Ibanez AEGB25E-TKH Electro Acoustic Bass Guitar in Transparent Black Sunburst High Gloss

The Ibanez AEGB25E-TKH is a sleek, stage-ready electro acoustic bass that combines a compact, comfortable body with a clear, punchy amplified tone. With its flamed Maple top, Sapele back and sides and a powerful Ibanez undersaddle pickup and preamp system, it is ideal for bassists who need an instrument that feels effortless to play, looks professional under stage lights and delivers a reliable, musical sound whether unplugged or through a PA.

Designed around the popular AEG platform, this 4-string bass offers a shorter 815.5 mm scale length that makes stretches and complex lines easier, while still retaining a solid, authoritative low end. The 3-piece Nyatoh and Maple neck and Rosewood fingerboard provide a smooth, stable playing experience, and the onboard AEQ-2T preamp with tuner keeps you in control of your sound in any performance situation.

The Transparent Black Sunburst High Gloss finish shows off the flamed Maple top beautifully, giving the AEGB25E-TKH a refined, modern aesthetic that suits any stage. A thoughtfully positioned finger rest lets you tailor your right-hand technique for comfort and consistency, whether you prefer a traditional thumb anchor or a more floating approach. Light in weight and easy to handle, this bass is a practical choice for rehearsals, gigs and acoustic sessions alike.

Comfortable, Compact Electro Acoustic Design

The AEGB25E-TKH is built on a compact AEG-style body that sits comfortably whether you are seated or standing. The slimmer depth helps reduce fatigue over long sets while still providing a full-bodied acoustic response, making it a great option for players moving from electric bass or anyone wanting an easy-playing acoustic instrument.

Flamed Maple Top with Sapele Back and Sides

A flamed Maple top gives this bass a bright, articulate character that helps your lines cut through an acoustic mix, while the Sapele back and sides add warmth and a rounded midrange. This combination delivers a balanced voice that works well for everything from gentle accompaniment to more rhythmic, percussive playing.

Stable 3-piece Neck and Rosewood Fingerboard

The 3-piece Nyatoh and Maple neck is designed for strength and tuning stability, helping the bass stay consistent across changing environments. Paired with a smooth Rosewood fingerboard, it offers a comfortable feel under the fingers with a focused midrange response that supports clear note definition up and down the neck.

Ibanez Electronics with Onboard Tuner

The Ibanez undersaddle pickup captures a natural, usable bass tone that translates well through amps and PA systems. The AEQ-2T preamp provides bass and treble controls so you can quickly shape your sound to suit the room, along with a built-in tuner for fast, accurate tuning without needing extra pedals.

Finger Rest for Flexible Right-hand Technique

A dedicated finger rest gives you an additional anchor point for your plucking hand, allowing you to refine your technique for comfort and consistency. Whether you like to dig in near the neck or play closer to the bridge, the finger rest helps you find a stable, repeatable position that suits your style.
