Ibanez AAD100 – Advanced Acoustic Grand Dreadnought
The Ibanez AAD100 is part of the revolutionary Advanced Acoustic series, a line built from the ground up to deliver greater projection, broader dynamic range, and richer tonal complexity than traditional acoustic guitars. With its completely re-engineered proportions, the Grand Dreadnought body – approximately 5% larger than a standard dreadnought – produces a bold, room-filling sound with exceptional clarity and depth.
Despite its larger footprint, the AAD100 remains highly comfortable to play thanks to carefully refined ergonomics and a thoughtfully sculpted neck. Designed for musicians seeking a more expressive and immersive acoustic experience, the AAD100 represents a major evolution in Ibanez’s long acoustic heritage.
Solid Sitka Spruce Power with X‑M Bracing
The guitar’s solid Sitka spruce top delivers a wide dynamic range, fast response, and excellent definition. Beneath the top, Ibanez’s X‑M bracing architecture enhances resonance and improves projection while tightening up the bass and adding upper‑mid clarity.
The back and sides are crafted from okoume, offering a warm, woody tonal character with pleasant midrange thickness—ideal for both fingerstyle and strumming.
Thermo‑Aged Nyatoh Neck for Superior Feel
The AAD100 features a Thermo‑Aged nyatoh neck, processed to improve stability, resonance, and long‑term durability. Its Low Oval Grip design and rounded fingerboard edges make this instrument exceptionally comfortable, supporting long sessions of practice, performance, or recording.
Finished with an ovangkol fingerboard and matching ovangkol bridge, the guitar offers a smooth, balanced playing surface and excellent sustain.
