What we say:
At A Glance:
As part of the new Ibanez AZ Essentials series, the AZES 31 helps to redefine what's possible in an "affordable" guitar.
We all remember days gone by when "starter" and "affordable" meant a guitar's quality was ..... ropey at best. No more. The Ibanez AZES 31 aims to change all this with an instrument that bears all the quality and features Ibanez are known for at a fantastic price. Built with the novice musician in mind, this guitar sports three superb Ibanez Essentials singlecoil pickups with a 5-way Switch and dyna-MIX8 switching system for a host of sounds, a dependable hardtail bridge and 25" scale.
Features We Love:
A New Level of Quality
Ibanez decided they were tired of the trope of "affordable" and "beginner" guitars being of poor quality for the sake of price. The AZES 31, and the whole AZ Essentials Series correct this by delivering a feature packed, Ibanez quality instrument, that's still designed with the novice in mind, at a fantastic price.
Ibanez Essentials Pickups and dyna-MIX8 Switching
The AZES31 features a trio of Ibanez Essentials singlecoil pickups with a 5-way-switch, giving you the classic 5 positions common to 3-pickup guitars. This is augmented with the dyna-MIX8 switching system with Alter Switch. This expands your tonal options with paired pickups wired in series like a humbucker instead of parallel, or having the Bridge and Neck pickups on together like a T-Style guitar. This gives you a hugely expanded array of tones to play with.
Beginner Friendly Measurements
The AZES31 has been designed with the beginner in mind. The 25" scale length is a little shorter than that traditionally found in lighter weight, 3-pickup double cutaway guitars, making it a little more accessible for inexperienced hands. The 250mm/9.8" fretboard radius makes forming chords at the lower end of the fretboard a doddle while leaving keeping things clear up the top for effortless lead work and string bending.
Highlights:
- 3 High Quality Ibanez Essentials Singlecoil Pickups
- dyna-MIX8 switching lets you access a host of extra tones
- Reliable Hardtail Bridge
- High quality hardware and construction throughout
- Built with the beginner in mind
- Redefines what an "affordable" guitar means in quality
