Bensalem – Smaller scale instruments have increased in popularity over the past few years as students seem to be starting younger than ever, and the easy-to-transport guitar has become recognized as an excellent traveling companion. Spurred by these trends, Ibanez has introduced the EWP14EOPN, a 1/3-size, steel string piccolo acoustic with an EW style cutaway body. Similar in scale to a Baritone ukulele (20”), the EWP14E features top, back, and sides made from Ovangkol, a wood known for its beautiful figuring and Rosewood-like tone. An open pore Natural finish allows the body to resonate more freely for improved tone and projection. Other features include an Abalone rosette, Rosewood fretboard & bridge, and chrome die-cast tuners. To optimize string tension, intonation, and tone, the EWP14E is tuned in the key of A (A, D, G, C, E, A), up a fourth from standard tuning.
