Ibanez AZS2209B Prestige Black Electric Guitar with Case

General

Just as high-end but more generously-priced than most custom models, the TE-style Prestige Series AZS2209B by Ibanez offers players maximum comfort and build quality. While this AZS guitar shares a lot of the same characteristics as the popular AZ models, the subtly rounded, single-cut body will even please the most hardcore of TE-fanatics. In addition to a comfortable body, Ibanez have rigged out the AZS2209H with a bolt-on AZ neck with an Oval C profile, which has been carved from Roasted S-Tech treated maple to ensure exceptional stability.

The Ibanez Prestige AZS2209B: Tight Sound

To match the slick feel of the oiled neck and traditional 12 inch fretboard radius, this pro-grade Ibanez axe offers the smooth playability of twenty-two Prestige Fret Edge-treated, stainless steel jumbo frets, while the alder body lays down an immediately solid foundation sound. As a result, the AZS2209H packs bright trebles framed by tight basses, ample sustain and supreme note definition.

Alnico II Pro, Magic Touch Mini & dyna-MIX5 Switching System

To ensure this electric AZS model sounds strikingly modern when plugged in, Ibanez have gone with a two-part Seymour Duncan SH pickup configuration. The Alnico II Pro single-coil at the bridge whips up bright and twangy, mid-range-rich tone, while the Magic Touch mini humbucker mounted at the neck fills out the sound with ample, high-end definition. Next to the three-way switch and volume and tone pots, you can flip the special Alter Switch to toggle through two additional, serial-switched sounds. Lastly, so you can keep it fully protected during transport, Ibanez wrap this Prestige Series solid-body up in a robust hard-shell case.
