DESCRIPTION
A thin cutaway body and unfettered high-fret access give the Ibanez Altstar ALT30 a familiar feel that electric players will take to quickly. The compact dreadnought body issues a big tone from its spruce-topped-sapele tonewood medley. Up the neck, a wickedly flat 15.7″ fingerboard radius equips this acoustic-electric for true shredding — a feature that’s sure to be appreciated by progressive-music soloists to bluegrass flatpickers. And with the AEQ2UT onboard electronics, the Ibanez Altstar ALT30 and an amp or PA are all you need to gig out. Chrome die-cast tuners and an onboard electronic tuner keep you sounding your best.
