The soundhole is round with an abalone rosette and a red tortoise pickguard. It has a satin finished nyatoh neck with a wide, 20-fret ovangkol fingerboard with black binding and 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 die-cast tuning machines.

The AW1040CE is a similar model with a different preamp. The AW54CE is a related model with a laurel fretboard among some other differences.
