AVD11CE Antique Natural Semi-gloss

The AVD11CE is an Artwood Vintage series acoustic guitar model introduced by Ibanez for 2020. It is made in China.

The AVD11CE features a cutaway dreadnought body shape with a solid Thermo Aged Caucasian spruce top with Thermo Aged spruce X bracing and herringbone purfling with tortoiseshell binding on okoume back and sides with an antique semi-gloss finish. The soundhole is round with a wooden rosette and a black pickguard. It has a soft-V shaped nyatoh neck with a 20-fret ovangkol fingerboard with gold mother of pearl dot position markers. Components include a compensated oil-impregnated bone saddle in an ovangkol bridge with black Ibanez Advantage bridge pins, an oil-impregnated bone nut, and Ibanez antique chrome covered tuning machines. Electronics include an AEQ-AP2 preamp with onboard tuner, a Fishman Sonicore undersaddle pickup, a 9V battery, and balanced XLR and ¼" outputs.

The AVD11 is a traditional acoustic version. The AVC11CE is a similar model with a grand concert body shape and a shorter scale neck. The AVD9CE is a related model with a Sitka spruce top with no purfling and a standard bone nut and saddle.

The AVD11CE was discontinued after 2021 along with the entire Artwood Vintage line.
