Oval C Roasted Maple neck

The Roasted Maple neck is heat-treated to increase stability, durability, moisture resistance and tolerance of temperature changes.

Roasted Maple fretboard

Heat-treatment provides a well-balanced attack and tone and a rich sustain. In order to achieve supreme neck grip comfort, the fretboard edge is finished with a smooth curve.

Jumbo Stainless Steel frets

Stainless steel frets boast excellent corrosion resistance. The wide and tall fret-type offers a quick response and effortless articulation when playing chords and clear tone when playing single notes.

Quilted Maple top / American Basswood body

The Quilted Maple top sonically enriches the response for picking and the American Basswood body delivers a natural and flat tone.

Seymour Duncan® Hyperion™ S-S-H pickups

Seymour Duncan® Hyperion™ Pickups feature a moderate output through Alnico-5 magnets to keep the clarity of the fundamental tone when using distortion and to deliver a clear pick attack. From treble to bass, the overall tonal balance is evenly adjusted and works well with various effect pedals.

Gotoh® MG-T locking machine heads

The Gotoh® MG-T locking machine heads achieve incredible tuning stability, cutting down string-changing time.

Gotoh® T1502 tremolo

The T1502 tremolo bridge features steel saddles and a die-cast zinc tremolo block for a quick response and improved articulation. The 10.5mm string spacing allows for easy picking across strings and its snap-in construction makes it easy to load a tremolo arm.

dyna-MIX9 switching system with Alter Switch

The dyna-MIX 9 offers nine sound variations and can switch between humbucker and single coil modes with just a flick of the mini switch.  One mode even simulates a humbucking sound from the combination of two single coil pickups.

Luminescent side dots

The luminescent side dot position marks make it easy for players to see fretboard position marks when performing on dark stages.

Gig bag included

It comes with Ibanez gig bag which is designed specifically to fit and protect this instrument.

Super All Access Neck Joint

The Super All Access Neck Joint increases playability and allows for easy access to the higher frets.

Ergonomic rear body contour

A shallow body back contour and a big forearm contour make the guitar body fit the player naturally, thus increasing playing comfort. The AZ body has a deep waist and different radii on each body edge curve, making it easier to play in both standing or sitting positions.
