Welcoming yet another expansion to the highly successful AZ series, Ibanez is proud to introduce the AZES or AZ Essentials line. The philosophy behind this series is to bring the tone, versatility and, playability of this celebrated lineup to a wider array of beginner and intermediate players. However, AZ Essentials are also equipped with series-specific features such as a Mono-unit output jack, a 250mm fingerboard radius, and Comfort round bridge saddles, all designed to make the beginner’s learning process a streamlined, enjoyable, and fun experience.
The Ibanez AZES Electric Guitar is ready to set a new standard for entry-level instruments by offering stage-ready playability, electronic bells and whistles, and a price that is attractive. It was designed in collaboration with Tomo Fujita, a professor of guitar at Berklee College of Music and a guitarist who teaches on YouTube. All of it starts with a body made of poplar. The maple neck has a distinctive snap and sustain, and the jatoba fingerboard has a playability that is silky smooth.
Utilizing these powerful tonewoods will undoubtedly benefit beginners, allowing them to spend more time practicing beloved riffs and less time battling with the instrument to get it to feel just right. Sweetwater's gigging guitarists are blown away by the quality of the AZES's onboard electronics, which include Ibanez's dyna-MIX9 switching system and an HSS pickup combination that can produce both single-coil and humbucker sounds. The Ibanez AZES is an unprecedented beginner-grade instrument with impressive electronics and woods.
