Ibanez AUC10E-OPN Concert Ukulele at a glance
The Ibanez AUC10E-OPN Concert ukulele not only impresses with its exceptional sound, but also with its unique design. As a beginner's instrument as well as for advanced players, this concert ukulele in an attractive open-pored natural finish combines traditional craftsmanship with modern technology. With its outstanding construction of a body made from a solid hollowed block of paulownia, double sound holes and a laminated spruce top, the ukulele produces an outstanding acoustic sound that brings out every note and every chord with unique clarity and, thanks to the high-quality pickup, is easy to play. It also impresses with numerous ergonomic features for maximum playability and is furthermore supplied in a transport-friendly gig bag with rucksack set.
The Ibanez AUC10E-OPN Concert Ukulele is an expression of quality, innovation and musical passion.
The heart of the ukulele is its solid body for an overwhelming sound resonance.
Solid body and stereo surround port
Unlike conventional guitars and ukuleles, which are usually made from separate elements for the top, back and sides, the Ibanez AU series offers a revolutionary design: the body is formed from a solid block of wood, which is artfully hollowed out to create the back and sides from a single piece. Finally, a top is added to complete the structure. This avant-garde construction method creates a characteristic sound that is further shaped by the selected tonewoods. For example, the laminated spruce top of the Ibanez AUC10E-OPN produces a clear, overtone-rich sound, while the solid paulownia body adds an impressive resonance. Furthermore, the innovatively designed stereo surround port on both sides of the waist creates a special surround sound experience that allows musicians to control their sound with the utmost precision and effectiveness.
Special design features ensure perfect playability.
Increased playing comfort
The instrument also impresses across the board in terms of playability. The Okoumeguitar neck offers remarkable stability and durability and, in combination with the smooth Purpleheart fingerboard and the 37 mm wide nut, ensures comfortable playability. Even complex chords and runs can be mastered with ease, while the special beveled cutaway and the rounded comfort heel simplify access to the high registers, making the concert ukulele easier to play and equally attractive for solos and advanced playing techniques. Both professionals and beginners can draw on the full range of possibilities here. Another highlight is the raised comfort armrest, which provides additional playability by reducing the pressure on the player's forearm and on the top, so that the latter is not affected in any way in its vibration behavior. Meanwhile, the die-cast tuners with black tuning wings round off the design and ensure precise and robust tuning.
The pickup captures every nuance of the playing perfectly and the preamp provides versatile tone control.
Stage-ready amplification with Ibanez UST & AEQ2U preamp
For professional amplification, the Ibanez AUC10E-OPN Concert ukulele is equipped with high-quality electronics in the form of the Ibanez UST with AEQ2U preamp. The undersaddle pickup is specially designed to capture the natural sound of the ukulele. It ensures a clear and precise output of the string vibration without altering the characteristic tone of the instrument. This is particularly important for musicians who want to retain the authentic sound of their instrument even with amplified output. Meanwhile, the AEQ-2U preamp is the perfect complement. With its user-friendly controls, the sound and volume of the ukulele can be adjusted quickly and easily. The system provides a volume control and an effective 2-band equalizer that can be used to adjust bass and treble for the ideal sound balance. In addition, the preamp has an integrated tuner that is precise and easy to operate, which is particularly useful for live performances.
