Ibanez AZES MGR - AZ Essentials (No Talk Gear Demo)

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thank you for sharing!

[@coaststrings]

The clean demo of the different pickup selections was the most insightful part of this video. Excellent. Thank you for doing that!

[@lrob1234]

Something tells me that these are going to be very, very popular.

[@haikoheinz7359]

I agree:)!

[@Ronno4691]

Seconded!

Thirded....Just ordered one in Mint Green 😂.

[@jimmydover1632]

Amazing playing and tones, I'm looking now to buy this guitar, I think this is a very good guitar for the money and for me 25'' scale fits well.

[@mazingaball]

Awesome video and way cool playing. The format is perfect to get the feel of this guitar. Great work.

[@CRVSADERSONGS]

Thank the musical pantheon for No-Talk Gear Demos. Awesome licks and riffs! I'm torn between this and my first non-Squier Tele. The Ibanez AZES is definitely more budget-friendly.

[@yoshiki.g1450]

Yes yes yes. This is how we want to see a guitar demo video. Love your videos and love your playing. You are too good. 😎👍

[@ernestschultz5065]

I like that Ibanez offers this guitar in a hard tail.

[@johniresearchist7263]

aesthetically this guitar is 10/10

[@rossettivictor]

Thank you for this video.

[@midtown3221]

-$500 USD is too much in one go for me right now, but in the future when I want a strat clone I'll buy one of these.- Nevermind, Sweetwater priced them at $300 and $350!

[@diddymies]

closer to 300 than 500

[@germanCrowbar]

I wish Ibanez would build this with wilkinson vs100 tremolo, baked neck, ash body and locking tuner for under 600€.

[@SaxJockey]

Great demo and playing...waiting for mine to arrive in a few days.

[@Worlds_Worst_Guitarist]

Very great sounds and playing! And a big "Thank You" for NOT talking :-)

[@dimasnugroho94_]

It will be nice if Ibanez put 2 point pivot tremolo 😁

[@shisei3518]

so great demo song !!

[@lookforbriansjazz7832]

Does Ibanez realize what they’ve done? They’ve made it so you don’t need an AZ. I could bring this in to the studio and no one could tell if I was playing that or a $5,000 Les Paul. Nice! 👍🏻🎸☮️

[@MCHiphopotamus]

I could tell the difference between this great guitar and any Les Paul, good or bad... This and LP sound nothing alike.

[@lookforbriansjazz7832]

Today, so much is interfacing and amp modeling you can make any guitar sound like anything.

[@myx0mop]

This is a nice guitar, but you should try the AZ. A different animal.

[@binzianer]

Damn, that tone! So fresh!

[@TomsRockHouse]

Großartiges Demo! Chapeau

[@MarkFromTaiwan]

very nice playing the neck tone with toggle on is amazing i like to see this tremolo works

[@snakeplissken44]

I think this thing sounds great! I'm also a fan of 25" scale.

[@andrewthaww3533]

Demonstration si so amazing

[@joshuadelsaraza4782]

I'm quite intrigued to see the inside

[@MadSonStudios]

new sub... i was thinking about buying this guitar you sealed the deal.. damn brother your a badass on that guitar.i love the tone and the fluency you create.thank you for making up my mind.when i get it should i replace anything like pickups hardware wiring?

[@haikoheinz7359]

Thanks so much bro! I really liked the pickups, but to be honest i noticed maybe a bit of the agressive highs, that sometimes come with cheaper pickups - but that´s just a tad and easy to replace. The rest feels really much more expensive than it actually is!

[@alvarezcanete4498]

Nice. I have two of these..the black one and the purist blue color. I thought about changing the neck and middle with Alnico pickups. Should I? What are your thoughts. I mean, the stock pickups are ceramic and sound pretty great, but I'm planning to maybe change one of mine to Alnico noiseless pickups, like the Seymour Duncan STK-4.

Returned mine yesterday, I got it two days ago with a back bowed warped neck that couldn't be zeroed or relieved with the truss rod. Also, it has tooling marks and paint miss or chip on it. What a letdown.

Sorry to hear that- but that happens. Worth trying a new one…

[@richarddaradar6173]

This or the gretsch g2210?

[@bluwng]

I wonder if a roasted AZ neck with Jumbo frets fits on this body or even a Fender neck.

[@haikoheinz7359]

I really don‘t know…

[@56brever]

Different scale length so the answer is definitely not.

[@elmanitasdeplomo]

Fender neck most certainly not, just look at the shape of the heel. And why on earth would you want to? Might as well just buy a fender then.

[@bluwng]

@@elmanitasdeplomo neck heel and neck pocket are two separate things. I know the answer what I am looking for is confirmation from someone who may tried or owns these guitars. You don’t fit any of these conditions and do not have the expertise to respond. You sound like every bitter know it all who doesn’t know squat.
