Ibanez ALT50FA BDB Altstar Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar w/ Pickup Blue Doom Burst High Gloss

Electric-Style Comfort In A Compact Acoustic Format

The Ibanez ALT50FA is designed to make the transition from electric to acoustic feel natural and familiar. The compact Altstar dreadnought body reduces bulk without sacrificing balance, keeping the guitar comfortable against the body while still delivering clear projection for practice or performance. A flamed maple art grain top over basswood produces a focused, controlled response, helping notes stay articulate rather than overly resonant, which suits players accustomed to tighter electric guitar dynamics.

Sapele back and sides add warmth and body through the midrange, smoothing the attack and supporting chord clarity. The Comfort Grip maple neck uses a 25.5 inch scale, tighter string spacing, and a flatter fingerboard radius to mirror electric guitar geometry, while the 16th-fret neck joint and single cutaway provide confident access to upper positions. Large frets encourage clean bends and fast phrasing. For amplified use, the undersaddle pickup pairs with the AEQ-2T preamp, offering practical bass and treble shaping plus an onboard tuner for quick adjustments.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the ALT50FA is ideal for electric players wanting an approachable acoustic feel, combining compact ergonomics, focused tone, and straightforward electronics for everyday playing.
