Ibanez AZ Essential AZES31 Electric Guitar - Arctic Ocean Metallic

banez 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 single-piece 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 Maple neck provides stability and bright tonal character.  The Jatoba fretboard has a reddish brown color and produces a rich midrange with a crisp high end.  Medium sized frets enhance the accuracy of your notes.  Poplar used as body wood delivers a well-balanced tone with incredible thickness.  AZES guitars feature a 25" scale length, which makes for an easier playing instrument for children and players of smaller stature, while also large enough for adults to enjoy.  The 250mm fretboard radius is not too flat, not too round, and makes for an excellent choice for the first-time player. This radius is a great middle ground that allows for learning to play each note correctly, while still maintaining a high degree of comfort. 

The mono-unit output jack is made of solid, durable material and is a single piece to avoid unwanted movement and loosening of the jack, which leads to contact failure or disconnection. This innovation allows for long term playing enjoyment and minimal maintenance.

This T106 bridge is equipped with newly developed comfort round Steel saddles. Its construction provides wider range of height adjustment and ease of setting up. Additionally, the screws are less likely to stick out, leading to less stress on your strumming hand and better playing comfort.
