With the AE315FMH-OPS, Ibanez offers an all-massive Western guitar that cuts a fine figure both in terms of sound and appearance. Accordingly, this AE comes with an okoume body for a warm sound with distinctive mids. The compact AE body allows a lot of freedom of movement when used on stage, while a compensated bridge insert made of bone provides optimum resonance transmission and a flat string position.
In addition, a rosette made of abalone and a "Wooden Vine" fingerboard inlay were implemented for the optical appeal. The cutaway allows easy playing in the higher frets, while the chrome die-cast tuners keep the tuning clean.
For use on stage, the Ibanez Custom Electronics Preamp is available, which transmits acoustic sound with natural balance to the amplifier.
