Beautiful Grand Concert Fingerstyle Acoustic from Ibanez
The ACFS300CE from Ibanez is yet another impeccably designed acoustic-electric from their popular Artwood Fingerstyle Collection. This bold Grand Concert acoustic features a solid Engelmann spruce top with okoume back and sides — a tonewood pairing that delivers full, rounded tone that is steeped in rich low end along with crisp highs. In addition, a 5-piece mahogany and pau ferro neck with Macassar ebony fingerboard offer stellar response and playability for a variety of styles including robust flatpicking and finger-style. And when you are ready to plug in, an Ibanez T-Bar undersaddle and Block Contact pickup with Ibanez DP1 preamp kicks out beautifully articulate amplified tone.

Incredible pickup options
The Block Contact pickup on the ACFS300CE is mounted on the neck block, making it highly resistant to feedback. This placement also means that the percussive sound from the body to the neck is captured evenly. In addition, this placement also enhances the brightness and air of the Piezo-style sound by capturing the acoustic tones that resonate naturally in the body. Further, the T-bar under-saddle pickup and its placement capture palm hits and bass drum-like tones — great for experimental, expressive styles of play. And with dual outputs, you can blend these pickups for a wonderful array of tonal expressions — a feature guitarists here at Sweetwater really love.
Fine appointments for enhanced tone
The 5-piece mahogany and pau ferro neck and ebony fingerboard are complemented by a deep, smooth cutaway that lets you access those higher notes. An ebony bridge, unbleached oil-impregnated bone and nut saddle, and scalloped X-bracing are added fine appointments that enhance the tone and resonance of this fine acoustic.
