Solid AE


The Ibanez AE came a long way from being a budget cutaway acoustic electric (hence the name) to its latest iteration seen here - AE410 (new for June 2021). It's still the likeable  AE that we know but this version sees a full solid construction; solid sitka spruce top + solid mahogany back / sides. To many of us, Ibanez would be the last name we would go to for a great acoustic reference. The Martin / Taylor / Takamine models we have here in the stores are easy pickings due to their brand name reputation when it comes to this kind of guitar. The odd campers would stray into Ibanez territory to realize how far the manufacturer have come when it comes to acoustics. Anyway, enjoy this cover of Kashmir by acoustic extraordinaire, Marcin Patrzalek with his AE:
