The Ibanez Artwood AW54CE acoustic-electric guitar hits all the right notes. Acoustically, the AW54CE delivers big dreadnought tone that's nicely balanced by the internal X bracing. The solid okume construction gives you a great-looking instrument with a big, balanced sound that's ideal whether you're strumming or fingerpicking. With a Ibanez T-bar under-saddle pickup and an Ibanez AEQ-TP2 preamp, you get natural-sounding amplification that's plug-n-play simple. You even get an onboard tuner. If you came for a great-sounding, smooth-playing acoustic-electric that's also a phenomenal value, we can highly recommend the Ibanez AW54CE.

Artwood: high-quality tonewoods and amazing value

The magic of Ibanez's Artwood series acoustic guitars comes from their combination of quality tonewoods and fine construction techniques. To make the Artwood AW54CE acoustic a great-sounding yet affordable guitar, Ibanez began by selecting the best materials for the money and then applied decades upon decades of guitar-crafting experience to them. When you pick up your AW54CE, you'll be amazed by how fine this affordable acoustic guitar really is.

Solid okume construction gives your guitar a rich sonic signature

With its strong fundamentals and ample sustain, okume is a bold choice for a big-bodied dreadnought. To help balance the naturally warm tone of okume, Ibanez employs X bracing on the AW54CE to give you wide-ranging tone that doesn't become too muddy or indistinct.

Tune up, plug in, and sound great with Ibanez electronics

Any gigging guitarist will tell you that Ibanez's in-house acoustic pickups and preamps are seriously impressive. The AW54CE comes equipped with a T-bar under-saddle pickup. It's powered by the Ibanez AEQ-TP2 preamp gives you bass, treble, and volume controls to dial in a great tone fast. Best of all, the built-in tuner makes it easy to keep your instrument sounding its best.
