Ibanez Euphoria
The Ibanez Euphoria is a pleasure to play. The neck is nicely proportioned, the fretwork clean and the body dimensions comfortable. The cutaway allows for exceptional access to higher frets, though the short-fingered will have to stretch to hit the highest E. Any player who hungers to express a range of emotions in a variety of styles with speed, tone, clarity and power should put the Euphoria on his or her “must play” list. The Ibanez Euphoria comes equipped with a relatively traditional Fishman Acoustic Matrix bridge pickup that is augmented by a customized version of the company’s powerful Aura digital guitar modeling system. This imitates the sound of the guitar when played through various classic microphones. The Aura’s tweaking controls include rotary Volume, Image Select (to choose one of six microphone models), a three-band EQ and a blend slider that balances the Aura and the bridge-mounted piezo.
I don’ know how Ibanez did it, but Euphoria sounds bright, even the strings are not changed for a long time. A natural acoustic sound not very powerful, but it`s clear and really plentiful. Furthermore, the neck is very handy and convenient to fast playing. Also, Euphoria has wonderful looks, like all Steve Vai Signature models.
Probably, that`s hard to find this model on the market today. There are many Ibanez acoustic guitars available, which are worth trying them to play. I dare to recommend Ibanez guitars, many of them are worth an asked price.
I was made a short test recording, for compare my guitars sound.
Here are connected via cable to the sound card 3 guitars:
