Ibanez produced the AVD11ANS as part of the Artwood Vintage series, a line positioned around vintage-informed acoustic construction. The AVD11ANS occupied the dreadnought slot in that series, finished in an Antique Natural Semi-Gloss.
The top is Thermo Aged Solid Caucasian Spruce braced with Thermo Aged Spruce X bracing, paired with Okoume back and sides. The Nyatoh neck carries a Soft-V profile and meets an Ovangkol fretboard across 20 frets, with a 651mm scale length, a 43mm nut width, and a 400mm radius. Nut and saddle are both unbleached oil-impregnated bone. The Ovangkol bridge is fitted with Ibanez Advantage bridge pins and strung from the factory with D'Addario XTAPB1253 strings gauged .012–.053 at standard tuning. Tortoiseshell body binding, herringbone top purfling, a wooden multi-ring soundhole rosette, and Gold Mother of Pearl dot inlays are the principal cosmetic details. Tuning machines are Antique Chrome with oval knobs.
Owners sourcing replacement parts — bone nuts, saddles, bridge pins, or tuning machines — should verify dimensions against the specifications above before ordering, and consult a qualified luthier or guitar technician for setup, nut fitting, or any structural work.
STRAIGHT TALK
What Stands Out
Keep In Mind
From the people who own them
Nothing in The Vault is for sale. These records exist so the instruments stay documented after the manufacturer moves on — and the most useful part of that record is what owners add to it.
Owner photos
Put yours on the record.
The catalog shot showed one finish, under one light, a long time ago. Yours has been played. Photos from owners are what the next person finds when they are trying to identify a part, match a finish, or work out whether the one they just bought is really what the seller said it was.
What do you know about this one?
Specs only go so far. What actually fits, what breaks first, what the factory got right and what everyone ends up changing — that lives with the people who own them, not in a datasheet. Post what you know and it stays on this page for whoever comes looking next.
