Fishman pickup. Shape Shifter EQ.

Far from the traditional classical guitar, the Tangerine finished AEG10NTNG nylon-string features a Fishman¬ Sonicore¬ pickup, Shape Shifter EQ and a comfortable cutaway body with a 14th fret neck joint. It's the perfect guitar for the performing steel string player who needs nylon now. You can get the classical nylon sound while using your steel string technique. The new Ibanez AEQ-SS Shape Shifter EQ is a fresh new EQ design that lets you spend the bare minimum time tweaking controls and the absolute maximum time playing. It provides 3-band EQ with a true Loudness control and a phase reverse switch for feedback elimination. It's built with a Spruce top, Mahogany back & sides, and a Mahogany neck with a Rosewood fretboard.

The AE series continues to be one of the top selling acoustic-electrics in the world. That's because the AE series has the unbeatable combination of a slim neck, feedback resistant body, comfortable playability, and high fidelity electronics make it one of the finest live performance guitars at any price.

I think I will be stisfied with this for a couple of years at least. I was playing a steel stringed Ovation. It's afine guitar, but slips off my lap, a bit bulky, and you have to really pull the strings to get good sound out of it when finger picking (which it is not designed fo, of course).
Sound
It's arich sound for a medium sized guitar.
Features
Just like the ad says, the neck is more like a steel string. Not bulky. Smooth playing.
Quality
Since I just bought it this is hard to answer. It has a substantial fel to it. Strings don't rattle, beautiful appearance, fit and finish are very nice.
Value
I'm very satisfied with the price for a guitar of this quality. I tried out a few that were cheaper, but they just didn't have the asthetic and tone pleasing quality. This was a modest increasein price for what seems to me a lot of value.

The Wow Factor
It's asthetically pleasing. Gold tuning pegs. Good finish, although the "tangerine" is a little reddish (garish looking) but not too bad.
