Ibanez V40LCE-OPN

The Ibanez V40LCE-OPN is a left-handed six-string acoustic-electric guitar featuring a Cutaway Dreadnought body designed to deliver a full acoustic sound with convenient access to the upper frets. Its Spruce top is paired with Meranti back and sides, providing clear tonal response with a warm and balanced character. The Dreadnought construction makes it suitable for strumming, chord accompaniment, songwriting, practice, and amplified performances.

The guitar features a V-profile Meranti neck with a Nandu Wood fretboard, 20 frets, a 650 mm (25.6") scale length, 42 mm nut width, and 250 mm fretboard radius. The 11 mm string spacing and .012–.053 string set provide a familiar steel-string playing feel. A Nandu Wood bridge and Ibanez Advantage™ bridge pins help maintain secure string positioning and efficient vibration transfer.

For amplified performance, the V40LCE-OPN 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. A 1/4" output jack provides connection to amplifiers, PA systems, and other compatible equipment, with the electronics powered by a single 9V battery.
