Electric guitar with contemporary playability and traditional sound character.

The Ibanez Prestige AZ2203N-BK Black combines the AZ design optimized for modern playing techniques with a special focus on tradition-conscious Vintage sounds. In addition to the ergonomically shaped alder body, the electric guitar features a bolt-on "AZ Oval C" neck made of S-Tech Wood Roasted Maple and a rosewood fingerboard with stainless steel fretboard in jumbo format. A pickup setup with three Seymour Duncan Fortuna single coils specially designed for the AZ series provides finely resolved vintage tones with lively dynamics at the guitar amplifier, while the clever 5-way circuit with blend control makes a variety of tonal colours available. Of course, Ibanez completes the Prestige AZ2203N electric guitar with high-quality Hardware in the form of a Gotoh T1502S tremolo system and tuning stable Gotoh Magnum Lock H.A.P. tuners.

The Ibanez Prestige AZ2203N-BK Black combines agile playing characteristics in line with the spirit of the times with tradition-conscious tonal colors and top-class equipment.

Thanks to the Super All Access Neck Joint, even the highest positions of the toasted "AZ Oval C" maple neck can be played without any problems.

AZ guitar with agile handling

For the optimized bolt-on construction of the Prestige AZ2203N, Ibanez not only relies on premium tonewoods that promise a lively sound but also on extensive adaptations to complex playing techniques in line with the spirit of the times. While the alder body promises a snug playing position and trouble-free handling both on the strap and on the thigh thanks to the generous contours on the front and back, the fluidly designed Super All Access Neck Joint guarantees unhindered access to the highest registers. The pleasantly flat and rounded "AZ Oval C" makes the bolt-on neck made of S-Tech Wood Roasted Maple feel comfortable in the hand so that any solo or riff can be realized with ease on the rosewood fingerboard with compound radius. Virtually wear-free jumbo stainless steel frets with Prestige Fret Edge Treatment and perfectly rounded ends also make every bending glide as smooth as butter and as if on rails.

IBANEZ Prestige AZ2203N-BK Black Body
Three Seymour Duncan Fortuna Alnico single coils elicit finely resolved sounds with authentic vintage flair from the guitar amp.

Seymour Duncan Fortuna Single Coils

The electrical sound conversion of the Prestige AZ2203N electric guitar is handled by a traditional pickup setup with three Fortuna single coils from Californian pickup guru Seymour Duncan, which was developed exclusively for the Ibanez AZ series. Traditionally equipped with classic Alnico magnets and a particularly moderate output, the three classically built single coils elicit authentic vintage sounds of the highest quality from the guitar amplifier. With a sensitive response and the finely balanced sound pattern that combines deep but never undefined bass with steely brilliance in the treble, the Fortuna Single Coils capture every nuance in the game and are suitable not only for glassy cleans but also for wonderfully singing overdrive sounds.


IBANEZ Prestige AZ2203N-BK Black Blender Control
The smart circuit with Blender pot allows intuitive recall of all pickup combinations.

Flexible circuit with blend control

In order to provide the widest possible sound palette at the guitar amplifier, Ibanez provides the AZ2203N with a clever Blender circuit. While the 5-way blade switch calls the three Seymour Duncan Fortuna single coils in the individually and in the well-known circuits, the Blend control permits the step-less addition of the neck or bridge pickup in the switch positions 1, 2, 4 and 5, and the otherwise not attainable combination of neck and bridge pickup or the interaction of all three pickup to make possible.

IBANEZ Prestige AZ2203N-BK Black Headstock
Gotoh Magnum Lock H.A.P. with clamping function for the strings and height-adjustable axle keep the AZ2203N guitar securely in the correct tuning.

High-quality Hardware from Gotoh

Last but not least, Ibanez completes the Prestige AZ2203N-BK Black with high-quality add-on parts that are perfectly matched to the demands of modern guitarists. Equipped with five springs and set to rest firmly on the body, the Gotoh T1502S 2-Point Tremolo supports the lively vintage sound character of the electric guitar but also allows for smooth down-bends for harmonic tone embellishments. Six tailpieces with generous adjustment travel also guarantee accurate intonation and comfortable string action even when using alternative tunings. At the headstock, a bone saddle guides the strings with a straight course to the precise and tuning-stable Gotoh Magnum Lock H.A.P. tuners, whose height-adjustable winding axles allow precise adjustment of the contact pressure of the strings on the nut.
