Built for projection, balance and comfort.
The Ibanez AE140 acoustic-electric guitar represents a new chapter in acoustic guitar tradition with its blend of comfort, projection and versatile amplified performance. Designed for today's evolving musical landscape, the AE140 allows you to carve out your signature sound with its impressive tonal range and amplified tone-shaping capabilities.
Shape Your Sound With X-M Bracing
Ibanez's innovative X-M bracing pattern transmits string vibration with clarity, giving the AE140 a crisp treble, warm midrange and full low end. The carefully designed scalloped braces provide excellent resonance across a wide dynamic range, letting you express yourself with any playing style.
Change Strings Quickly With Ibanez Advantage Bridge Pins
The AE140's bridge is equipped with Ibanez Advantage pins for fast and frustration-free string changes. Their special bulb shape offers an easy grip, while preventing the pins from being inserted too far. Best of all, the string stays securely in tune once installed.
Sculpt Your Tone With the Onboard Preamp
An Ibanez AEQ-TP2 preamp gives you precise control over your amplified tone with its intuitive EQ shaping and onboard tuner. Located on the upper bout, it provides extra punch and lets you dial in the perfect sound for any venue via its two-band EQ.
Experience Buttery Playability
The AE140's Comfort Grip nyatoh neck and laurel fingerboard offer incredible smoothness and comfort. The solid okoume top produces a balanced tone with warm mids and bright highs. Okoume back and sides provide a woody resonance when played softly and punchy projection when strummed. Combined, they make the AE140 a joy to play for hours.
Hear Your Natural Tone Amplified
With its Ibanez T-bar undersaddle pickup and lightweight scalloped bridge, the AE140 accurately captures your acoustic tone and resonance when plugged in. Its contemporary body shape provides ideal projection and playing balance whether on stage or in the studio.
