Description

The Ibanez AZ2402 Prestige electric guitar represents the zenith of the company’s esteemed AZ line, fusing cutting-edge innovation with time-honored craftsmanship. This versatile electric guitar is engineered to deliver premium tone and uncompromising playability, empowering musical expression across any genre. Exceptionally varied pickup switching and a carefully formulated design—boasting both old- and new-school feel—make this instrument a true workhorse. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or an aspiring virtuoso, the AZ2402 Prestige will inspire you to explore sounds and styles beyond your comfort zone.

Ibanez AZ2402 Prestige Alder Body

Balanced Tone From the Alder AZ Body

Bringing the AZ2402’s versatile voice to life is an alder body that delivers a well-balanced, resonant tone. Alder is renowned for its warm, punchy midrange that cuts through any mix with authority. At the same time, it produces a bright, articulate top end, and a tight low end with exceptional sustain. Whether you’re crunching out power chords or finessing intricate lead lines, the AZ2402 Prestige’s alder body will translate your technique with remarkable clarity and expression.

Ibanez AZ2402 Prestige S-TECH Roasted Maple Neck

S-TECH Roasted Maple Neck and Fretboard

The nucleus of the AZ2402 Prestige’s playability is its S-TECH roasted maple neck and fretboard. This advanced treatment enhances the wood’s stability, durability and resistance to temperature fluctuations. The result is a neck that feels remarkably comfortable and broken-in right out of the case, and taking this guitar on the road yields fewer neck adjustments across unpredictable climates. The fingerboard’s smooth, curved edges provide an incredibly natural grip, allowing your fingers to glide effortlessly across the jumbo stainless steel frets. Plus, the Ibanez AZ2402’s special Prestige fret-edge treatment adds another premium touch of craftsmanship, further lending itself to unrivaled playability and lightning-fast transitions.

Ibanez AZ2402 Prestige Seymour Duncan Hyperion Pickups

Duncan Hyperion Humbuckers With dyna-MIX10

Versatility is the name of the game when it comes to the Seymour Duncan Hyperion humbuckers found in the Ibanez AZ2402 Prestige. These Alnico V pickups have a moderate output that retains note clarity when driving high-gain amps for crunchy or saturated riffs. But they also possess a balanced EQ curve that lets single notes sing for chimey cleans and throaty split-coil sounds. The dyna-MIX10 system takes this sonic flexibility even further, providing 10 different pickup combinations via the 2-way Alter Switch and standard 5-way blade selector. Easily dial in everything from glassy cleans to scorching leads, and chart undiscovered tonal territory at the flip of a switch.

Ibanez AZ2402 Prestige Gotoh Hardware

Gotoh Hardware for Precise Performance

The Ibanez AZ2402 Prestige doesn’t overlook any detail, equipping you with premium Gotoh hardware for precise, stable performance. The T1802 tremolo bridge features machined titanium saddles and a steel block, delivering lightning-fast response and sustain that seems to go on forever. Gotoh Magnum Lock tuners with H.A.P. (Height Adjustable Posts) ensure rock-solid intonation and promote easy string changes on the fly. Together, these Gotoh components round out the AZ2402 Prestige’s superior craftsmanship and attention to detail.
