Ibanez PF17ECE-LG

The Ibanez PF17ECE-LG is a Performance Series acoustic-electric guitar featuring a cutaway dreadnought body designed for strong projection, a full acoustic response and convenient access to the higher frets. Its cedar top provides a warm, responsive tonal character with a smooth midrange, while the sapele back and sides contribute clarity and balanced resonance. The dreadnought format makes the guitar particularly suitable for strumming, rhythm playing, fingerstyle work, songwriting, practice and live acoustic performance.

The PF17ECE-LG uses a mahogany neck with a 650 mm (25.6-inch) scale length, 42 mm nut width and 20-fret Purpleheart fretboard. Its 250 mm radius provides a comfortable playing surface, while the cutaway allows easier access to the upper register. For amplified use, the guitar is equipped with an Ibanez undersaddle pickup and AEQ-2T preamp with an onboard tuner. The preamp includes volume, bass and treble controls, giving players straightforward control over their amplified sound.

The LG version features a Natural Low Gloss/Satin finish across the top, back, sides and neck, giving the instrument a understated appearance while allowing the wood character to remain visible. It features a Purpleheart bridge, ivory body binding, walnut soundhole rosette and chrome die-cast tuners with half-moon knobs. Ibanez Advantage™ bridge pins securely hold the strings in place, while the guitar uses Ibanez IACS6C coated strings in .012–.053 gauge. The electronics operate from a 9V battery and provide a standard 1/4-inch output for connection to an amplifier or PA system.
