As part of its 2021 lineup rollout, Ibanez has unveiled its new AZ2204N electric guitar.
The first AZ series model with a rosewood fingerboard and tortoiseshell scratchplate, the AZ2204N also sports an alder body, an AZ Oval C S-Tech Wood roasted maple neck, and chrome hardware.
Also new for the AZ series are the AZ2204N's newly-designed Seymour Duncan Fortuna pickups, which Ibanez says are underwound relative to the original Hyperion pickups, and feature a more scooped mid-range.
New to the AZ series as well is a Gotoh T1702 tremolo bridge, a non-recessed bridge cavity, and a 228mm to 305mm compound radius.
Though no release date for the guitar has been announced yet, it will be sold – in Prussian Blue, Antique White, and Black finishes, and with a hardshell case included – for $1,999.
