WAYS TO PAY:
Ibanez builds guitars for players of all levels - from beginners to the most demanding masters of the instrument. Regardless of price, Ibanez always strives to offer the absolute best sound, style, and playability in its class. The Standard series incorporates all the staples the Ibanez brand is famous for, such as fast necks and high-octane distortion in a package that is available and accessible to most players.
The AZES40 features a poplar body and has a maple neck with a Jatoba fingerboard & white dots inlays. Its 25-inch scale length means it's just slightly shorter than your average electric, which is ideal for young learners or those who just prefer a more compact feel.
Pickups include an Accord Humbucker - passive/ceramic on the bridge and a pair of Ibanez Essentials ceramic single coils, on the middle and neck, routed to Strat-style controls. With the Alter switch turned on, you get access to series-connected voices and more. Also include is a T106 tremolo with comfort round steel saddles.
Maple neck
The Maple neck provides stability and bright tonal character.
Jatoba fretboard
Jatoba has a reddish brown colour and produces a rich mid range with a crisp high end.
Medium frets
Medium sized frets enhance the accuracy of your notes.
Poplar body
Poplar used as body wood delivers a well-balanced tone with incredible thickness.
Ibanez machineheads w/ Split-shaft
These tuners feature die-cast housings and split-shafts. The die-cast housing offers protection from dusts and ease of tuning and the split-shaft makes it easy to change the strings.
25 inch scale
AZES guitars feature a 25" scale length, which makes for an easier playing instrument for children and players of smaller stature. Additionally, as the 25", medium scale is also large enough that the player can continue to grow with the instrument as they mature as a guitarist.
250mm fretboard radius
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.
Mono-unit output jack
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.
All Access Neck Joint
All Access Neck Joint offers superior playability at the high frets.
Essentials / Accord S-S-H pickups
Essentials and Accord pickups provide well-balanced tone and as well as versatility, so that guitar players can enjoy various styles of music with just one instrument.
T106 tremolo w/ Comfort round Steel saddles
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.
dyna-MIX9 switching system with Alter Switch
The dyna-MIX 9 offers nine sound variations and can switch between humbucker and single coil modes with just a flick of the mini switch. One mode even simulates a humbucking sound from the combination of two single coil pickups.
