Ibanez EWP32FM-GBL Acoustic Piccolo Guitar Glacier Blue Open Pore

The Ibanez EWP32 is a 1/3-size, steel string Piccolo acoustic guitar. Similar in scale to a Baritone ukulele (17”), the EWP32 sports an EW style cutaway body. The top, back, and sides are made of Flamed Maple, known for its beautiful figuring and tone. An open pore Natural finish allows the body to resonate more freely for improved tone and projection. Other features include an Abalone rosette, Purpleheart fretboard, and bridge and chrome die-cast tuners.

Smaller scale instruments have increased in popularity over the past few years, because not only do students seem to be starting younger than ever, but also the easy-to-transport guitar has become recognized as an excellent companion for the weary traveler. From the on-the-go businessperson who needs a guitar that can fit in a plane’s overhead compartment, to the happy wanderer just looking to animate his sojourn with a song, the compact travel guitar can be an uplifting addition to any expedition.

To optimize string tension, intonation, and tone, the EWP32 is tuned in the key of A (A, D, G, C, E, A), up a fourth from standard tuning.
