Taking adaptability to new extremes, the AZ series has established itself and carved out a place that spans everything from the warmest blues licks to the most intense, shred-heavy metal riffs. Carrying this ethos forward, the AZ line embodies time-tested Ibanez innovation and player-focused features like a smooth, oval neck grip, a well-balanced asymmetrical body shape, and the neck heel allowing for unrivaled playability.

The Ibanez Prestige line is based on three principles: Precision, Performance, and Playability. It combines high-tech manufacturing techniques with old-world Japanese craftsmanship to achieve true innovation in design and construction. The series incorporates ideas and suggestions from musicians around the world as the cornerstones of the Prestige production process.

The AZ2203N comes with 3 Single-Coil pickups, a Blender, an Oval C S-TECH WOOD Roasted Maple neck, a Non-recessed tremolo bridge cavity, and a Compound Radius Fretboard.
