A refined and highly versatile instrument from Ibanez’s Prestige line, this 2021 AZ2402 is presented in Tri Fade Burst and built to the company’s premium factory specification, offering a modern platform designed for precision, comfort, and tonal flexibility.

Crafted in Japan, the AZ2402 features a balanced alder body paired with a roasted maple neck and fingerboard, providing stability and a smooth, responsive playing surface. The neck profile is tailored for fluid movement across all registers, complemented by a compound radius and stainless steel frets that contribute to both durability and effortless bending.

Fitted with Seymour Duncan Hyperion pickups and the dyna-MIX9 switching system, the instrument delivers an expansive tonal range. Clean settings reveal a clear and articulate voice with piano-like note separation, while driven tones maintain definition and balance without becoming congested. The low end is tight and controlled, mids are present without being overbearing, and the high frequencies retain a smooth clarity that avoids harshness.

The Gotoh hardware and floating tremolo system provide excellent tuning stability and subtle expressive control, making it equally suited to nuanced phrasing and more dynamic performance styles. It is a design that has found favour among contemporary session players and technically minded guitarists who require consistency and adaptability across a wide range of genres.

This example has been carefully looked after, showing only light playing marks. It has a particularly comfortable setup with a low, easy action that invites extended playing. Supplied complete with its original hard case, paperwork, and tool kit, it represents a well-kept and highly capable example of the AZ series, ready for both studio and stage use.
