Part of the trusted Ibanez acoustic bass range, this model is ideal for unplugged sessions, live acoustic gigs, songwriting, recording, and practice.
Built with an open pore natural finish, the PCBE12MH-OPN features a lightweight okoume top, back, and sides that deliver a rich, woody tonal character with excellent warmth and projection. Whether played softly with fingerstyle technique or more aggressively for rhythmic groove playing, this acoustic bass responds with clarity, depth, and balanced low-end presence.

Equipped with Ibanez’s undersaddle pickup system and the AEQ-2T preamp with onboard tuner, the Ibanez PCBE12MH-OPN Mahogany Acoustic Bass delivers accurate, natural-sounding amplification. Players can easily shape their tone using onboard bass and treble controls, while the built-in tuner allows quick, silent tuning even without plugging into an amplifier. This makes it a highly practical acoustic bass guitar for stage and studio use.
The laurel bridge efficiently transfers string vibration into the body, enhancing natural sustain and warmth. Combined with chrome die-cast tuners and factory-fitted carbon-coated strings, the instrument offers stable tuning, reliable performance, and long-lasting durability.
