Designed as an accessible entry point into Ibanez’s AZ lineup, the AZ22S2MGR AZ Standard electric guitar delivers modern playability, flexible switching, and reliable hardware in a streamlined, gig-ready format. A solid alder body provides balanced resonance, while a roasted maple neck and jatoba fingerboard contribute a crisp attack and smooth response across the fretboard. Paired with a T106 tremolo bridge, locking machine heads, and Ibanez’s dyna-MIX9 switching system, this AZ Standard model covers a wide range of tones without sacrificing control or comfort.
Roasted Maple Neck Designed for Stability and Comfort The roasted maple neck is heat-treated to improve dimensional stability and resistance to humidity changes, helping the guitar maintain a consistent setup over time. A satin polyurethane finish keeps the neck fast and smooth under your hand, while a 25.5" scale length and comfortable radius support clean chord work and controlled bends. Jumbo stainless steel frets add durability and a slick feel that holds up to frequent practice, rehearsals, and gigs.
Classic Custom Pickups With Flexible Voicing An Ibanez Classic Custom pickup set pairs single-coils in the neck and middle positions with a humbucker at the bridge for a wide tonal palette. This configuration gives you clear, articulate cleans, tight rhythm tones, and thicker lead sounds when needed. The pickups are voiced to stay responsive and balanced, making them well suited for everything from detailed chord work to driven solos.
Dyna-MIX9 Switching Expands Tonal Options The dyna-MIX9 switching system uses a five-way lever switch and an Alter Switch to unlock nine distinct pickup combinations. This setup lets you access traditional single-coil sounds, humbucker voices, and blended tones without complicated controls. You can move between styles quickly, shaping your sound on the fly during rehearsals, recording sessions, or live sets.
T106 Tremolo and Locking Hardware for Reliable Performance The T106 tremolo bridge offers smooth action and stable return, making it easy to add subtle vibrato or expressive pitch movement. Locking machine heads improve tuning stability and speed up string changes, while the overall hardware layout keeps the guitar feeling solid and predictable under your hands. This setup supports confident playing during long sessions without constant adjustments.
A Balanced AZ Platform for Everyday Playing If you’re looking for an electric guitar that delivers consistent feel, modern switching flexibility, and dependable hardware, the AZ22S2MGR AZ Standard is a practical choice. Its ergonomic design, stable neck, and versatile electronics make it well suited for players who need one instrument that can adapt to different musical ideas while staying comfortable and reliable.
