The AEG50 from Ibanez features AEQ-TTS preamp w/Onboard Tuner that has only two control knobs, volume and shape. This at-a-glance tone control offers natural acoustic sound in the center position. It allows players to adjust the tone easily and enables them to go from low, fat and powerful tones to a bright and crisp sound while adjusting only one knob. A new easy-to-read onboard tuner with LCD is located on the preamp.
The instrument features a Laurel fretboard that provides a rich and warm tone. This matches the Laurel bridge that transfers string vibration directly to the body, delivering a natural and warm tone. A nyatoh neck provides a rich mid-low end. The Okoume back and sides generate a woody, warm tone when the guitar is played softly or finger-picked and provide punchy high-mids with a clear projection when strummed.
Ibanez Advantage bridge pins really are an advantage over old-fashioned pins. Advantage pins are easier to take out and easier to put in than standard pins. A special bulb-shaped end makes the pin easy to grip and prevents the pin from being pushed in too far. Best of all, with Advantage the pin and string stay put.
