Ibanez EWP14 Exotic Wood Piccolo Acoustic Guitar Features
- Piccolo Cutaway Style EW Body
- Ovangkol Top
- Ovangkol Back and Sides
- Abalone Rosette
- 17” scale
- Open Pore Natural (OPN) Finish
- Tuning in the Key of A
Similar in scale to a Baritone ukulele (17”), the EWP14 sports an EW style cutaway body. An open pore Natural finish allows the body to resonate more freely for improved tone and projection. Other features include an Abalone rosette, purpleheart fretboard and bridge plus chrome die-cast tuners.
To optimize string tension, intonation, and tone, the EWP14 is tuned in the key of A (A, D, G, C, E, A), up a fourth from standard tuning.
Smaller scale instruments have increased in popularity over the past few years, because not only do students seem to be starting younger than ever, but also the easy-to-transport guitar has become recognized as an excellent companion for the weary traveler. From the on-the-go businessperson who needs a guitar that can fit in a plane’s overhead compartment, to the happy wanderer just looking to animate his sojourn with a song, the compact travel guitar can be an uplifting addition to any expedition.
