Overview

Ibanez finishes this all-meranti Grand Concert acoustic-electric in a blacked-out, open-pore polyurethane coat. Onboard Ibanez appointments support handling and intonation, and the electronics system is aimed at stage-ready tone.

The all-meranti recipe combines strength, tone and comfort, and the finish gives a sightly, blacked-out look. The guitar is described as travel-friendly. The limitation is that the listing does not state the scale length, nut width or any included case.

Who it's for

Beginners and experienced acoustic players who like a plain, dark look and a compact body. Players who prefer a spruce top, or who need exact measurements, should look elsewhere.
