Our verdict

A compact acoustic-electric with a piezo under the saddle, a sapele top and a rosewood fretboard. The seller description is unrelated text about headphones, so rely on the specs.

Overview

Plugging in is built into the Ibanez PN12E, an acoustic with a saddle piezo pickup and an output jack. Sapele forms the top, nyatoh the back, and a mahogany neck carries a rosewood fretboard in vintage mahogany sunburst.

The specs describe a plain, practical build with a piezo under the saddle and a standard output jack. Scale length and nut width are both given, though in metric units. The product description is unrelated, and no preamp, tuner or case is listed.

Who it's for

Guitarists who want a straightforward acoustic-electric for small gigs or home recording. Anyone who needs onboard EQ, a tuner or a documented case should look at other models.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Saddle piezo pickup
  • Quarter inch output jack
  • Scale length and nut width stated
  • Two year warranty
Cons
  • No preamp or tuner listed
  • Description text is unrelated
  • Included components entry is vague

Performance notes

A piezo mounted at the saddle senses string vibration and feeds the output jack, so the amp supplies the tone shaping. Sapele on top and nyatoh on the back set the unplugged voice. Alloy steel strings and the stated measurements govern feel under the fingers.
