The Ibanez AZES40B is a versatile and beginner-friendly electric guitar built to help players feel comfortable, inspired, and confident from the very beginning.

Part of the Ibanez AZ Essentials series, this model combines smooth playability, practical features, and flexible electronics in a guitar designed to grow alongside developing musicians.

The lightweight poplar body and maple neck create a balanced, comfortable feel that works especially well for newer players and anyone looking for an easy-playing electric guitar. The 25-inch scale length slightly reduces string tension, making chords, bends, and longer practice sessions feel more approachable.

Features include:

• Poplar body
• Maple neck
• Jatoba fingerboard with 22 medium frets
• Essentials single-coil neck and middle pickups
• Accord humbucker bridge pickup
• dyna-MIX9 switching system
• Alter Switch for expanded pickup combinations
• T106 tremolo bridge
• Black finish with chrome hardware

The S-S-H pickup configuration allows players to cover a wide range of musical styles, from clean pop and blues tones to rock and heavier overdriven sounds. The dyna-MIX9 system adds even more flexibility with multiple pickup combinations accessible from a simple switching setup.

The AZES40B is especially well suited for beginners, students, and players wanting a reliable practice or backup guitar with modern versatility and comfortable ergonomics.
