Roasted Maple Neck for Stability and Comfort
The AZ26P1's oval C-shape roasted maple neck is designed for superior playability and reliability. Ibanez's innovative roasting process enhances stability and resistance to temperature changes, ensuring consistent performance. The neck's ergonomic shape fits naturally in the hand, making intricate chord work and fast runs feel effortless. The ebony fretboard adds clarity and articulation, while jumbo stainless-steel frets with Ibanez's premium edge treatment provide smooth, comfortable playability. Whether you're bending notes, tapping or sweeping across the fretboard, this neck responds with precision and ease. Combined with the Super All Access neck joint, upper-fret access is seamless, giving you complete control over every note.
Seymour Duncan Hyperion Pickups With dyna-MIX9 Switching
Utilizing a versatile HSS configuration, the AZ26P1's Seymour Duncan Hyperion pickups deliver a wide tonal range with exceptional clarity. Built with alnico-5 magnets, these pickups retain definition even under high gain, making them perfect for both expressive clean tones and aggressive distortion. The dyna-MIX9 switching system adds an astounding nine pickup combinations, allowing you to switch between humbucker and single-coil sounds instantly. Whether you're looking for smooth jazz tones, crunchy rock riffs or searing leads, the Ibanez AZ26P1 provides endless sonic possibilities, ensuring you always have the right sound at your fingertips.
Gotoh T1502 Tremolo for Expressive Performance
The Gotoh T1502 tremolo bridge is built for smooth, controlled vibrato and rock-solid tuning stability. Its steel saddles and die-cast zinc tremolo block enhance string vibration transfer, improving sustain and articulation. The 10.5 mm string spacing ensures precise picking response, while the snap-in tremolo arm allows effortless pitch control. Whether adding subtle shimmer or digging into extreme dive bombs, this bridge performs flawlessly. Gotoh MG-T locking tuners complement the system, keeping your strings secure and in tune even during heavy tremolo use. With this setup, you can explore dynamic playing techniques with confidence, knowing your guitar will stay in tune.
Ergonomic Design and Premium Appointments
