Ibanez GA6CE-AM

The Ibanez GA6CE-AM is a full-size nylon-string classical acoustic-electric guitar featuring a Cutaway Classical body. It combines a Spruce top with Sapele back and sides to provide clear articulation, a warm midrange and balanced acoustic projection. The cutaway provides easier access to the upper frets, making the guitar suitable for classical playing, fingerstyle, accompaniment, practice, recording and amplified performances. (Ibanez)

The guitar features an Okoume neck with a Purpleheart fretboard and bridge, offering a comfortable playing feel and efficient transfer of string vibration. Its 650mm scale length, 52mm nut width, flat-radius fretboard and 11.6mm string spacing follow the traditional dimensions expected from a nylon-string classical guitar. The GA6CE has 19 frets and uses coated nylon strings, while the fan-braced construction supports the natural response of the classical body. (星野楽器 HOSHINO GAKKI CO., LTD.)

For amplified use, the GA6CE-AM is equipped with an Ibanez Undersaddle pickup and AEQ-2T preamp with an onboard tuner. The preamp provides Volume, Bass and Treble controls, while the built-in tuner can be operated without the guitar being connected to an amplifier. Gold Classical tuners, a Classical Mosaic Design rosette and the Amber High Gloss finish complete the instrument's traditional appearance. (Ibanez)
