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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eX-M Bracing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter spending years of trial-and-error, Ibanez realized the 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 provides a wide dynamic range and high response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdvanced Access Cutaway\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts deep straight cutaway (from 18th fret) and shaved side enable amazing high fret access.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLow Oval Grip Thermo Aged™ Nyatoh neck with Rounded Fretboard Edge\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFunctional Tapered Headstock\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIbanez AP11 Magnetic pickup\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContact pickup\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLuminescent Side Dot Inlays\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLuminescent side dot inlays line the side of the neck for more easily navigating the fretboard in low light environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOkoume back and sides\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIbanez Advantage™ bridge pin\u003c\/strong\u003es\u003cbr\u003eThese 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 also prevents the pin from being pushed in too far. Best of all, with Advantage™ the pin and string stay put.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBody Shape : Grand Dreadnought with Advanced Access Cutaway body Bracing : X-M Bracing Top : Solid Sitka Spruce top Back \u0026amp; Sides : Okoume back \u0026amp; Okoume sides Neck : Low Oval Grip with Rounded Fretboard EdgeThermo Aged™ Nyatoh neck Fretboard : Macassar Ebony fretboard Bridge : Macassar Ebony scalloped bridge Top Board purfling : Wooden purfling Inlay : Maple Dot inlay Soundhole Rosette : Wooden rosette with Soundhole binding rosette Tuning Machine : Chrome Die-cast tuners (18:1 gear ratio) Nut Material : Bone Number of Frets : 20 Saddle Material : Compensated Bone saddle Bridge Pins : Ibanez Advantage™ Strings : D’Addario® XTAPB1253 String Gauge L .012\/.016\/.024\/.032\/.042\/.053 String Space : 11mm Factory Tuning : 1E,2B,3G,4D,5A,6E Pickup : Ibanez AP11 Magnetic \u0026amp; Contact Preamp : Ibanez Custom Electronics w\/ Magnetic Pickup Volume and Contact Pickup Volume Output Jack : Dual Outputs (Mono Out \/ Stereo Out)   \u003cstrong\u003eNeck Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e Scale : 651mm Width : 43mm at NUT Width : 55mm at 14F Thickness : 21mm at 1F Thickness : 22mm at 7F Radius : 400mmR   \u003cstrong\u003eBody Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e Length : 20 3\/8″ Width : 16 1\/4″ Max Depth : 5 “\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sound Select ZA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46732409929894,"sku":"AAD300CE-LGS","price":10795.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0691\/1646\/1222\/files\/Ibanez_AAD300CE-LGS.png?v=1764694637","url":"https:\/\/soundselect.co.za\/fr\/products\/ibanez-aad300ce-lgs","provider":"Sound Select ZA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
