Ibanez AC340CE

Okoume beauty

Ready to explore a tone like no other? The okoume construction of this beautifully crafted gem bring out a real depth and warmth – perfect for making each note sound rich and distinctive. Your music will flow with balanced tones across the board, and a solid okoume top projects it with vigour and punch. This guitar boasts a sublimely smooth voicing, and will get everyone dancing with its unbeatable sound.

Built to be amplified

Take your sound to new heights. The AC340CE is equipped with a Fishman Sonicore pickup, which is mounted under the bridge and connected to the Ibanez AEQ-SP2 preamp system. The result? Glistening, clear, dynamic amplification that retains all those delicious acoustic qualities of mahogany and spruce. There is also a 2-band EQ for precise, easy sound sculpting, whilst dual outputs – a balanced XLR and 1/4″ jack – allow for effortless connection to an amp, mixing desk, or recording device.

Advantageous bridge pins

Sometimes, bridge pins can be a real pain. They get stuck in the bridge, snap, rattle when you’re playing, and can cause an all-round nuisance. Not Advantage bridge pins. These are much easier to take out and put in than regular pins, eliminating all the common problems you can run into. Their bulb ends make them easy to grip, whilst preventing them being pushed in too far (which would inevitably lead to you snapping them trying to get it out with pliers). A seriously underrated advantage.
