AEG550 Bocote Acoustic-Electric Guitar

The Ibanez AEG550 bocote acoustic-electric guitar delivers powerful and balanced sound, unplugged or through an amp. It blends comfortable playability, classic finishes and intuitive electronics to create a quality, versatile workhorse. The AEG550 features a single-cutaway body with a spruce top for pristine tonal clarity, and bocote back and sides for eye-catching visuals and full, warm sound. It has a nyatoh neck with a Comfort Grip contour for smooth playability, topped with an ebony fingerboard for rich sustain, tight lows and strong attack in the high end.

The AEG550 has an Ibanez T-bar II undersaddle pickup to reduce noise and provide a wide range of natural, piezo-style sound. The AEQ-TTS preamp offers Volume and Shape controls, to quickly adjust the tone from low and powerful to bright and crisp. It also includes an easy-to-read onboard tuner with LCD display. Additional appointments include an ebony bridge for natural, warm tone, and Advantage bridge pins, with a special bulb-shaped end that allows for an easier grip and prevents the pins from being pushed in too far.
