Ibanez VC40WSCE-OPB

The Ibanez VC40WSCE-OPB is a six-string acoustic-electric guitar from the V Series, featuring a Cutaway Grand Concert body designed for comfortable handling, balanced projection, and easy access to the upper frets. Its White Siris top, back, and sides provide a warm, natural acoustic character, while the Grand Concert body offers a more compact feel than a traditional Dreadnought. The instrument is well suited to strumming, chord accompaniment, fingerstyle playing, songwriting, practice, and live performance. (Ibanez)

The guitar features a V-profile Meranti neck with a Nandu Wood fretboard, 21 frets, a 634 mm (25") scale length, 42 mm nut width, and 250 mm fretboard radius. The 11 mm string spacing and .012–.053 string set provide a conventional steel-string playing feel, while the Nandu Wood bridge and Ibanez Advantage™ bridge pins provide secure string positioning and efficient transfer of string vibration. (Ibanez)

For amplified performance, the VC40WSCE-OPB 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. The instrument is finished in Open Pore Brown and features Chrome Covered tuning machines, white dot inlays, and a water-decal soundhole rosette. (Ibanez)
