tonewoods—Caucasian spruce top with solid mahogany back and sides—paired with traditional X bracing produce warm, resonant acoustic tone with clear definition. The Fishman® Sonicore pickup and Ibanez AEQ-SP2 preamp with onboard tuner deliver reliable amplification via balanced XLR and ¼" outputs, making this guitar equally at home in live performance or studio recording.

Playability & Feel

The neck geometry is refined for comfort: 43mm nut width expanding to 55mm at the 14th fret with a 400mm radius, coupled with precise thickness measurements (21mm at the 1st fret, 22mm at the 7th) ensure smooth fretting and minimal hand fatigue during extended play. Grover® Chrome Open Gear tuners with Butterbean knobs provide stable tuning and positive engagement.
