Incorporating built-in electronics and key design enhancements inside and out, the AAD50CE offers gigging musicians and home recording artists a comfortable playing experience with big clear tone, plenty of projection, and expanded versatility over acoustic-only guitars.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeing 5% larger than a dreadnought, the grand dreadnought body style delivers increased volume and low-end power. It features a straight cutaway from the 18th fret, which ensures uninhibited access to the guitar’s upper register. Special X-M bracing allows the AAD50CE to be responsive while providing crisp trebles, warm mids, and bass that doesn’t get lost. The fresh bridge pin design makes the pins easier to remove and insert without compromising stability. Wood selection on the AAD50CE includes sapele for the back and sides, a solid sitka spruce top, and purpleheart for the fingerboard and bridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrand Dreadnought Body\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrough a rigorous R\u0026amp;D process spanning several years, Ibanez has reimagined the dreadnought from the ground up, pursuing the height of rich sound, robust lows, 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 a 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\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter spending years of trial and error, Ibanez realized the innovative X-M bracing to generate the optimal sound to stand out onstage. 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 midrange, yet provides a wide dynamic range that is highly responsive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdvanced Access Cutaway\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts deep straight cutaway (from the 18th fret) and shaved side enable great high fret access.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFunctional Tapered Headstock\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe newly designed headstock shape is the result of thorough research and investigation.
