Solid Sitka Spruce Top and Scalloped Bracing
The top wood is key for any acoustic guitar's voice, and the AE200JR delivers with a solid piece of choice Sitka spruce. This wood organically produces a wide range of overtones, resulting in sparkling highs, focused mids and enveloping low end. Internally, scalloped X-bracing further enhances bloom and volume, ensuring that the instrument sympathetically resonates as a quality acoustic should. This carefully designed bracing system sends vibration from the strings through the bridge directly into the body. Guitarists of all types will appreciate the dynamic range and balanced frequency response of this premium Sitka spruce top and advanced bracing technique.

Mellow Okoume Back and Sides
The Ibanez AE200JR's spruce top is matched with an okoume back and sides. Okoume is known for its warm, mellow tone when played softly, complementing fingerstyle playing beautifully. When strummed or played harder, okoume provides presence in the mid and high frequencies, letting your rhythm chops cut through the mix. The wood's natural acoustic properties mean you can alter your tone simply by adjusting your attack. Both studio guitarists and performers will appreciate the tonal control provided by the okoume body and how it offers real-time "feedback" in response to player input.

Comfortably Playing Neck and Fingerboard
The AE200JR sports a nyatoh neck and ovangkol fingerboard for smooth, comfortable playability. The satin-finished nyatoh neck features a slim profile that feels fast and effortless, echoing the speed associated with Ibanez electrics in a more subdued presentation. Ovangkol has a tighter grain compared to an offering like rosewood, resulting in a fingerboard that promotes accurate, low-fatigue playing as your fingers glide from fret to fret. The wood's crisp attack also brings out note clarity, which is always a favorable quality, especially for voicing larger chords. Together, the nyatoh neck and ovangkol fingerboard make the AE200JR feel familiar and comfortable to play while also showcasing your technique.

Custom Electronics for Amplified Performance
While the AE200JR effortlessly holds its own unplugged, Ibanez includes custom electronics that let you amplify your sound when the performance calls for it. The undersaddle Ibanez T-bar pickup meticulously captures the guitar's natural acoustic tone with minimal coloration, so the AE200JR's sound translates to PA systems just as it would if listeners were hearing it intimately in the room. The streamlined preamp features a built-in mute switch for quick volume control on stage, and it's thoughtfully designed to maintain a small footprint. Just plug in to easily share your acoustic tone with any venue or recording setup.

With its blend of traditional design and modern innovations, the Ibanez AE200JR Mini Auditorium acoustic-electric guitar offers impeccable playability, an impressive dynamic range and a versatile sonic foundation for every style of acoustic playing. Guitarists needing amplified acoustic tone will appreciate the AE200JR for its simplified, high-quality electronics that take nothing away from the guitar's inherent, unplugged properties. Add a workhorse acoustic-electric to your collection with the Ibanez AE200JR Mini Auditorium today.
