Roasted maple neck & Rosewood fretboard
The neck is made of heat-treated maple.
Heat-treated maple is expected to provide shape stability, durability against warping, water resistance, and resistance to temperature changes.
The neck thickness is 20.5*22.5 (at 1F*12F), which was determined to be the best after several prototypes and verifications.
The back of the neck is finished with a satin finish to provide smooth playing comfort.
The fingerboard is made of rosewood, which is known for its tenacious and mild mid-range sound.
AZ7 Modern Oval C Neck Grip
This is an original neck shape developed by measuring and analyzing the neck grips of dozens of guitars made by both our own and other companies.
The neck grip is shaped to drop gently from the fingerboard-neck bonding surface to the fingerboard edge, and the fingerboard edge is rounded for comfort. The shape is accurately and reliably reproduced by ball milling.
The neck is 47 mm wide at the nut and 66 mm wide at the last fret, with special attention given to the ease of gripping at the low frets and the classical style of playing with the thumb on the back of the neck at the high frets.
Body Design
The original body shape was designed for a contemporary look.
The thin body contour and large elbow contour, reminiscent of Ibanez’s signature “S” model, create a sense of unity between the player and the guitar and contribute greatly to improved playability.
The deep neck of the body makes the guitar easy to hold and maneuver on stage, and also contributes to its high playability.
The body surface has a 3mm radius and the back has an 8mm radius, with different radiuses on the front and back sides, for an ergonomic design that allows the player to feel a good fit the moment he or she holds the guitar, whether in a seated or standing position.
