Styled in a red coral sunburst, the Ibanez Altstar ALT30 is an acoustic guitar designed for electric players looking to experiment with playing unplugged. The instrument is constructed with a spruce top, sapele back and sides, and a maple neck. The 25.5"-scale neck connects to the body at the 16th fret, allowing guitarists better access the upper register. Both the fingerboard and the bridge are made from laurel.
For electronics, the ALT30 gives you an Ibanez Undersaddle pickup with an AEQ2UT preamp. You get volume, bass, and treble knobs, as well as a built-in tuner. Connections to amps and DI boxes are made via the 1/4" jack. Other features include chrome die-cast tuners at the headstock, and Ibanez Advantage pins in the bridge.
