Ibanez AZ242BC-DET Premium

Ibanez AZ242BC in a Deep espresso burst colour.

"The AZ242BC is an AZ series solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez for 2018. It was produced in Indonesia as part of the mid-tier Premium line.

The AZ242BC features a bocote top on an American basswood body bolted to a roasted maple neck with a 24 stainless steel fret roasted maple fingerboard with black dot position markers and luminescent side dots. Components include a pair of Seymour Duncan Hyperion humbucking pickups, a Gotoh T1502 two-point synchronized tremolo bridge, a Graph Tech TUSQ nut, Sure-Grip III knobs, and Gotoh locking tuning machines with height-adjustable posts. The AZ242BC employs a dyna-MIX10 switching system (see diagram at right) with an "Alter switch" toggle which allows the user to access ten distinct tones. The Alter switch appears to tap one coil of the humbucker (as opposed to a traditional coil-split which disables one coil completely) to achieve a sound similar to a single coil without the drop in output which typically accompanies a coil split. "

This one is from 2019 according to the serial number.

The condition of the guitar is very good with no dings at all but some pick scratching on the front and some small scratches on the back. The neck has some buffing on the backside also the fretboard shows some buffing but no dirt buildup.

The frets are in good condition with no divoting or wear on them.

The pickups are original set of Hyperion Seymour duncan pickups.

The neck is straight and truss rod works fine.

The guitar comes in a Ibanez Premium semi hard case.

Also included are the Ibanez Multi tool tremolo arm and the manuals you see in the pictures.
