TheIbanez Prestige AZ2204NW-VR Vermillion Redcombines the AZ design optimized for modern playing techniques with a special focus on traditionalVintagesounds. In addition to the ergonomically shaped alder body, the electric guitar features a bolt-on “AZ Oval C” neck made from S-TechWoodroasted maple and a rosewood fingerboard with stainless steel fretting in jumbo format. An HSS pickup setup with threeSeymour DuncanFortuna pickups specially developed for the AZ series provides finely resolved vintage tones with lively dynamics on the guitar amplifier, while the clever dyna-MIX9 circuit makes a wide range of tones available. Of course, Ibanez completes the Prestige AZ2204NW electric guitar with high-qualityHardwarein the form of a Gotoh T1702B tremolo system and tuning-stable Gotoh Magnum Lock H.A.P. tuners.
AZ guitar with agile handling
For the optimizedbolt-on constructionof the Prestige AZ2204NW, Ibanez not only relies on first-class tonewoods that promise a lively sound, but also on extensive adaptations to complex, contemporary playing techniques. While thealder bodypromises a snug playing position and easy handling both on the strap and on the thigh thanks to the generous contours on the front and back, thefluidly designed Super All Access Neck Jointguarantees unhindered access to the highest registers. Thanks to the pleasantly flat and rounded”AZ Oval C”, thebolt-on neck made of S-TechWoodRoasted Maplesits comfortably in the hand, so that any solo or riff can be performed with ease on therosewood fingerboard with compound radius. Virtually wear-freejumbo stainless steel frets with Prestige Fret Edge Treatmentand perfectly rounded ends also allow every bend to glide smoothly and as if on rails.
Seymour Duncan Fortuna single coils
The electric sound conversion of the Prestige AZ2204NW electric guitar is handled by a traditionalHSS pickup setup with two Fortuna single coils and a Fortuna humbuckerfrom Californian pickup guruSeymour Duncan, which was developed exclusively for the Ibanez AZ series. Traditionally equipped with classicAlnico magnetsand a particularlymoderate output, the three classically built pickups elicit authentic vintage sounds of the highest quality from the guitar amplifier. With a sensitive response and a finely balanced sound that combines deep, but never undefined bass with brilliant highs and the vocal mid-range spectrum of the bridge humbucker, the Fortuna single coils capture every nuance of the game and are not only suitable for glassy cleans, but also for wonderfully singing overdrive sounds.
Flexible dyna-MIX9 circuit
Ibanez has equipped the AZ2204NW-VR Vermillion Red with a cleverdyna-MIX9 circuitto provide the widest possible sound palette on the guitar amplifier. While the5-way blade switchcalls up the threeSeymour DuncanFortuna pickups individually and in the familiar combinations, theAlter Switchexpands the repertoire with a wide range ofsplit options for the humbuckerandparallel switching of the single coils. Generalvolume and tone potsalso allow you to adjust your personal sound.
High-qualityHardwarefrom Gotoh
Last but not least, Ibanez completes the Prestige AZ2204NW-VR Vermillion Red with high-quality add-on parts that are perfectly tailored to the demands of modern guitarists. Equipped withfive springsandset to rest firmly on the body, theGotoh T1702B 2-point tremolosupports the lively vintage sound character of the electric guitar, but also enables smooth down-bending for harmonic tone embellishments.Six brass string saddleswith generous adjustment travel also guarantee precise intonation and comfortable string action, even when using alternative tunings. At the headstock, abone nutguides the strings with a straight course to the precise and tuning-stableGotoh Magnum Lock H.A.P. machine heads, whoseheight-adjustable winding axlesallow precise adjustment of the contact pressure of the strings on the nut.
