Ibanez MSC700NT Acoustic Electric Guitar
The Ibanez MSC700NT acoustic electric guitar is a fine looking, high quality instrument sure to please even the most demanding pro guitar players who need their acoustic sounds electrified at the drop of a hat in even the most chaotic club situations. This particular model in the guitar maker's Montage Series of instruments effectively joins the acoustic and electric and a very nice manner.
Technically, the guitar provides to acoustic sounds in addition to electric sounds through use of two separate pickups. Additionally, it presents these sounds by making use of onboard electronic technologies such as mixing capabilities, reverb, chorus, a crunchy sounding distortion and a bit of phase canceling along with a dual notch filter and tuner.
A player is sure to be pleased by the guitar offering the proprietary "Fast Action Set up Technology" that allows a player to quickly and easily set up the guitar's action (which is the height of the strings above the guitar's fingerboard and frets) in accordance with a player's personal playing style and preferences. This is a comfort, and will help eliminate any buzz or feedback when a string is plucked or struck.
The guitar and its electronics package runs off four AA batteries, by the way, and they are easily changed out in just a matter of a couple of minutes. This particular acoustic electric guitar features a fine cedar top and extra high quality rosewood back and sides that are finished off in a natural blonde high-gloss finish.
All Montage Series acoustic electric guitars feature what's called a semi-jumbo, single cutaway style body. Additionally, the hardware upon the neck includes gold-plated die-cast tuners (sometimes called machine heads) along with really attractive brown pearloid tuning knobs. The whole package combines to create one seriously good-looking set up.
There are 20 frets on the neck, sitting above that fingerboard, and the strings supplied are good quality D'Addarios that managed to give the best of both worlds -- both acoustic and electric -- and also crisp, clear sound in either genre. The model itself sits above a couple of other Montage Series acoustic electrics and the quality of its construction is evident throughout.
The Ibanez MSC700NT acoustic electric guitar usually lists at nearly $1100 but can be found at many online retailer websites for somewhere around $750 after discounts. It does not come with a hard shell case, and it is highly recommended that one be purchased along with the guitar.
