Ibanez Altstar ALT30 Dreadnought Acoustic/Electric Guitar – Night Blue Metallic
Continuing the fine Altstar tradition of offering acoustic instruments that any electric player would love, the Night Blue Metallic Altstar ALT30 from Ibanez is a versatile acoustic/electric hybrid guitar with a supremely comfortable maple neck sporting a Comfort Grip contour design that is incredibly easy to play. With a beautiful spruce top, sapele back and sides, and a walnut bridge and fretboard, the ALT30 sounds wonderful, featuring a natural warm tone that is balanced enough to go from low to high with ease.
Like all Altstar guitars, the ALT30 sports a compact dreadnought body, a 15.7″ fretboard radius, tighter-than-average string spacing, and a 25.5″ scale neck, along with a single cutaway and a neck joint at the 16th fret, rather than the 12th for superior upper-fret access. The built-in AEQ-2UT and undersaddle pickup provide an ideal option for live performances, letting you plug into any sound system via the 1/4″ output. Additionally, the preamp system comes with a convenient onboard tuner.

Altstar models are the perfect option for the aspiring electric player with a drive to explore the world of acoustic guitars. Whether you’re just looking to delve into the world of acoustic guitars or seeking a quieter practice option while maintaining an electric guitar feel, this is your axe.Ibanez AEQ-2UT PreampThe integrated preamp and undersaddle pickup ensure clean amplification of your acoustic guitar tone during performances. The preamp module features 2-band bass and treble adjustment for tone, as well as a volume knob for adjusting output gain. Plus, you get a handy tuner, so you never have to worry about forgetting your tuner at home again.Ibanez Advantage Bridge PinsThe Ibanez Advantage bridge pins are an advantage over old-fashioned pins. Advantage pins are easier to take out and easier to put in than standard pins.
A special bulb-shaped end makes the pin easy to grip and also prevents the pin from being pushed in too far. Best of all, with Advantage, the pin and string stays put.
