Sound & Tone
The solid Sitka spruce top over mahogany back and sides gives this dreadnought a warm, woody midrange with clear treble definition and the strong projection the body shape is known for, while the bone nut and saddle help the notes ring out with sustained clarity. The 25.6-inch scale keeps string tension firm enough for confident strumming without feeling stiff under the fingers. It handles flatpicked rhythm work in folk, country and rock settings with authority, and the balanced neck dimensions and 400mm fretboard radius make it equally comfortable for fingerstyle passages and detailed chord voicings.
Ibanez AW4000 BS Artwood Brown Sunburst Gloss Acoustic Guitar
The AW4000 BS sits comfortably in your hands with a balanced dreadnought body and satin-finished mahogany neck that stays smooth through long gigs and practice sessions. At 651mm scale with a carefully dimensioned neck profile, this guitar responds cleanly to your fretting hand while delivering the projection and resonance you need to cut through in a mix. The brown sunburst gloss finish shows some cosmetic wear on the neck side—visible in photos—but the structural integrity and playability remain excellent for a B-stock offering.
Construction & Materials
Built with a solid Sitka spruce top paired with mahogany back and sides, this guitar combines traditional acoustic design with modern tonal refinement. The tortoiseshell body binding and black & white ABS rosette add visual character, while the bone nut and saddle support clear, sustained resonance. The rosewood fretboard and 20-fret configuration provide familiar, reliable playability across a full range of positions.
On Stage & in Your Hands
The mahogany neck with satin finish lets your hand move freely without the drag of high-gloss coatings, keeping you locked in during extended sets. Precise neck dimensions—43mm width at nut, 55mm at the 14th fret, with 21–22mm thickness—give you a natural, confident grip whether you're fingerpicking intricate passages or driving flatpick rhythms. The 400mm radius fretboard geometry supports clean chord definition and intonation across the neck.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-stock mean?
B-stock means this guitar is fully functional with minor cosmetic wear—in this case, visible on the neck side—but structural integrity and playability are excellent. The tonal and functional performance is identical to new condition.
Is this guitar good for fingerstyle and folk playing?
Yes. The 651mm scale, 43mm nut width, and 400mm radius fretboard are designed for fingerstyle and flatpicking approaches, and the warm midrange and responsive projection suit folk, country, and singer-songwriter styles.
What's included in the construction?
Solid Sitka spruce top, mahogany back and sides, mahogany neck with satin finish, rosewood fretboard with 20 frets, bone nut and saddle, tortoiseshell body binding, and open gear Grover tuning machines.
How does the neck feel during long playing sessions?
The satin-finished mahogany neck offers smooth hand movement without slickness, and the balanced neck profile—43mm at nut, 55mm at 14th fret, 21–22mm thickness—is designed for comfortable extended play and reduces hand fatigue.
How does this compare to other mid-tier acoustics?
The AW4000 sits alongside models like the Fender CD-60S and Yamaha FG800 with similar solid-top construction and warm tonal character; the satin mahogany neck and bone hardware give it a traditional feel at a competitive price point, especially at B-stock pricing.
