Description

The Ukulele Traders are pleased to introduce the Ibanez AUP10FMNE Advanced Electro Acoustic Ukulele in Transparent Blue Sunburst Open Pore

The Ibanez AU series ukuleles are a masterclass in innovative craftsmanship, delivering an exceptional playing experience and unique tonal qualities. Featuring a distinctive construction method where the body is carved from a single block of wood, forming the back and sides as one seamless piece.

This design ensures enhanced resonance and structural integrity. A solid top is then added to complete the body, resulting in a rich, dynamic sound with superior projection.

Stereo Sound Port System

The dual sound holes on the waist provide a unique surround sound effect, helping players more effectively monitor their sound.

Edgeless Comfort Heel

The Edgeless Comfort Heel is smoothly rounded toward the cutaway, allowing for easy playing in any position.

Chambered body (Acoustic)

Its body starts as a solid block of wood and is routed out, so that the back and sides are a single piece of wood. A top is then added to complete the body.

This construction method gives this instrument a unique sound.

About the manufacturer

Ibanez

Ibanez is a well-known Japanese brand with a long history in guitar making, particularly associated with modern electric guitars and innovative designs. Their approach to ukuleles carries over that same focus on playability, comfort, and contemporary styling. While not a traditional ukulele brand, Ibanez brings a fresh perspective that often appeals to guitarists and more modern players.

Ibanez ukuleles are typically easy to play, well set up, and designed with practical features in mind, including slim neck profiles and electro-acoustic options. Models like the UEW series are popular for their stage-ready design and distinctive finishes. Ibanez is worth checking out if you want a ukulele that feels a bit more modern, slightly different from the traditional Hawaiian style, and especially if you’re coming from a guitar background.
