Overview
Classical-style fan bracing under a Sitka spruce top drives this thinline nylon guitar, giving a touch-sensitive response even from a light pluck. An under-saddle pickup with Ibanez custom electronics carries that sound when plugged in, while cutaways on both sides open the upper frets.
Players who like the feel of an electric guitar get a nylon string voice in an ultra-thin body that Ibanez says handles like a slab electric. Sapele back and sides add balance and top-end shimmer. Ibanez lists no preamp controls or tuner, so features beyond the pickup are unknown.
Who it's for
Stage players switching between electric and nylon parts get a thin, light body that handles like their main guitar. Classical purists after traditional body depth should choose a standard classical model.
Pros and cons
- Fan bracing gives touch-sensitive response
- Thin body feels like an electric

Performance notes
Fan bracing lets the spruce top respond to a light touch, while the sapele back and sides shape a balanced tone with top-end shimmer. Amplified, the under-saddle piezo senses string vibration at the saddle, so saddle contact and string condition govern the plugged-in sound.
