With its 27-inch baritone scale length, the Ibanez AE275BT acoustic-electric guitar speaks with a rich, bold voice. Especially if you're a recording singer/songwriter, a baritone is the perfect complement to a standard acoustic guitar when layering multiple parts. And premium appointments like a real bone nut and saddles, plus Ibanez Advantage bridge pins, set this guitar apart from most in this class. Players at Sweetwater especially appreciate the AE275BT's carefully rounded fretboard edges, which enhance the neck's smooth and fast feel. Complete with a custom electronics package for excellent plugged-in performance, the Ibanez AE275BT baritone acoustic-electric guitar is an outstanding performer.





Solid sitka spruce top for timeless tone





Sitka spruce has been a preferred top wood among luthiers for decades, thanks to its wide-ranging tonality. The Ibanez AE275BT acoustic-electric features a solid Sitka spruce top, giving this guitar impressive projection and detail. And another benefit of a solid wood top is how it will sound even better as the years go by ? the more you play it, the more the top "settles in" to its role as a soundboard, yielding more harmonic richness and depth as it ages.





Premium materials for better tone





In addition to high-quality tonewoods, the Ibanez AE275BT comes equipped with a real bone nut and saddles. Bone transmits the vibrations of your strings better than basic plastic, giving your tone better definition, detail, and sustain. And because your choice of bridge pins also informs your tone, the AE275BT features Ibanez Advantage bridge pins. They're designed to preserve your tone better than common plastic bridge pins, and the sonic difference is notable.





Comfort Grip neck with rounded fretboard edges





It doesn't matter how great a guitar sounds or looks if you don't enjoy the feel of its neck. While that's ultimately subjective, we think you'll be impressed with the feel of the AE275BT's Comfort Grip neck profile. Of special note are the rounded fretboard edges, which make this neck feel especially smooth and inviting. Whether you're grabbing full chords, or running lead lines around the fretboard, the Ibanez AE275BT will serve you well.
