The Ibanez AAD51CE is an electro-acoustic guitar from the Advanced Acoustic series featuring a Grand Dreadnought body with an Advanced Access Cutaway, designed to deliver greater volume, depth, and presence than a conventional dreadnought, while providing comfortable access to higher registers. It combines a solid Sitka spruce top with sapele back and sides, offering a balanced sound with full bass, warm mids, and clear highs.
Its okoume neck with a Low Oval Grip profile ensures comfortable playability for chords and melodic lines alike. The A.I.R.port system allows the player to hear the instrument's natural sound more accurately, while the Ibanez T-bar pickup and AEQ-TP2 preamp with built-in tuner and 2-band EQ enable stage-ready sound shaping.

Our Opinion
The AAD51CE stands out as one of the most balanced options in the Advanced Acoustic series. The solid Sitka spruce top provides clarity and dynamic range, while the sapele adds body and warmth, making it well-suited for both accompaniment and detailed playing with a pick or fingers. It is also particularly well-equipped for live performances: the Advanced Access Cutaway offers easy access to the highest frets, and the combination of the AEQ-TP2 preamp with both Jack and XLR outputs allows for versatile connectivity. A highly complete electro-acoustic guitar for those seeking a versatile Grand Dreadnought with a solid top.
