Ibanez AZ Essentials AZES40-PRB Purist Blue Electric Guitar

General

Considerately designed for the student guitarist, the sleek playing comfort and flexible tone of the Ibanez AZ-Essentials AZES40 electric guitar is also fully primed for more advanced guitarists. The shorter than standard 25 inch scale length pulls the frets a little closer together to ease reach and reduce string tension for a much lighter feel beneath the fret-hand, making gripping notes and chords much easier. Meanwhile, the mounted F106 tremolo bridge has been finished with a set of newly-designed rounded saddles to offer extra playing comfort and can be fully adjusted for a more personalised setup. This is topped off by the 'all-access neck joint' which places each of the 22 medium-frets within easy reach, and a set of smooth-tuning Ibanez split-shaft machine heads.

The Ibanez AZ Essentials AZES40: Far-Reaching Sound

The foundation of the Ibanez AZES40 is laid down by an ergonomically shaped body carved from lightweight poplar and loaded with a meaty HSS pickup configuration, where two single-coils take up the neck and middle positions, and a thick humbucker sits at the bridge. This is supported by Ibanez's own advanced dyna-MIX9 switching system complete with Alter Switch, granting you unlimited access to no less than nine different guitar sounds that can be tweaked to back up a vast range of different genres and playing styles. Engage the single-coils to shape sparkling cleans and sultry blues or indie-style tone, or activate the Accord humbucker to unleash solid, rock-worthy sound.
