Ibanez  AZ42P1 American Basswood Body Electric Guitar with HH Pickups and Rosewood Fingerboard

A Versatile AZ Series Axe
From its classic aesthetics to its excellent playability and deluxe appointments, the Ibanez AZ42P1 is a sophisticated entry into the Ibanez AZ lineup. It features a comfortable roasted maple neck and fingerboard for a hearty tone with plenty of snap, along with a sonically balanced basswood body. Two Seymour Duncan pickups in an HH configuration have a vintage vibe with modern clarity, perfect for chunky power chords, slow-hand-inspired leads, or virtuosic soloing.

Rosewood fretboard
Rosewood provides a well-balanced solid tone with a focused mid range.

Gotoh® MG-T locking machine heads
The Gotoh® MG-T locking machine heads achieve incredible tuning stability, cutting down string-changing time.

Oval C Roasted Maple neck
Heat-treatment increases the wood's stability, durability, water resistance and tolerance of temperature changes.

Gotoh® T1502 tremolo bridge
The T1502 tremolo bridge features steel saddles and a die-cast zinc tremolo block for a quick response and improved articulation. The 10.5mm string spacing allows for easy picking across strings and its snap-in construction makes it easy to load a tremolo arm.

dyna-MIX10 switching system with Alter Switch
The dyna-MIX 10 offers ten sound variations and can easily switch from humbucker and single coil modes with the mini switch. The power Tap mode provides a realistic single coil sound despite its two humbucker pickup layout.

Seymour Duncan® Hyperion™ Pickups
Seymour Duncan® Hyperion™ Pickups feature a moderate output through Alnico-5 magnets to keep the clarity of the fundamental tone when using a distortion sound, and to deliver a clear pick attack. From treble to bass, the overall tonal balance is evenly adjusted., and works well with various effect pedals.
