Ibanez AAM54-OPN Advanced Auditorium Acoustic Guitar - Open Pore Natural
Product Description
Whether you’re a curious beginner, an advancing intermediate, or a down-sizing professional, the Advanced Acoustic Auditorium series from Ibanez provides the smooth playability and stellar tone that all guitarists covet. This acoustic-electric model comes outfitted with an impressively resonant body of 100% sapele, backed by an okoume neck and a well-sustaining purpleheart fingerboard. Its Advanced Acoustic Auditorium series affiliation also promises players a smattering of deluxe features, including an Acoustic Information Response (A.I.R.) sound port, a comfortable low-oval neck profile, and chrome-plated 18:1 die-cast tuning machines for absolutely superb intonation. From burgeoning songwriters to true spotlight stealers.
A.I.R.port
One of the standout features of the AAM50-OPN is the A.I.R.port. Through intensive research and development, Ibanez has designed the A.I.R.port with a unique internal structure that reflects sound waves and guides them to exit from a precisely positioned sound hole. As a result, players can monitor what they are playing more clearly, enhancing the overall playing experience.
Advanced Auditorium Body
The AAM50-OPN features an Advanced Auditorium body. With the concept of “Reimagining Acoustic Experience” in mind, Ibanez carefully designed this new body shape, drawing on research into the general Auditorium body shape. After many rounds of prototyping, the Advanced Auditorium body has a slightly wider waist, which has been moved slightly towards the neck. Thanks to these changes, this shape delivers richer low mids and better body to weight balance, which conventional Auditorium bodies tend to lack.
X-M bracing for AAM series
Finally, the AAM50-OPN features Ibanez’s proprietary X-M bracing, developed specifically for Advanced Auditorium guitar bodies to produce the ultimate sound for the stage and studio. The carefully designed scalloped X-M bracing, tone braces, and finger braces efficiently transmit string vibration from the bridge to the body. This bracing provides a wide dynamic range and excellent response. The mids are slightly scooped for better tonal balance, and the treble has the clarity of steel strings while retaining the warmth of nylon strings.
