Ibanez AZ41P1EW-NGT AZ Premium Series Electric Guitar in Natural Gray Burst

The Ibanez AZ41P1EW-NGT is a sleek, modern workhorse from the AZ Premium series, built for players who need one guitar to cover everything from glassy cleans to molten high-gain riffs. With its elegant English Walnut top in Natural Gray Burst, ultra-stable roasted Maple neck and a pair of versatile Seymour Duncan Hyperion humbuckers, it is designed to feel effortless in the hands while delivering a wide palette of usable, gig-ready tones.

Part of the acclaimed AZ line, this model takes Ibanez’s player-first philosophy and refines it with premium materials and hardware. The smooth Oval C neck profile, ergonomic body contours and Super All Access neck joint make fast runs, tricky chords and high-register bends feel completely natural. Add in the dyna-MIX10 switching system, Gotoh hardware and stainless steel frets, and you have a guitar that is built to inspire confidence on stage and in the studio.

Premium AZ Playability

The AZ41P1EW-NGT is all about comfort and control. The Oval C roasted Maple neck sits perfectly in the hand, offering a familiar, broken-in feel straight away. Combined with the Super All Access neck joint and ergonomic rear body contour, upper fret access is smooth and unhindered, letting you move from low-end riffing to high-register lead lines without thinking about the instrument getting in the way.

Versatile Hyperion Humbuckers with dyna-MIX10

Loaded with Seymour Duncan Hyperion humbuckers, this AZ delivers a balanced, articulate voice that stays clear even under heavy distortion. Thanks to the dyna-MIX10 switching system with Alter switch, you can flip between humbucker and convincing single-coil style sounds, unlocking ten distinct tonal options from just two pickups. From tight rhythm crunch to sparkling cleans, the guitar adapts instantly to whatever style you are playing.

Premium Tonewoods and Construction

An English Walnut top with its striking, exotic grain sits over an American Basswood body, giving the guitar a natural, even response that works brilliantly with pedals and high-gain amps. The Rosewood fretboard adds warmth and focus to the midrange, while the roasted Maple neck improves stability and resistance to changes in temperature and humidity, making this a reliable partner for regular rehearsals and gigs.

High-End Hardware for Real-World Performance

Gotoh MG-T locking machine heads and the Gotoh T1502 tremolo bridge provide rock-solid tuning stability and a responsive feel under the picking hand. The locking tuners speed up string changes and help keep the guitar in tune through bends and tremolo use, while the steel saddles and zinc tremolo block enhance attack, sustain and clarity. Jumbo stainless steel frets add durability and a slick, precise feel for both chords and lead work, and luminescent side dots keep you orientated on dark stages.

• Roasted Maple Oval C Neck - The heat-treated roasted Maple neck offers enhanced stability and resistance to moisture and temperature changes, so your set-up stays consistent. The comfortable Oval C profile feels fast yet supportive, making long sessions less fatiguing and giving you the confidence to tackle demanding techniques.
• Seymour Duncan Hyperion Humbuckers with dyna-MIX10 - A pair of Hyperion humbuckers deliver clear, balanced tones that retain note definition under gain. Paired with the dyna-MIX10 switching system and Alter switch, you get ten versatile sounds ranging from full, punchy humbuckers to realistic single-coil style voices, covering blues, rock, fusion and modern metal with ease.
• Gotoh T1502 Tremolo and MG-T Locking Machine Heads - The Gotoh T1502 tremolo bridge, with its steel saddles and zinc block, provides a quick, articulate response and smooth vibrato action. Gotoh MG-T locking tuners keep tuning rock solid and make string changes fast and hassle-free, ideal for regular gigging and studio work.
