Ibanez AAM780E-NT Advanced Acoustic Series A.I.R.portThrough intensive research and development, we have designed the A.I.R.port with a unique internal structure that reflects sound waves and guides them to exit from a precisely positioned sound hole. As a result, players can monitor what they are playing more clearly, which enhances the overall playing experience. Advanced Auditorium BodyWith the concept of Advanced Acoustics - "Reimagining Acoustic Experience" in mind, we carefully designed the new body shape of the Advanced Auditorium, drawing on our research into the general Auditorium body shape. After many rounds of prototyping, the Advanced Auditorium body has a slightly wider waist, which has been moved slightly towards the neck. Thanks to these changes, this shape delivers a richer low mids and better body to weight balance, which conventional Auditorium bodies tend to lack. X-M bracing for AAM seriesAfter more than two years of trial and error, research, and prototyping, Ibanez developed its proprietary X-M bracing specifically for Advanced Auditorium guitar bodies to produce the ultimate sound for the stage and studio. The carefully designed scalloped X-M bracing, tone braces, and finger braces efficiently transmit string vibration from the bridge to the body. This bracing provides a wide dynamic range and excellent response. The mids are slightly scooped for better tonal balance, and the treble has the clarity of steel strings while retaining the warmth of nylon strings. Macassar Ebony Scalloped bridgeThe lightweight, scalloped bridge improves vibration efficiency for better resonance, as well as providing more flexibility in adjusting the action than usual bridge. Macassar Ebony fretboardMacassar Ebony produces tight lows and mid range along with strong attack in the highs and quick response with rich sustain. Low Oval Grip Thermo Aged African Mahogany neck with Rounded Fretboard EdgeThe Low Oval neck grip facilitates easy chord strumming and the Rounded Fretboard Edges deliver superior playability. Thermo Aging, a special drying process, makes the neck light and hard and provides excellent stability and enhanced resonance. Solid Sitka Spruce topSolid Sitka Spruce top provides an enormous frequency range that offers wave after wave of shimmering highs along with tight mids and a full-bodied low end. Solid Rosewood back and sidesSolid Rosewood back and sides provide a well-balanced solid tone with a focused mid range. Ibanez Custom Electronics w/Undersaddle Pickup Volume, Undersaddle Pickup Tone and Contact Pickup VolumeIbanez Custom Electronics amplify the signal of each pickup naturally throughout the entire tonal spectrum. Blending the sound of the two pickups allows the player to create a variety of tones to suit their particular playing style or genre of music. Ebony bridge pinsEbony wood bridge pins improve vibration efficiency for better resonance. Gotoh machine headsGotoh machine heads provide superior precision, a smooth feel, and excellent tuning accuracy.
