Ibanez AUC10EOPN Concert Acoustic Electric Ukulele – Open Pore Natural Ibanez

The AU series features very unique construction. Rather than being built with a separate top, sides, and back like most ukuleles, the body of the AU starts as a solid block of wood and is routed out, so that the back and sides are a single piece of wood. A top is then added to complete the body. This construction method gives these instruments a unique sound and brilliant playability. They also utilize distinctive features such as a Stereo Sound Port, Elevated Comfort Armrest, and Edgeless Comfort Heel.

FEATURES

• Okoume neck – The Okoume neck provides greater playing comfort.

• Purpleheart fretboard – The Purpleheart fretboard emphasizes the beauty and the rich tonal character of this instrument.

• Solid Paulownia back and sides – The light weight Paulownia back and sides offer well-balanced tone with superior note definition and added brightness.

• Purpleheart double hole bridge – The double hole bridge makes string changes super easy as there is no need to bend the strings or tie a knot at the end. This also helps maintain the correct string tension, which enhances tuning stability.

• Stereo Sound Port System – The dual sound holes on the waist provide a unique surround sound effect, helping players more effectively monitor their sound.

• Elevated Comfort Armrest – This Elevated Comfort Armrest can prevent your arm from touching the body top to provide richer sound and natural sustain while providing extreme playing comfort.

• Beveled Cutaway – The Beveled Cutaway offers exceptional high fret access.

• Edgeless Comfort Heel – The Edgeless Comfort Heel is smoothly rounded toward the cutaway, allowing for easy playing in any position.

• Spruce top – Spruce remains the most popular wood for acoustic guitar tops, mainly due to its pristine tonal clarity.

• Ibanez AEQ-2U preamp w/Onboard tuner – The AEQ-2U preamp provides the extra punch of on-board EQ and a convenient, easy-to-read digital tuner.
