Ibanez VC44-OPN

The Ibanez VC44-OPN is a six-string acoustic guitar from the V Series, featuring a Grand Concert body designed for comfortable handling and a balanced acoustic response. Its Meranti top, back, and sides produce a warm, balanced tone with clear projection, making it suitable for strumming, chord accompaniment, fingerstyle playing, practice, and songwriting. The Grand Concert body is more compact than a traditional Dreadnought, offering a comfortable playing experience while retaining a full acoustic character. (Ibanez)

The guitar features a V-profile Meranti neck paired with a Nandu Wood fretboard and 21 frets. Its 634 mm (25") scale length, 42 mm nut width, 250 mm fretboard radius, and 11 mm string spacing provide a comfortable and familiar steel-string playing setup. The Nandu Wood bridge works with the Ibanez Advantage™ bridge pins to provide secure string positioning and efficient transfer of string vibration to the body. (星野楽器 HOSHINO GAKKI CO., LTD.)

The VC44-OPN features an Open Pore Natural finish that preserves the natural appearance and tactile character of the wood. It is equipped with Chrome Covered tuning machines, white dot fretboard inlays, a black-and-white multi soundhole rosette, and a Nandu Wood bridge. The guitar has no onboard electronics, making it a straightforward acoustic instrument for unplugged playing and practice. (Ibanez)
