Description
Ibanez AW4000 BS Artwood Brown Sunburst Gloss Acoustic Guitar
The AW4000 captures a balanced, articulate voice with its dreadnought body and precisely voiced neck dimensions—the 21mm thickness at the 1st fret tapering to 22mm at the 7th creates a responsive playing feel that translates directly to recordings. This B-stock example shows minor cosmetic wear on the neck but maintains full structural and tonal integrity, making it an excellent value for engineers and producers building a versatile acoustic toolkit.
Recording Clarity & Fretboard Precision
The 651mm (25.6") scale with 43mm nut width and 55mm width at the 14th fret ensures excellent note definition and string separation during tracking—critical for layered acoustic parts and fingerstyle session work. The 400mm fretboard radius supports both precise single-note clarity and full-voiced chords, while the mahogany neck paired with open-gear Grover tuners and bone nut maintains tuning stability across takes and offers the mechanical consistency needed for consistent recorded tone.
Mic-Friendly Tone & Resonance
Solid Caucasian Spruce top combined with solid mahogany back and sides produces the warm, balanced resonance that sits naturally in a mix—a contemporary interpretation of traditional acoustic tone that records with clarity and presence. This wood pairing captures both fingerstyle definition and strummed dynamics across the full frequency range, translating to recordings that need minimal EQ adjustment.
