The AEB acoustic bass series delivers real, punchy low end, amplified or not. As an unplugged acoustic bass, these mahogany body/spruce top instruments have the quality woods and construction to create a warm-sounding bottom that can be felt as well as heard. When amplified, these basses utilize Fishman(R) Sonicore Pickups and Ibanez AEQ-SST Shape Shifter Preamps to pump the tones up and offer the thump you need at whatever volume. Learn More...

"Must have if your looking for a acoustic bass!"

Feature:
The guitar comes with DA acoustic bass strings which are wonderful. The fishman pickup adds spark to the guitar.

Quality:
I found a couple very un-noticable blemishes on the guitar. But they are very easy to look over, you have to search for them. I'm picky..hehe

Value:
Oh yeah, it's well worth the selling price, plays well, sounds great!

Desirability:
I've got the black finish, looks sweet! Very attractive..

Sound:
The sound is quite nice. Has a very good tone to it. sounds extravagant through a amp. Must hear to believe

Support:
I dont know how well Ibanez is to reach or how their customer support is. I've heard they were good, so that's why i'm giving a 5 for a 50/50 shot.

Overall:
This product will keep me satisfied for many years to come.

"Ibanez Acoustic."

Feature:
It did come with a nice little tool kit for the bass. Which I haven't used. The string are nice too.

Quality:
They guitar is made well and is beautiful in the color black, which I own. I did however noticed a noise when I was playing, it sounded like a pick.. I shook it around to get it out, but it was a piece of wood that looked like it belonged somewhere. No clue on why there was a random piece of wood in the body but... nothing is broke... I think.

Value:
It is pretty cheap. And damn good for the price.

Desirability:
It looks great and sounds good.... notice the vocabulary.

Sound:
The sound is ok. It does sound good coming out of an amp, but it does feedback rather easily. I think this guitar was designed for a bass player who uses a pick rather than fingers. I use my fingers and it really doesn't sound AS good unless you use a pick, but the sound is good all-around none the less.

Support:
I haven't tried to get support, I haven't had any (real) problems with my acoustic.

Overall:
It is the first acoustic bass I have ever bought. It's fun to play. I think it will last a long time.

About This Product!
Description
This spruce top acoustic bass has a punchy acoustic sound and an incredible "plugged-in" acoustic/electric sound thanks to its Fishman Sonicore pickup and AEQ-SS Shape Shifter EQ. This EQ lets you spend the bare minimum time tweaking controls and the maximum time playing! Specifically designed to work with the Fishman Sonicore, the 3-band AEQ-SS features a tone shaper - a very powerful, loudness-type control, a phase reverse switch and a huge amount of headroom so you get more volume before distortion. Other features include an easy-access battery compartment, and die-cast tuning machines.
