If I had a dollar for every time I've written about how trade shows are terrible places to audition guitars, I'd probably owe someone twelve bucks.

Instead of trying to decipher what that last paragraph is supposed to mean, why not take a look -- if not a listen -- to this Winter NAMM coverage of the new Ibanez Ambience Series acoustic-electric guitars. While Owen does attempt to share with you the tone of these new acoustic axes, you're just going to have to take his word on how they sound. I blame Paul Gilbert.
