A Modern Acoustic, For The Modern Player
With the PA series of acoustics, Ibanez have opted for an all-new approach to the guitar, with asymmetric jumbo bodies and fine-tuned playability that's suited to modern fingeerstyle players.
Not only that, but the guitars also utilise a multiple pickup system that offers stereo outputs and contact pickups, for an incredible array of tonal options.

- Two outputs offer an exceptional range of sound options

Premium-Grade Construction
At first glance the most noticeable thing about the PA300E is the unique shape of its body - an asymmetrical Jumbo, crafted from high grade German Spruce and Pau Ferro.
For this body Ibanez have taken the traditional Jumbo shape and given it a more asymmetric waist, which offers a friendly shape for fingerstyle players and tappers, and delivers a low-end focused sound.
In addition to this, Ibanez have invested several years-worth of research and development into the creation of their new X-M bracing design for these guitars, which creates a highly responsive sound and wide dynamic range.
Incredible Tonality
Another unique feature on this guitar is the inclusion of a slightly-extended scale length of 25.75" (as opposed to the more traditional 25.5").
This scale length helps the guitar to retain correct levels of tension and pitch, even with down-tuned strings, as well as increasing natural sustain.
Distinct Pickup System
The icing on the cake with the PA300E-NSL is the inclusion of several high quality pickups and a Stereo Out electronics system.
First we have the small, lightweight AP11 Magnetic pickup that's positioned where it won't inhibit the top wood's natural vibrations. This pickup delivers a very responsive sound, with minimal feeedback, and a lively response across the entire audible spectrum.
Next we have a T-Bar under-saddle pickup that reduces noise and delivers the kind of wide range, natural piezo-style sounds that you'd expect from an Ibanez Acoustic, whilst also capturing palm hits for a bass drum-like response.
As it's placed on the neck block, the Ibanez Block contact pickup is feedback resistant and manages to evenly capture percussive sounds from the body to the neck, whilst adding air and brightness to the piezo sound.
Finally, the three transducer Contact pickup delivers organic individual note clarity, whilst naturally reproducing percussive body tapping techniques.
Dual Outputs
Complimenting the pickups perfectly is not one, but two 1/4" jack socket outputs, which give you three incredible output options.
If you use just the end-pin output, then all three pickup systems (Magnetic, Undersaddle, and Contact) will be output using a mixed signal.
When both the end-pin and open jack are used, then the end-pin transports the Magnetic pickup's output, whilst the Open Jack delivers a mix of Undersaddle and Contact pickup audio.
Each pickup type features independent Volume controls, allowing you to fine tune your output depending on your needs.
All-in-all the Ibanez PA300E-NSL is a superb modern acoustic that's ideal for contemporary and experimental acoustic players, and it can be yours now for a fantastic price.
