{"product_id":"804345","title":"Ibanez Premium AZ427P2QM-TUB (Twilight Blue Burst) [Special Price]","description":"Brand new, slightly damaged, super special price!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e AZ PremiumModel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The AZ Premium: The standard model for the new generation of guitarists.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ◆AZ Oval C Roasted Maple neck \u0026amp; Rosewood fretboard\u003cbr\u003e The neck is made of heat-treated maple wood.\u003cbr\u003e Heat treatment can be expected to improve shape stability, resistance to warping, water resistance, and resistance to temperature changes.\u003cbr\u003e After several prototypes and tests, we concluded that a neck thickness of 20.5*22.5 (at 1F*12F) is the best.\u003cbr\u003e The back of the neck has a satin finish, ensuring a smooth playing experience.\u003cbr\u003e The fretboard is made of rosewood, which is characterized by its resonant, mild midrange sound.\u003cbr\u003e Regarding the neck shape, it's an original design that was perfected after measuring and analyzing dozens of guitar neck grips, both from our own company and other manufacturers.\u003cbr\u003e This comfort grip features a smooth, rounded shape from the joint between the fretboard and neck down to the fretboard edge.\u003cbr\u003e The shape is precisely reproduced using ball milling.\u003cbr\u003e The neck width is set at 47mm at the nut and 66mm at the last fret, with a shape that is particularly designed for ease of gripping in the lower fret area and for classical style playing with the thumb placed on the back of the neck in the higher fret area.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ◆Jumbo Stainless Frets \u0026amp; Luminescent side dot inlay\u003cbr\u003e With the goal of ensuring that the strings don't get muffled even with large-range bends and that chord work doesn't cause stress on the fingers or hands, we incorporated several challenges, including the combination with the neck, into several prototypes and arrived at this 305mmR fingerboard after much trial and error.\u003cbr\u003e The frets are made of stainless steel with a crown height of 1.4mm and a width of 2.7mm, and a hardness of 220. They offer excellent maintainability, a quick attack, good note separation when playing chords, and a clear sound when playing individual notes.\u003cbr\u003e It features a jumbo size, which allows for light touch fingering and is excellent for playing fast passages and smooth bending.\u003cbr\u003e Furthermore, it features highly visible 3.0mm diameter phosphorescent dot position markers that adapt to rapidly changing performance environments due to lighting and other factors. You won't lose sight of the notes you want to play, even on a dark stage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ◆Alter switch for dyna-MIX 10 wiring\u003cbr\u003e With a single flick of the mini-switch, you can freely switch between humbucker and single-coil modes, allowing you to play 10 different sound variations.\u003cbr\u003e This switches to Power Tap mode, which delivers a realistic single-coil sound. One coil is tapped, and the other coil is wired to enhance its low frequencies, resulting in a clear high-frequency range and a thick, well-defined sound that cannot be achieved with simple tapping.\u003cbr\u003e This switching system is ideal for modern guitar players who need to perform multiple roles with limited equipment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ◆Seymour Duncan×Ibanez collaboration pickups “Hyperion 7”\u003cbr\u003e We obtained dozens of different pickups and measured the frequency characteristics of all of them. From those, we determined the specifications and sound image of the pickup that we thought was best suited for the AZ, and created this AZ-exclusive pickup in collaboration with Seymour Duncan, a pickup brand with a long history and a reputation for continuing to innovate.\u003cbr\u003e These custom pickups are designed to retain some of the original clean tone even when distorted, with a slightly reduced output across the board, prioritizing picking responsiveness and accuracy.\u003cbr\u003e We prioritized overall balance, from the treble to the bass, and even the tone of each string from the 1st to the 7th, while also striving for excellent effect response. Alnico-5 magnets are used.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ◆A shallow body back contour \u0026amp; Super All Access Neck Joint\u003cbr\u003e This is an original body shape designed with a contemporary aesthetic in mind.\u003cbr\u003e The thin body contour and large elbow contour, reminiscent of Ibanez's flagship S model, create a sense of unity between the player and the guitar, greatly contributing to improved playability.\u003cbr\u003e The deeper waist of the body improves handling when held and on stage, resulting in superior playability.\u003cbr\u003e The body has different corner radii on the front and back, with a radius of R3mm on the front and R8mm on the back, resulting in an ergonomic design that provides a comfortable fit the moment you pick up the guitar, whether sitting or standing.\u003cbr\u003e It features a SuperAll Access Neck Joint, which achieves high playability by carving an 8mm height difference from the back of the body and finishing the neck joint with a spherical surface.\u003cbr\u003e The bass string side features a shallower cutaway, maximizing the contact area between the body and neck. This design maintains high playability while simultaneously achieving excellent sustain and resonance. Furthermore, the horn and cutaway have a deeply sculpted shape reminiscent of Ibanez's flagship RG model, ensuring ease of playing in the higher positions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ◆Gotoh T1572S tremolo bridge with Steel saddles 10.5mm string spacing Snap and hold arm socket\u003cbr\u003e The GOTOH 510 bridge, widely regarded by many players and brands as the definitive tremolo bridge, has been reborn through a collaboration between Ibanez and GOTOH.\u003cbr\u003e Featuring machined steel saddles and a zinc die-cast inertia block for quick response and a tight sound, this guitar also boasts excellent note separation during chord work.\u003cbr\u003e The string spacing is a narrow 10.5mm, designed to make it easier to pick across strings, a feature demanded by players who frequently use string skipping and hybrid picking.\u003cbr\u003e Furthermore, it features an arm socket that allows the use of the Ibanez Edge tremolo arm and the Ultra Light Tremolo Arm (carbon fiber\/UTA20\/sold separately).\u003cbr\u003e Unlike conventional tonearms that require twisting, this tonearm can be attached with a snap-in mechanism. It also features an arm torque adjustment mechanism that allows players to fix or release the arm angle according to their preference.\u003cbr\u003e In addition, it comes standard with a stud lock mechanism that firmly secures the studs with grub screws embedded in them, greatly contributing to tuning stability and resonance.\u003cbr\u003e It employs a two-point floating support system that allows for smooth arming and arm-up movements.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ◆Gotoh MG-T locking machine heads\u003cbr\u003e To enhance the convenience of string changes, we've adopted Gotoh MG-T locking machine heads, which are renowned for their tuning stability.\u003cbr\u003e The design allows you to easily lock the strings through the post holes by turning a dial with your finger.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ◆Graph Tech tu\u003cbr\u003e It features a Graph Tech nut, which boasts smooth tuning stability. It achieves both a clear sound and excellent sustain.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e *The image is a sample.
