Ibanez MSC550 Montage Acoustic-Electric Guitar

A complete sonic arsenal in one guitar: sparkling acoustic tones, electric sounds from clean and punchy to snarling and brash, plus effects and tuner. That’s right, all in one guitar. In 2008, Ibanez proudly presents the revolutionary Montage, offering 5 different sound options from full acoustic to straight electric and everything in between. Onboard gain, reverb, chorus, tuner and more—the Montage is both gorgeous and one of the most versatile and useful Ibanez guitars ever.

Groundbreaking, innovative electronics: 2 acoustic sounds, 2 electric sounds with mix option. Onboard reverb, chorus, distortion, phase reversal. Onboard dual notch filter and tuner. B-Band UST pickup (acoustic); AP-9 magnetic pickup (electric). Simple neck tilt mechanism for no-hassle action adjustment. Ibanez proprietary detachable neck with comfortable grip and shape.

Rebates

Jack-of-all-tones! The new Montage series from Ibanez lets you take one axe to the gig and still get all the sounds you need. A five-way switch gives access to acoustic and electric pickups, a blend between the two, and even a lead channel! Onboard reverb, chorus, and EQ let you tailor the tone, and the adjustable neck quickly sets the perfect action. All this, and a flame-maple top to match!
