Electro Acoustic Guitar Ibanez Altstar, Red Doom Burst ALT50FA
£249.99 Inc. Vat
Designed for electric players
The Altstar design focuses on making acoustic guitars approachable for electric players. A compact dreadnought body feels comfortable seated or standing, and the single cutaway allows easy access beyond the twelfth fret. The neck joins at the sixteenth fret, giving more room for lead lines and higher chord shapes. Combined with a 25.5 inch scale and tighter string spacing, the overall feel remains familiar, reducing fatigue and helping electric players settle in quickly. This thoughtful layout supports confidence during practice, recording, and early performances.
Comfortable modern playability
Playability is further enhanced by the Comfort Grip maple neck, which uses a gentle contour to sit naturally in the hand. Large frets make bends, slides, and quick phrasing feel smooth and controlled, especially for players used to electric setups. A Purpleheart fretboard contributes a clear, focused tone, keeping note definition strong across chords and single notes while maintaining a familiar response under the fingers. It balances comfort and clarity, helping new acoustic players develop technique in a natural and intuitive way.
Balanced acoustic tone
Tonally, the ALT50FA aims for balance and versatility rather than overpowering volume. A flamed maple art grain top over basswood keeps the response even, while sapele back and sides add warmth and a rounded midrange. This combination suits strumming and fingerstyle alike, making the guitar adaptable for songwriting, casual performance, and everyday practice across different styles. It remains controlled when amplified and avoids harsh peaks, which helps chords ring clearly at low volumes and unplugged practice sessions late at night.
Practical electronics and hardware
For live use, the Ibanez undersaddle pickup and AEQ-2T preamp provide simple, practical control. Bass and treble knobs allow quick adjustment on the fly, and the onboard tuner works even when unplugged. Reliable hardware, including Advantage bridge pins and stable die cast tuners, keeps tuning solid and maintenance straightforward. It is a dependable acoustic electric option for learning, rehearsing, and performing during home practice, lessons, and relaxed writing sessions or travel use overall value.

Grand Concert Body
The Ibanez AC340 Artwood features a grand concert body which is significantly smaller than the grand auditorium, providing comfort for players of any ability due to its compact size and nipped in waist. Although the AC340 offers great projection and volume, and is able to handle many different genres and playing styles; the AC340 Artwood is particularly well-suited to fingerstylists. In addition, the mellow warmth produced by the AC340’s mahogany construction is also ideal for smooth blues and slide enthusiasts.
