Built into a reimagined body shape, the AAM50-OPN features Advanced Auditorium body shape offers a richer low mids and an improved body to weight balance. This is achieved by slightly widening the waist and shifting it towards the neck, addressing the shortcomings of conventional Auditorium bodies.
Comfort is matched with sound quality, with a proprietary construction technique, X-M bracing has been specifically-designed to deliver maximum resonance. Pair this with the Purpleheart fretboard and birdge, Sapele back and sides and solit Sitka spruce top and you have an instrument that plays, feels and sounds as good in equal parts.

View Full DescriptionEnhanced Sound Projection
The Ibanez AAM50-OPN features the innovative A.I.R.port technology. This unique internal structure reflects sound waves and directs them towards a precisely positioned sound hole. This design allows players to monitor their playing more clearly, resulting in an enhanced overall playing experience. Whether you're performing on stage or recording in the studio, the A.I.R.port ensures that your sound carries with clarity and precision.
X-M Bracing for Optimized Sound Projection
After years of research and experimentation, Ibanez has developed its proprietary X-M bracing system exclusively for the Advanced Auditorium body in the AAM series. The scalloped X-M bracing, combined with carefully positioned tone braces and finger braces, efficiently transmit string vibration from the bridge to the body. This results in a wide dynamic range, excellent response, and a balanced tone. The mids are slightly scooped for better tonal balance, while the treble offers the clarity of steel strings with the warmth usually associated with nylon strings.
Solid Sitka Spruce Top for Exceptional Resonance
The Ibanez AAM50-OPN features a solid Sitka Spruce top, renowned for its ability to produce an enormous frequency range. This tonewood delivers wave after wave of shimmering highs, along with tight mids and a full-bodied low-end response. The result is a well-balanced and versatile sound that suits a variety of playing styles and musical genres.
Sapele Back and Sides for Rich Tonal Character
The back and sides of the AAM50-OPN are crafted from sapele, a tonewood known for its rich and warm mid-range. This choice of material contributes to the instrument's overall brightness and full-bodied tone. Whether you're strumming chords or fingerpicking melodies, the sapele back and sides provide a lush and vibrant sonic foundation.
Low Oval Grip Okoume Neck for Comfortable Playability
The AAM50-OPN features a low oval grip Okoume neck, designed to facilitate easy chord strumming. This ergonomic neck shape fits comfortably in the hand, allowing for a comfortable playing experience even during long performances or recording sessions. Enjoy effortless transitions between chords and dynamic control over your playing with this well-crafted neck.
Purpleheart Fretboard and Bridge for Enhanced Tonality
Both the fretboard and bridge of the AAM50-OPN are constructed from Purpleheart, a tonewood known for its beautiful appearance and rich tonal character. The Purpleheart fretboard not only adds to the guitar's aesthetic allure but also enhances the overall tonality of the instrument. The Purpleheart bridge transfers string vibration directly to the body, delivering a natural and warm tone that resonates with depth and clarity.
