  Rosewood fretboard

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

  Compound Radius Fretboard (228mm to 305mm)

  Offering the best of both worlds, the digitized compound radius fretboard is built to enhance both smooth chording and lead work in the upper register.

  5 tremolo springs

  Five tremolo springs allow string vibration to be more efficiently transferred to the guitar body.

  Non-recessed bridge cavity

  While the AZ series features a recessed bridge cavity for fluid and dynamic tremolo action, this model has non-recessed bridge cavity. The direct contact between bridge plate and the guitar body provides better resonance and helps facilitate subtle nuances in playing dynamics.

  dyna-MIX9 switching system with Alter Switch

  The dyna-MIX 9 offers nine sound variations and can switch between humbucker and single coil modes with just a flick of the mini switch. One mode even simulates a humbucking sound from the combination of two single coil pickups.

  Seymour Duncan® Fortuna™ S-S-H pickups

  Seymour Duncan® Fortuna™ Pickups feature a moderate output and natural clean voicing which accurately reflect subtle playing nuances. From treble to bass, the overall tonal balance is evenly adjusted and works well with various effect pedals.

  Gotoh® T1702B tremolo bridge

  The T1702B tremolo bridge provides 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. The tremolo block and saddles are made of brass, facilitating better overall resonance.

  Oval C S-TECH WOOD Roasted Maple neck

  The S-TECH special roasted treatment increases the wood's stability, durability, water resistance and tolerance of temperature changes. The neck is sealed with an oil finish which helps make it feel similar to a well-played guitar neck.

  Ergonomic rear body contour

  A shallow body back contour and a big forearm contour make the guitar body fit the player naturally, thus increasing playing comfort. The AZ body has a deep waist and different radii on each body edge curve, making it easier to play in both standing or sitting positions.

  Gotoh® Magnum Lock machine heads w/H.A.P.(Height Adjustable Post)

  GOTOH® MAGNUM LOCK® machine heads have an established reputation for tuning stability. Its H. A. P® (Height Adjustable Post). system allows for the adjustment of string posts for the appropriate tension of each string.

  Luminlay side dots

  The Luminlay side dot position marks make it easy for players to see fretboard position marks when performing on dark stages.

  Super All Access Neck Joint

  The Super All Access Neck Joint increases playability and allows for easy access to the higher frets.
