Ibanez FRH20QMN Low Gloss Electro Classical Nylon Cosmic Blue Starburst

The Ibanez FRH20QMN is a stage-ready nylon-string hybrid that feels instantly familiar to electric players. A thin, compact FR hollow body with fan bracing pairs with a comfy 46 mm nut and 400 mm radius, giving slick fretting and superb upper-fret access. With no front sound hole the design naturally tamps down feedback, while a side sound port lets you hear your tone more clearly as you play

Plug in and go with the Ibanez undersaddle pickup and AEQ210T preamp, offering volume, bass, treble, a handy tuner and a phase switch for quick feedback control. Quilted maple on top and sapele back and sides serve up a warm, articulate voice, and the satin low-gloss Cosmic Blue Starburst finish looks killer under lights. It’s a modern nylon that’s easy to play, easy to mix, and built for the stage as much as the sofa

Electric-friendly feel

The FRH20QMN is built to feel familiar straight away if you’re coming from electric. A slim, set-in neck with a comfy 46 mm nut and a 400 mm radius keeps chord shapes tidy and single-note lines smooth. The thin, compact body sits close, and the high-fret access is effortless, so nylon tones don’t mean sacrificing speed or control

Quiet, feedback-resistant body

A modified FR hollow body with classical-style fan bracing delivers the warm, natural response you expect from nylon, but without the howl. There’s no front sound hole, which helps tame feedback on loud stages. A side sound port projects the acoustic detail up to you, so you hear more of your playing and can dig in with confidence

Stage-ready electronics

Plug in and get a clear, mix-friendly sound via the Ibanez undersaddle pickup and AEQ210T preamp. Find your sound easily with volume, bass and treble controls, use the onboard tuner for fast tweaks between songs, and hit the phase switch when you need extra feedback control. A simple 1/4″ output keeps the setup fuss-free for gigs, rehearsals and sessions

Tonewoods and finish

A quilted maple top brings eye-catching grain and a touch of snap, while sapele back and sides add warmth and rounded mids. The nyatoh neck and rosewood fretboard feel smooth and stable, with bone nut and saddle for reliable intonation and sustain. Gold classical tuners add an elegant touch, and the Cosmic Blue Starburst low gloss finish looks fantastic under stage lights
