Ibanez AZ242F-TSG Premium Seymour Duncan Guitar Tequila Sunrise Gradation. The AZ Premium series is a serious contender in a field of boutique guitars costing much more.
It represents modern choices such as a roasted maple neck with oval C profile, stainless steel frets, Gotoh Magnum Lock tuners and tremolo bridge. The Hyperion pickups are wound by Seymour Duncan around Alnico-5 magnets for a tuneful, moderate output and deliver balanced response that is wide enough for your cleans and focused enough for your dirt. The guitar conveys meticulous attention to detail, a nod to the past with its vintage Ibanez logo, and an eye on todays players with its accessible headstock shape and modern appointments. This particular instrument has a buff-through in the finish color behind the bridge from the factory.There are also a couple of small dings or scuffs on the edge of the headstock. We have included close up photos of each imperfection. Aside from what we have described, this instrument is in mint condition. We have given this fine instrument a full check and setup to make sure it is playing its absolute best for you. We have the action low and fast up and down the 24-fret baked maple board, without buzz.
Frets are level and the oval C neck is very comfortable in the hand and speaks directly to the player who is looking more for a soul machine and less for a shredder. Thats really the intention of this guitar from the ground up, while retaining enough innovation to give it an edge in a vintage-inspired market.
