The Ibanez AE245 Solid Top Acoustic-Electric Guitar in Natural offers a refined balance of tone, playability, and stage-ready electronics. Designed with the AE body shape, this guitar achieves high comfort and resonance while delivering a well-balanced sound suitable for fingerstyle or strumming. Its solid mahogany top and all-mahogany back and sides create a warm, woody tone with soft response in fingerpicking and punchy high-mids for strumming, complemented by the Scalloped X Bracing and Tone Projection Back Bracing for enhanced sustain and dynamic versatility. Available now from Sky Music Australia, the AE245 is perfect for professional performance or home practice.
The baked mahogany neck features a satin finish for smooth playability, paired with a rosewood fingerboard and elegant wooden inlays for a sophisticated aesthetic. The AE245 includes a compact, onboard active preamp with a mute switch for stable, noise-resistant amplification, making it ideal for live performance. Its under-saddle T-bar pickup ensures each string is balanced and accurately projected through the Ibanez Custom Electronics system.
Every detail, from the bone nut and saddle to the Ibanez Advantage bridge pins, D’Addario EXP strings, and chrome die-cast tuners, is designed to maximize acoustic tone, stability, and comfort. The AE245 is a versatile acoustic-electric guitar built to handle soloing, ensemble playing, and amplified stage performances with clarity and character.
