The PF16WCE features a dreadnought body with a Venetian cutaway constructed of a laminated spruce top on laminated okume sides and back with a high gloss finish. The round soundhole has an acrylic pearloid rosette and a red tortoise pickguard. The nyatoh neck meets the body at the 14th fret and has a wide 20-fret laurel fingerboard with ivory binding and small white dot position markers. Components include a compensated plastic saddle in a laurel bridge with ivory Ibanez Advantage bridge pins, a plastic nut, and Ibanez chrome open gear tuning machines with half moon buttons.
The electronics consist of an Ibanez under saddle pickup connected to an AEQ-2T preamp with on-board tuner powered by a 9V battery and feeding a 1/4″ stereo output jack.
