Ibanez AEW120BG NT Acoustic Electric Guitar Natural

Ibanez AEW120BG NT Natural High Gloss Acoustic Electric Guitar

The AEW120BG NT sits comfortably in the hands with its grand concert body, soft Florentine cutaway, and approachable 42mm nut width—a responsive platform for both fingerstyle and pick work on stage or in the studio. This natural high gloss finish pairs refined aesthetics with practical amplification, making it a reliable choice for gigging players who need acoustic character without sacrificing plugged-in performance. The solid Sitka spruce top paired with bubinga back and sides delivers clear, articulate tone with good projection and sustain that cuts through a live mix.

Live Amplification & Stage Ready

The Fishman Sonicore pickup feeds into the Ibanez AEQ-SP2 preamp, which includes an onboard tuner and both XLR and ¼" outputs for direct connection to any mixing console, PA system, or audio interface. Powered by a standard 9V battery with straightforward operation, this setup delivers transparent amplified sound that preserves the natural acoustic character of the instrument—exactly what a working musician needs for dependable venue-to-venue performance.

Playability & Road-Ready Construction

A mahogany neck with dovetail joint provides structural integrity that holds up through travel and tuning demands, while the 20-fret rosewood fingerboard with maple dot position markers gives familiar, responsive playability under the fingers. Hardware includes a compensated bone saddle in the rosewood bridge, bone nut, gold Ibanez die-cast tuning machines with black buttons, and black plastic bridge pins—all designed for reliable tuning stability and articulate string response night after night.
