Frequently asked questions
Are these guitars or basses?
The AWB50CE is a four-string acoustic bass guitar; the AEG10NIINT is a six-string classical acoustic guitar. They are completely different instruments for different players.
Which has better amplified sound?
Both use Fishman Sonicore pickups with Ibanez preamps and onboard tuners. The AWB50CE offers dual outputs (XLR and 1/4") for more flexibility; the AEG10NIINT has a single 1/4" output. Output quality depends on your amp and how well each instrument's natural tone suits your music.
What does B-Stock mean for the AEG10NIINT?
B-Stock indicates the unit has a minor cosmetic flaw—in this case, a binding flaw at the neck visible in photos—but plays and sounds as a new instrument would. It arrives ready to use at a discounted price.
Which is better for beginners?
The AEG10NIINT is rated for beginners through advanced players and features a compact body for comfort during extended practice. The AWB50CE is rated for intermediate and advanced players, and bass guitar requires a different technical foundation than classical guitar.
