Solid Engelmann Spruce top and mahogany back and sides. Ivorex II nut and saddle. Gold Grover tuners.

The AW30 solid top Artwood offers the more playability and quality acoustic sound than you'll find in acoustics with higher price tags. The AW30 is one of the most popular solid top acoustics in its price range boasting a solid Engelmann Spruce top, mahogany back and sides, maple body and neck binding and Ibanez gold die-cast tuners. The AW30 gives incredible presence and depth of tone that is hard to come by with other models.
