This instrument from the AEWC series features a spruce top and a sapele body with a narrow frame, which evokes the dynamic feel of the electric guitar and makes the AEWC11 the perfect stage companion. For this purpose, a combination of a Fishman Sonicore pickup and an Ibanez AEQ-SP1 preamp are provided. This gives this compact acoustic guitar a powerful stage sound and, thanks to the easy-grip on-board EQ, allows sound adjustments in seconds. Other than that, a slim AEWC neck made of Nyatoh and a particularly wide cutaway for accessing the higher frets contribute to the comfortable handling of the Ibanez AEWC11.
