Ibanez AAM780E-NT Advanced Auditorium

Ibanez AAM780E-NT – Western Guitar with Pickup and Case (Advanced Auditorium)

The Ibanez AAM780E-NT is an all-solid western guitar with built-in pickup and hardcase, part of the Advanced Auditorium series. It is designed for high playability and a balanced, clear tone suitable for both studio and stage.

Body and Construction

The guitar features a solid Sitka spruce top with solid rosewood back and sides, providing rich tone and long sustain. The specially designed X-M bracing ensures strong projection and even tonal response. The body shape is suitable for both solo playing and ensemble settings.

A.I.R. Port – Acoustic Information Response

The AAM780E includes A.I.R. Port, an additional side sound port aimed at the player. Angled wooden blocks direct the sound efficiently out of the port, providing clear monitoring and natural tone directly from the instrument.

Electronics and Features

Equipped with a compact Ibanez Custom Electronics preamp, including undersaddle and contact pickups, the guitar has separate volume and tone controls for each pickup. This preserves the acoustic tone while providing stable, interference-free amplified sound.

Neck and Playability

The Thermo-Aged African mahogany neck has a Low Oval profile with rounded edges on the Macassar ebony fingerboard. The scalloped bridge and bone components contribute to stable tone transfer and reliable tuning.
