Ibanez PF15ECE Transparent Blue Sunburst — Cutaway Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar

This model is a cutaway dreadnought acoustic-electric guitar built for stage-ready tone at a working-musician price. A laminated spruce top sits over mahogany back and sides, finished in a high-gloss transparent blue sunburst. The dreadnought body delivers the volume flatpickers rely on, while the Venetian cutaway opens the upper frets for lead work. An onboard AEQ-2T preamp with built-in tuner means the instrument plugs straight into a PA.

What separates the PF15ECE from other entry-level cutaway dreadnoughts

What sets this unit apart from other entry-level cutaway dreadnoughts is the AEQ-2T preamp, which shapes bass and treble independently and runs the onboard tuner even when unplugged. Ibanez Advantage bridge pins with their bulb-shaped grip end make string changes faster and prevent pins from being pushed too deep.

Body design that projects on stage and in the room

The dreadnought shape is the acoustic workhorse, tuned here for a balanced response that suits rhythm strumming and fingerstyle alike.

• The cutaway dreadnought body provides full lower-bout volume with easy access to upper frets.
• Top: Spruce — bright, articulate response with strong fundamental clarity
• Back & Sides: Mahogany — woody warmth and focused midrange that supports vocals in a mix
• Finish: High Gloss — sealed surface that protects the tonewood

Neck profile and fingerboard built for comfortable playing

A mahogany neck with a rosewood fingerboard gives the PF15ECE a familiar feel for players moving from electric to acoustic.

• Scale Length: 648 mm — longer string travel for stronger low-end tension and projection
• Fingerboard: Rosewood — smooth feel under the fingers with warm tonal character
• Nut Width: 42 mm — comfortable for fingerstyle and strumming
• Fingerboard Radius: 240 mm — flatter profile closer to an electric guitar neck

Plug-in-ready electronics with stage-friendly controls

The AEQ-2T preamp is purpose-built for acoustic frequency response, with bass and treble knobs for shaping tone across venues.

• Preamp: Ibanez AEQ-2T — onboard tone shaping with bass, treble, and volume controls
• Pickup: Ibanez Undersaddle — captures string vibration directly for a natural amplified tone
• Tuner: Built-in — chromatic tuner accessible from the preamp panel — works even when unplugged
• Bridge Pins: Ibanez Advantage™ — bulb-end grip makes string changes faster

Who the PF15ECE is built for

This instrument is the right choice for developing players and gigging singer-songwriters who need a reliable acoustic-electric at a working-musician price. The cutaway dreadnought body suits strummers who also want to solo up the neck, while the undersaddle pickup and AEQ-2T preamp make it a natural fit for open-mic nights and church services. Players moving from electric will appreciate the flat 240 mm fingerboard radius. Beginners benefit from the built-in tuner, which removes the need for a separate clip-on.
