Ibanez GA35TCE, Dark Violin Burst

Full Description

Solid Tonewoods

The Ibanez GA35TCE features a spruce top that delivers a broad dynamic range and crisp articulation. Spruce is well known for its versatility and bright top-end, and is one of the most commonly used woods for guitar tops as it accommodates numerous playing styles, from aggressive strumming to delicate fingerpicking. Solid mahogany back and sides aid in projection, giving the GA35TCE a balanced and confident tone with good dynamic range that classical guitarists require. The mahogany neck complements the body with a rosewood fingerboard, providing added resonance and sustain. The body is finished in a lovely Dark Violin Sunburst with a mosaic rosette design, while the neck features abalone inlays giving this guitar a refined aesthetic which would look great on stage.

Thinline Cutaway Classical Body & Comfortable Neck

The Ibanez GA35TCE features a single cutaway body shape which provides an extremely comfortable playing experience. The thinline body shape enables younger players to reach around the instrument with greater ease. More experienced players may find they prefer the thinner design when compared to a full sized traditional classical guitar. Featuring strap attachment points and a preamp, the GA35TCE would suit stage playing very well and the dimensions may be more familiar to electric guitar players who need a stage nylon-strung instrument. Its cutaway design offers greater fingerboard access than a traditional classical guitar and, overall, this is a modern take on the traditional instrument which will suit the more current styles of playing alongside the standard classical guitar repertoire.

Ibanez AEG210T Preamp

The Ibanez GA35TCE comes equipped with the AEG210T preamp that features a handy on-board tuner. The AEQ210T provides the option for amplified acoustic sounds and features rotary controls for volume, treble, and bass, with separate buttons for phase and tuner. Dual XLR and jack socket outputs are also provided on this guitar, giving added versatility for your live-sound setup.
