Ibanez Acoustic/Electric Bass Trans Black

5lbs 3oz.

Featuring the same slimmer body depth design of past AEG offerings, the Ibanez AEGB25E is a high-performance acoustic-electric bass guitar that feels excellent to play. Players will experience rich articulation, fat midrange, and loads of resonant warmth thanks to the AEGB25E's 100% sapele body construction, while a slim and easy-to-command 3-piece nyatoh/maple neck ensures stellar response and playability. Plug in, and you'll be blown away by this acoustic bass's amplified tone, courtesy of an Ibanez AEQ-2T preamp with an accompanying under-saddle pickup and pro-performing onboard controls. Ultra-stable die-cast tuning machines round out the AEGB25E's robust features, allowing players to hold up the low end of acoustic jams and stage performances with total confidence.

Standout sapele tone

It’s a widely known fact that bassists are serious about their tone. Luckily, the AEGB25E's sapele construction provides a robust and resonant tone with just a hint of high-end sparkle. Sapele, one of the most popular tonewoods in the Ibanez acoustic lineup, is incredibly similar to mahogany, both sonically and visually. The warmth and balance of sapele work perfectly for singers and songwriters, further complemented by captivating projection and note articulation. Whether you’re playing solo, unplugged with your friends, or holding down the groove onstage, the AEGB25E will feel right at home.

AEQ-T2 preamp with built-in tuner

The Ibanez AEGB25E works with a discreet under-saddle pickup that runs in conjunction with Ibanez’s AEQ-2T preamp. With Volume, Bass, and Treble control knobs, not to mention the convenience of an integrated tuner, you'll find crafting the perfect plugged-in sound to be easier than ever. Bassists here at Mom's have found that swapping batteries is a breeze, too; drop your 9-volt battery into the control plate on the upper bout, and you’re always ready to keep the show rolling!

Enviable playing comfort

With its optimized AEGB profile, the 3-piece nyatoh/maple neck lands in your palm with remarkable playing comfort. Factor in the smooth feel and incredible sustain of its flat 15.75-inch-radiused rosewood fingerboard, and the effortless navigability and pure sound you'll experience throughout the octaves are sure to satisfy. Plus, a single cutaway guarantees easy access to every fret.
