Ready to Perform with Built-in Electronics

Looking for a great value on an acoustic-electric guitar? Look no further than the Ibanez AEG70 acoustic-electric guitar. It's ready to plug in and play right out of the box, thanks to its built-in undersaddle pickup and preamp system. There's even a built-in tuner so you can always sound your best. And because it comes strung with Ibanez coated guitar strings — which sound "new" longer than un-coated strings — you'll enjoy great tone for much longer before you'll ever need to re-string. Complete with a satin-finished neck for a smooth, fast playing feel, it's hard to beat the value in the Ibanez AEG70 acoustic-electric guitar.

AEG body shape feels great and keeps feedback at bay

The shallow body design of the Ibanez AEG70 is not only comfortable to play, but it also helps keep feedback at bay when plugged into a sound system. The undersized body eliminates the boominess you get from larger-bodied acoustics, making it ideal for live performance as well as recording. And its undersized design means it's lighter, making it a perfect "campfire" guitar that travels easily.

Ibanez AEG70 Acoustic-electric Guitar Features:

  • Slender, midsize guitar, perfect for a wide variety of playing techniques and musical styles
  • Sapele back and sides deliver a full and deeply resonant voice
  • Satin-finished neck feels fast and smooth
  • Ready to plug in and perform, with onboard Ibanez T-bar II undersaddle pickup and AEQ-TTS preamp
  • Preamp system includes an onboard tuner for convenience

Incredible Customer Service During Purchase

First, this is a guitar for my daughter as she wanted to learn to play an instrument as she is the lead singer of a band. The guitar is solid and an excellent beginner to intermediate guitar. She can plug into the sound system given it's electric.

Second and needs to be mentioned, I went to another large guitar shop initially and asked for help three times on the same guitar. They never once came to help at all. Needless to say, I did not purchase anything from this guitar center. I went to sweetwater and not only did they have all the colors, but they also called me the same day, and emailed multiple times. The guitar, new gig bag, picks, etc... were delivered flawlessly!

I can't say enough about their customer service!!! This is now my main shop!

Thanks, sweetwater!

Excellent first acoustic

I bought this guitar because it was to be my first acoustic. After playing it for a few months, it might be the only one I need for a while. Sounds awesome, plays smooth, no adjustments needed. Just changed out factory strings with some Elixirs and good to go. It does stay in tune very well even with alternate tunings. Super happy with it!

Surprisingly Good Guitar

I was skeptical, I have tried many other Acoustic Electrics at this price point and been disappointed. First off the variety of woods, construction and finish are up there with much higher priced guitars. The electronics and pickup sounds good, the built in tuner is actually better than some of the high end AC guitars I own. Neck is straight and feels great, stays in tune amazingly well. With a little fret polishing and a fresh set of strings, you are good to go.
