This Advanced Acoustic guitar pushes boundaries, promising an exciting new experience.

Ibanez AAM50 Advanced Auditorium Acoustic Guitar Body

Advanced Auditorium Body

After extensive research into general Auditorium body shapes, Ibanez carefully designed the AAM50's Advanced Auditorium body. Through multiple prototypes, this new shape was optimized with a slightly wider waist moved closer to the neck. The expertly crafted Advanced Auditorium body of the AAM50, comprised of a solid Sitka spruce top and sapele back and sides, delivers a full, robust tone. Another forward-thinking feature on the AAM50 is Ibanez's carefully designed scalloped X-bracing, which produces clear treble tones and trimmed, warm mids, while still allowing an impressively wide dynamic range and quick response.

Ibanez AAM50 Advanced Auditorium Acoustic Guitar A.I.R.port

A.I.R.port Player-Facing Soundhole

Ibanez developed the A.I.R.port with an ingeniously designed internal structure that reflects sound waves, guiding them to exit through a precisely positioned sound hole. This lets you monitor your playing more clearly, enhancing the overall experience. The A.I.R.port lets you—the player—in on all the irresistible sonic charm the AAM50 projects.

Ibanez AAM50 Advanced Auditorium Acoustic Guitar Headstock and Neck

Tapered Headstock and Low Oval Neck

The AAM50 has a tapered headstock that provides straight string alignment and tuning stability, while mitigating neck twist. Its smooth Low Oval neck grip that lets your hand glide easily up and down the neck during chord changes. This ergonomically designed okume neck profile facilitates quick, comfortable transitions between chord voicings, and features a gorgeous purpleheart fingerboard. Whether you're strumming open chords or intricate jazz shapes, this neck grip keeps your fretting hand relaxed.

Ibanez AAM50 Advanced Auditorium Acoustic Guitar Bridge

Thoughtfully Designed Bridge

The AAM50's purpleheart bridge lends even more resonance to your guitar. Thanks to Ibanez's clever Advantage bridge pins, changing strings on the AAM50 is frustration-free. A bulbous end provides an easy grip so pins slide in and out of the bridge smoothly. The pins also seat firmly in the bridge to maintain proper string height and intonation over time. With its intuitive bridge design, you can swap out strings confidently and quickly.

From its cutting-edge body design to its ergonomic neck shape, the AAM50 Advanced Auditorium acoustic guitar provides an unforgettable playing experience. Its robust tone and buttery playability will appeal to acoustic guitarists of all styles and skill levels. Stop by your local Guitar Center and test drive this thoughtfully crafted Ibanez.
