Product Description
The Ibanez V44MINIE-OPN is a compact 3/4-size electro acoustic that is perfect for younger players, travellers or anyone who wants a comfortable, easy-playing guitar that can still be plugged in and heard on stage. With its Open Pore Natural finish, undersaddle pickup and simple, intuitive preamp, it offers genuine acoustic tone in a portable package that is ready for practice, performance and everything in between.
Built from Meranti with a Nandu Wood fretboard and bridge, the V44MINIE-OPN delivers a warm, balanced sound that feels familiar and musical straight away. Plug into an amp or PA and the Ibanez Undersaddle pickup and AEQ-2T preamp faithfully capture that acoustic character, while the onboard tuner keeps you in tune wherever you play.
Comfortable 3/4 Dreadnought Body
The 3/4-size dreadnought body makes this guitar significantly more compact than a full-size acoustic, without losing the classic dreadnought voice. It is easier to hold for younger players and those with a smaller frame, and it is ideal for sofa playing, lessons or taking on the road. The shorter 579 mm scale length also reduces string tension, making chords and bends feel softer under the fingers.
Warm, Balanced Meranti Construction
Meranti is used for the top, back and sides, as well as the neck, giving the V44MINIE-OPN a cohesive, balanced tonal character. The Meranti top responds well to both strumming and fingerpicking, producing a warm, even sound that works for many styles. Matching Meranti back and sides help project the tone naturally, so you get a pleasing acoustic voice whether you are practising unplugged or playing through an amp.
Nandu Wood Fretboard and Bridge
The Nandu Wood fretboard offers a smooth playing surface with a rich, warm tonal response that complements the Meranti body. Paired with a Nandu Wood bridge, string vibrations are transferred efficiently into the top, helping the guitar resonate freely and naturally. White dot inlays provide clear visual markers, making it easy to navigate the neck as you learn new chords and scales.
Stage Ready Electronics with Onboard Tuner
An Ibanez Undersaddle pickup and AEQ-2T preamp make the V44MINIE-OPN ready for amplified performance. The pickup accurately reproduces the acoustic character of the guitar, while the AEQ-2T preamp gives you control over bass and treble so you can tailor your sound to different rooms and systems. The built-in tuner can be used even when the guitar is not plugged in, helping you stay perfectly in tune at home, in rehearsal or on stage.
Features
- Compact 3/4 Dreadnought Body - The smaller 3/4-size dreadnought shape is easier to handle for younger players and those who find full-size guitars uncomfortable. It is also highly portable, making it a great choice for travel, lessons and casual playing around the house.
- All-Meranti Body for Warm, Balanced Tone - Meranti top, back and sides provide a warm, balanced acoustic sound that suits strumming and fingerstyle alike. The consistent tonewood choice helps the guitar respond evenly across the frequency range, giving you a reliable, musical voice every time you play.
- Nandu Wood Fretboard and Bridge - The Nandu Wood fretboard feels smooth and comfortable under the fingers, while the matching Nandu Wood bridge efficiently transfers string vibration to the body. Together they contribute to a rich, natural tone and a reassuring playing feel.
- Ibanez AEQ-2T Preamp with Undersaddle Pickup - The Ibanez Undersaddle pickup and AEQ-2T preamp let you plug straight into an amp or PA with clear, natural sound. Bass and treble controls help you shape your tone, and the onboard tuner means quick, accurate tuning without extra gear.
