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

Better tone than I had imagined ...

Love the tone of this guitar! I had searched for reviews on this specific acoustic prior to purchase and found them to be complimentary of the tone, despite being a smaller guitar. It was even better than I had imagined. For the price, it's a steal, in my opinion. To Ibanez: my only issue is the lack of a pick guard. Better players might not need one, but, alas, I'm a bit "picky" (pun intended).
Rated 5/5

Another Ibanez Jewel

This is my third Ibanez acoustic, two purchased at Sweetwater and one local. I have an AW54CE and an AW50jr with the new arrival the AEG70. Like their siblings, well made, great looking wood with perfect finish, and very playable. Obviously, why I have three. Just a very nice guitar for the money spent. I will not bore you with three paragraphs of accolades, enough to say that this guitar should not disappoint. Oh, and as always, I want to thank Will Crisp and the Sweetwater folks for their always exceptional customer care and service. I will be back.

Incredible for the price!

Beautiful, great playing guitar with an awesome neck, beautiful finish, and sounds great acoustically or plugged in. I bought this to use as my "campfire guitar" and was very surprised at what a great guitar it turned out to be. The only negative is that the frets were leveled but not re-crowned or polished, and the fret ends needed to be dressed. I build guitars and have the tools so it was a quick job for me, and I'm sure Sweetwater or anywhere that has a good guitar tech could have done this very easily. Again, this is an unbelievable instrument for the price and would recommend to anyone that needs a good "campfire guitar".
