Overview

Reimagine your acoustic experience with the Advanced Auditorium.

The Ibanez AAM340CE Advanced Auditorium acoustic-electric guitar represents a bold step forward in acoustic guitar design. This innovative instrument delivers a rich, bright tone with an exceptionally wide dynamic range, thanks to its reimagined body shape, carefully crafted bracing pattern, and high-quality materials. Whether you're a seasoned performer or a passionate songwriter, the AAM340CE offers a truly unique and inspiring playing experience.

Advanced Auditorium Body for Enhanced Resonance and Balance

The AAM340CE features a reimagined auditorium body shape that delivers a richer low-midrange and improved balance compared to traditional auditorium guitars. This innovative design, developed through extensive research and prototyping, features a slightly wider waist that's positioned closer to the neck, resulting in a more resonant and balanced tone. The solid African mahogany top, back, and sides further enhance the guitar's warmth and projection, creating a versatile instrument that's suitable for a wide range of playing styles.

 

X-M Bracing for Optimal Tone and Response

Ibanez developed its proprietary X-M bracing specifically for the Advanced Auditorium body shape, ensuring optimal tone and response. This carefully designed scalloped bracing pattern efficiently transmits string vibration from the bridge to the body, resulting in a wide dynamic range and excellent responsiveness. The X-M bracing also contributes to the AAM340CE's balanced tonal character, with clear trebles and a warm, focused midrange.

 

Thermo Aged African Mahogany Neck and Rosewood Fretboard for Superior Playability

The AAM340CE features a Thermo Aged African mahogany neck with a comfortable low oval grip that facilitates effortless chord strumming. The rounded fretboard edges provide a smooth and comfortable playing experience, while the Thermo Aged process enhances the neck's stability, resonance, and overall tonal character. The rosewood fretboard adds a touch of warmth and clarity to the guitar's sound, complementing the rich tones of the mahogany body.

Ibanez Custom Electronics and T-bar Undersaddle Pickup for a Natural Amplified Sound

The AAM340CE is equipped with an Ibanez T-bar undersaddle pickup that accurately captures the guitar's full acoustic tone and translates it faithfully to your amplification system. The Ibanez Custom Electronics preamp features onboard treble and bass controls, allowing you to shape your amplified sound with precision. Whether you're performing on stage or recording in the studio, the AAM340CE delivers a natural and expressive amplified tone.

Innovative Features for Enhanced Performance and Comfort

The AAM340CE incorporates several innovative features that enhance its performance and comfort. The A.I.R. port, with its unique internal structure, reflects sound waves and guides them to exit from a precisely positioned soundhole, improving monitoring and enhancing the overall playing experience. The Advanced Access cutaway provides effortless access to the upper frets, expanding your musical possibilities. The Ibanez Advantage bridge pins offer easy installation and removal, while the scalloped rosewood bridge improves vibration efficiency and allows for greater flexibility in adjusting the action.
