The AW1051CE is an Artwood series acoustic/electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in late 2020. It is made in China.

The AW1051CE features a dreadnought body shape with a Venetian cutaway and a laminated Sitka spruce top on okoume back and sides with a gloss finish. The round soundhole has an abalone and wood rosette. The nyatoh neck has a 20-fret ovangkol fingerboard with small white dot position markers. Components include a compensated bone saddle in an ovangkol bridge with black Ibanez Advantage bridge pins, a bone nut, and chrome Ibanez tuning machines. Electronics consist of a Ibanez T-bar undersaddle pickup and a piezo pickup attached to the neck block connected to an Ibanez AEQ-TP2 preamp with onboard tuner powered by a 9V battery, and balanced XLR and ¼" outputs.

The AW1051CE was discontinued after 2022.
