Description
Ibanez AZ Series Premium AZ24P1QM DOB Electric Guitar
Taking adaptability to new extremes, the AZ series has made itself known as a guitar range that is perfect for everything from the warmest blues licks to the most intense, shred-heavy metal riffs.
Oval “C” Roasted Maple Neck
The Roasted Maple neck is heat-treated to increase stability, durability, moisture resistance, and tolerance to temperature changes. The heat treatment provides a well-balanced attack and tone and rich sustain. To achieve supreme neck grip comfort, the fretboard edge is finished with a smooth curve.
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.
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.
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.
Key Features
- 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 a clear tone when playing single notes.

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