About this listing
Grand Dreadnought BodyThrough a rigorous R&D process spanning several years, Ibanez has reimagined the Dreadnought from the ground up, pursuing the height of rich sound, robust low end, and rich tone. This brand new body shape is called the Grand Dreadnought. Proportionally, the Grand Dreadnought body is 5% larger than a standard dreadnought, allowing for more volume, richer tone, and more powerful low end response. It's also extremely comfortable to play thanks to the extensive consideration given to its ergonomics.X-M BracingSpending a few years with trial and error, Ibanez finally reached to out-of-the-box X-M Bracing to generate the ultimate sound standing out on the stage. The carefully designed scalloped X-bracing, the allocation of tone braces and finger braces transmit the string vibration efficiently through the bridge to the body. The X-M Bracing creates the clear bottom and crispy treble sound with trimmed warm mid-range, yet providing wide dynamic range and highly response.Advanced Access CutawayIts deep straight cutaway (from 18th fret) and shaved side enable amazing high fret access.Low Oval Grip Thermo Aged Nyatoh neck with Rounded Fretboard EdgeThe Low Oval neck grip is designed for easy chord strumming and the Rounded Fretboard Edges provides superior playability. Thermo Aged, a special drying process, makes the neck light and hard and provides stability and better resonance.Functional Tapered HeadstockThe newly designed headstock shape is the result of thorough research and investigation. Its tapered shape provides lighter weight, as well as a straight string alignment which enhances tuning stability and reduces any neck twisting effect.Ibanez AP11 Magnetic PickupThe AP11 pickup is small, lightweight and positioned so it won't inhibit the natural vibrations of the top wood. The pickup generates a highly responsive sound with minimal feedback and delivers a lively response throughout the entire frequency range. The sound is transparent and reflects the guitar's natural acoustic tone while preserving presence and mid-range. The AP11 also works well with effects such as reverb, chorus and many others.Contact PickupIt consists of three transducers facilitating organic individual note clarity and naturally reproduces percussive body tapping techniques. This pickup also adds an airy depth of tone and brightness to the amplified sound.FeaturesBody Shape : Grand Dreadnought With Advanced Access Cutaway BodyBracing : Standard X-M BracingTop : Solid Sitka Spruce TopBack & Sides : Okoume Back & Okoume SidesNeck : Low Oval Grip With Rounded Fretboard Edgethermo Aged Nyatoh NeckFretboard : Macassar Ebony FretboardBridge : Macassar Ebony Scalloped BridgeTop Board Purfling : Wooden PurflingInlay : Maple Dot InlaySoundhole Rosette : Wooden Rosette With Soundhole BindingTuning Machine : Chrome Die-Cast Tuners(1:18 Gear Ratio)Nut Material : BoneNumber Of Frets : 20Saddle Material : Compensated BoneBridge Pins : Ibanez AdvantageStrings : D'Addario XTAPB1253String Gauge : .012/.016/.024/.032/.042/.053String Space : 11mmFactory Tuning : 1E,2B,3G,4D,5A,6EPickup : Ibanez AP11 Magnetic Pickup And Contact PickupPreamp : Ibanez Custom Electronics W/ Magnetic Pickup Volume And Contact Pickup VolumeOutput Jack : Dual Outputs (Mono Out / Stereo Out)Neck DimensionsScale : : 651mmA : Width : 43mm At NUTB : Width : 55mm At 14FC : Thickness : 21mm At 1FD : Thickness : 22mm At 7FRadius : : 400mmrBody DimensionsA : Length : 20 3/8"B : Width : 16 1/4"C : Max Depth : 5"
