The AZ Series: Ibanez's "Do-It-All" Vision at the Prestige Level
Developed to meet the needs of modern guitarists, the AZ series has established itself as a benchmark for versatile electric guitars: ergonomics, accuracy, stability, and a very wide tonal palette. The Ibanez AZ2407F is positioned in the high-end range with meticulous craftsmanship and premium hardware, combining a flamed maple top for attack and a basswood body for balance. The result: a reliable platform, equally at ease in the studio or on tour.
For Which Guitarists and Styles?
This guitar is aimed at intermediate to professional players seeking a unique instrument capable of covering various genres: pop, funk, rock, fusion, modern metal, and session work. The intermediate positions offer sharp and "snappy" clean tones for rhythm, while the humbuckers deliver full saturations and singing solos. Its playing comfort and tuning stability make it a serious partner for live performances.
Tone
The AZ2407F features a passive DiMarzio pickup set with Alnico magnets: Air Norton at the neck for defined smoothness, True Velvet in the middle for articulated cleans, and The Tone Zone at the bridge for a muscular grain with natural compression ideal for riffs and leads. The 5-position selector uses autosplit in positions 2 and 4 to achieve single-coil-style tones that are precise and bright without losing volume balance.
Regarding woods, the basswood provides a homogeneous midrange that is easy to sculpt in the mix, while the flamed maple top adds attack and definition. The Gotoh T1502S tremolo (steel saddles and block) supports response and sustain, and the S-TECH neck/fretboard with stainless steel frets enhances note clarity, intonation stability, and smooth feel, especially on bends.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
The guitar comes equipped with D'Addario XL110 10-46 strings, and staying with this gauge is a safe choice to maintain original tension and feel. A solid-body electric guitar floor stand and a microfiber cloth effectively complement daily maintenance and security.
