Ibanez AEF30E Cutaway Acoustic Electric Guitar

The Ibanez AEF30E Acoustic Electric Guitar, along with the rest of the Ibanez AE series, continues to be one of the best selling guitars in the world. With the slim neck, high fidelity electronics, and flame maple top, it's easy to see why. This guitar was built for performance. A B-Band-Ibanez SQR pickup, Ibanez Shape Shifter EQ (with an onboard tuner!), and balanced XLR & 1/4-inch outputs provide a rich sound while you're on stage. Other features include an arched maple back, pearl block abalone inlays and a high gloss finish. The AEF30E makes a great compliment to any guitarists setup.

QUALITY:
The quality is top notch. The purple finish is really vivid, and does not compare to the pictures. No blemishes anywhere.

FEATURES:
The EQ is very good and accurate. The best feature is the phase button where you can shape the overall sound.Plus the XLR jack is great to plug direct or DI box. The only thing I wish Ibanez would have done is put a strap button on the neck heel.(I installed one after I got it)

EASE OF USE:

VALUE:
For the money, you just can't beat this guitar.

SOUND:
Most acoustic-electrics tend to sound a little thin. This one however does not, especially when you tweak the EQ. Also unplugged, it has a nice full sound which is also a rare thing with thinner bodies. I play it through a DI box s

Just recieved my AEF 30 from AMS and I asked them to send me a good one jokingly... must have worked - lol Anyway I am blown away by this acoustic. This is the second Ibanez I've ordered in the last year, the first being a Hollowbody Jazz and both come from Korea,... who cares if they make a great product. This AEF in Vintage Violin is flawless and beautiful. The slightly rounded back, which lacks any bracing, is ingenious in a way allowing more response from the slightly shallower than normal body. I found the curved back both visually attractive (it also is shaded as in front) but VERY comfortable. Tuners and the ratio work well and are nicely gold finished,... OH, and there is a top strap peg also in addition to the bottom peg both of which also are gold. The ivory and inlays are well done and show no flaws. Comes with D'addario EXP's which is nice and the action with these strings anyway is excellent right out of box. The frets are nicely finished and co
"I love purchasing from AMS. The Payment Plan is so refreshing for part time musicians like myself. I would never be able to afford such great equipment otherwise."
