Butter-soft playing characteristics
With its butter-soft playing characteristics, the AZES31 ensures long-lasting enjoyment when learning to play the electric guitar. The poplar body rests comfortably on the player thanks to the generous contours on the front and back, while the flowing all-access neck joint makes it easy to reach the high positions of the maple neck, which is secured with four screws. The flat AZES neck profile and the slightly shortened 25" scale length (635 mm) also ensure that all strings can be played with ease.
Thanks to the dyna-MIX8 circuit, the Essentials Ceramic Single Coils deliver versatile timbres for almost any style of music.
Essentials single coils with dyna-MIX8 circuitry
Thanks to the flexible pickup setup with three Ibanez Essentials single coils, the AZES31 on the guitar amplifier delivers a wide sound spectrum for almost any style such as blues, funk, jazz and rock. Equipped with ceramic magnets, the single coils have a harmonically balanced sound with lively dynamics, enabling clean sounds to bubble out of the speaker with brilliance, while the overdrive provides the punch. The Dyna-MIX8 circuit provides eight different combinations of pickups via the 5-way blade switch and the Alter switch, such that the sound can be precisely adjusted in conjunction with the general volume and tone controls.
Split-shaft tuners on the headstock of the AZES31 guitar ensure precise and stable tuning.
High-quality Hardware with F106 bridge
High-quality and reliable hardware completes the AZES31 Arctic Ocean Metallic electric guitar from Ibanez. With the fixed Ibanez F106 bridge, a modernized hardtail is used on the body, which supports a lively sound with the strings anchored in the body. The "Comfort Round" string saddles combine optimum adjustability of intonation and string position with a pleasant surface texture, allowing the palm of the hand to rest on the bridge for palm mutes. Furthermore, Ibanez split-shaft tuners promise precise and robust tuning of the electric guitar.
