ENGLISH

Thank you for purchasing this Ibanez guitar. All Ibanez products are produced

under strict quality standards, and are set up with the utmost care before

shipment.

In order to take full advantage of your new instrument and to ensure years of

trouble-free enjoyment, please read this manual carefully.

Safety information

●  When using a strap, make sure the strap is securely fastened to the guitar.

●  Do not swing or spin the guitar. If you swing the guitar or spin it around your 

body, the strap could become disconnected or the guitar could strike other

people or objects, causing an accident or injury.

●  Do not use in extremely hot locations (such as in direct sunlight or near heating 

equipment), in locations subject to rain, moisture, humidity, wind, or vibration, or

in very dusty locations.

●  Do not put your face near the guitar while playing. A broken string could cause 

injury if it strikes the hands or face, or could cause blindness if it strikes the eyes.

Always take adequate precautions.

●  A guitar string can be very sharp when it is cut (particularly the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd 

strings) and could cause injury if it is touched directly. When wiping the guitar 

head with a cloth, take particular care not to strike your hand against the wound

strings as this could cause injury. When replacing the strings, cut the strings short 

enough so that the leftover portion of the strings do not strike your ngers.

●  Keep replacement parts and batteries away from children as these could pose a 

choking hazard.

Proper storage

●  Acoustic guitars are made largely of wood. Avoid environments with extremely 

low or high temperatures, humidity, or drastic environmental changes. These

could cause the guitar to deform or crack.

●  Be aware of high temperatures in the summer. If the guitar is left for a prolonged 

period in a particular hot environment, such as being exposed to direct sunlight 

while left in a car, plastics, such as the preamp case or internal circuitry or resins

used in the guitar’s paint, could deform, malfunction, or deteriorate. Painted

surfaces are particular subject to discoloration when exposed to direct sunlight.

●  Avoid placing the guitar near ames, and store it in a stable, sturdy location 

where it will not tip over or fall.

●  If the surface of the guitar is placed directly on plastics or furniture for a 

prolonged period, color transfer or adhesion could occur. To avoid this, put the

guitar in a case or bag when storing it.

Cleaning

Appropriate cleaning is an important way to ensure that your guitar will

remain in good condition for many years. Humidity, perspiration, and nger 

oils (ngerprints) that remain on the strings or metal parts will cause rust or 

corrosion. Use a specially made guitar wiping cloth to wipe down your instrument

immediately after playing. Guitars with a gloss nish should be lightly wiped 

using a guitar wiping cloth treated with polish formulated specically for guitars, 

or using a soft cotton cloth. Polyester cloth can scratch the nish.

Adjusting the neck

Neck adjustments require special techniques and tools, and are best left to ■

repair professionals or specialists at your dealer.

Follow these instructions to conrm whether the guitar neck is adjusted  ■

correctly. Begin by attaching a capo at the rst fret. Next, press the string at the 

joint where the neck joins the body. In this state, there should be a 0.2 mm –

0.4 mm between the top of the seventh fret and the string. If this gap is correct,

there are no major problems with the neck adjustment. If this gap is too large,

the neck is curved excessively; this will cause the action to be too high in the 

middle of the neck, and will impair the intonation and playability. Even if there is

no gap at all, this is not a problem if you are not experiencing fret buzz or notes 

that do not ring true. If you do experience these problems, the neck should be 

adjusted.

Adjusting the saddle

If the action is too high or too low even though the neck is adjusted correctly,

it may be necessary to adjust the saddle. As with the neck, adjustments to the

saddle require special techniques and tools, and should be performed by repair

professionals or specialists at your dealer.

Ibanez Custom Electronics

Introduction (precautions)

Before connecting the guitar to a speaker or amp, following the instructions  ■

listed in “Replacing the batteries” and install the batteries.

Before inserting or removing a guitar cable from the endpin jack, turn the  ■

volume of the connected speaker or amp to its lowest setting.

To minimize adverse effects to the guitar’s sound quality and body, the guitar ■

is not equipped with volume controls or tone controls. To explore the nuances 

and ne-tuning of your instrument, and to enjoy the widest ranges of the 

electric-acoustic sound, we recommend using an external preamp designed for 

acoustic guitars, such as the Ibanez AGP10 preamp.

When not using the guitar, or when not connecting the guitar to a speaker  ■

or amp, remove the guitar cable from the endpin jack. If the guitar remains

inserted in the endpin jack, the preamp remains turned on and depletes the

batteries.

To avoid malfunction and faulty connection, do not touch the guitar’s internal ■

pickup, preamp, battery box, or connectors.
