The AVT1 is an Artwood Vintage series acoustic tenor guitar model introduced by Ibanez for 2014. It was made in China.
The AVT1 features a parlor 2 body shape with a solid Sitka spruce top on mahogany back and sides with a high gloss finish. The soundhole is round with a black and white multi rosette and the top is bordered with a black and white multi binding. It has a satin finished mahogany neck with a 20-fret rosewood fingerboard with white dot position markers.
