Ibanez AZ22S1F-TXB HSS electric guitar in Trans Turquoise burst

Chris (MD, Guitar Mania) says:
“First impressions are I love the looks but once you get the guitar in your hands you’ll appreciate the build quality too. The neck is pretty chunky, standard width at 42mm but feels wider to me and definitely fatter than many at 20.5mm at the first fret. The roasted maple feels very classy and super smooth in the hand. The HSS format gives versatility and the humbucker wasn’t too overwhelming. Class and versatility !”
