Ibanez PA230E NSL - natural satin top

Combining convenient onboard electronics—including a built-in tuner—with great tone and easy playability, the IBANEZ PA230E NSL asymmetrical Jumbo cutaway acoustic/electric guitar is ideal for players looking for performance and convenience.

Solid Cedar top, layered Okoume back & sides , African Mahogany/Pau Ferro neck, Macassar Ebony fretboard.

Developed for modern fingerstyle players, the asymmetric jumbo body features a low-end focused sound and tapping friendly shape

With several years spent on research and development, Ibanez ultimately developed the exciting, new X-M bracing design. The carefully designed scalloped X-bracing, features strategically positioned tone and finger braces, which transmit string vibration more efficiently through the bridge to the body, greatly enhancing the quality and projection of the sound. This modified X-M Bracing design creates a highly responsive sound with a wide dynamic range, but it also emphasizes a focused low-end, which perfectly complements modern fingerstyle playing.

Blending the Contact pickup with the Magnetic pickup provides more natural acoustic tone. This pickup combination enhances the depth of the sound and the tonal brightness. It especially excels for solo fingerstyle players or in a small acoustic ensemble.
