Ibanez AEL108TD NT Natural 8-String Acoustic Electric Guitar B-Stock

Ibanez AEL108TD NT Natural 8-String Acoustic Electric Guitar

This 8-string acoustic electric captures a full, resonant voice ideal for layering extended harmonic textures in the studio. The doubled B and E treble strings expand harmonic density while maintaining ergonomic familiarity through Ibanez's soft Venetian cutaway design. A B-stock cosmetic mark at the 6th fret edge does not affect sound or playability—this is a fully functional, ready-to-record instrument.

Recording Tone & Construction

The jumbo body with spruce top and X bracing paired to mahogany back and sides produces warm, articulate resonance with solid projection suited for both close-mic and room-capture techniques. The gloss finish, decorative abalone and maple rosette, and multi-binding deliver structural integrity and tonal clarity essential for tracking and mixing work.

Amplified Capture & Studio Workflow

The Fishman Sonicore pickup and AEQ-SP2 preamp with onboard tuner provide transparent amplified tone without coloration, enabling clean direct-to-interface tracking and quick session tuning verification. A 648 mm scale length and 45 mm nut width accommodate 8-string spacing while the 20-fret rosewood fingerboard with white dot markers ensure accurate fretting across extended range material.
