With an HSS set of Seymour Duncan Hyperion 7 pickups, dyna-MIX9 switching and a silky S-TECH roasted maple neck, it is a precision tool for progressive rock, technical metal and beyond, all wrapped up in a sleek gloss black finish. Every detail of the AZ24047BK has been engineered to feel familiar yet refined. The extended range 7 string format gives you access to low, powerful riffs without sacrificing clarity or comfort, while stainless steel frets, a premium Gotoh tremolo and locking tuners keep your playing accurate and in tune under the heaviest use. Whether you live on clean, intricate chord voicings or saturated lead tones, this Prestige AZ delivers the control and consistency you need on stage and in the studio. S-TECH Roasted Maple Neck and Fretboard The S-TECH roasted maple neck and fretboard provide a fast, smooth playing surface with exceptional stability. The roasting process removes excess moisture from the wood, helping the neck resist warping and improving tuning consistency across different climates. Combined with the comfortable AZ profile and precise Japanese fretwork, the neck feels broken in from day one, encouraging long, fatigue free sessions. Seymour Duncan Hyperion 7 HSS Pickups A calibrated set of Seymour Duncan Hyperion 7 pickups in an HSS configuration gives the AZ24047BK a huge tonal range. The single coils in the neck and middle positions offer articulate, glassy cleans and punchy rhythm sounds, while the bridge humbucker delivers tight, focused drive that keeps extended range riffs clear and defined. Passive electronics keep the response dynamic, so your picking hand really shapes the sound. dyna-MIX9 Switching System The dyna-MIX9 switching system unlocks nine distinct pickup combinations from the HSS layout, letting you move from classic single coil sparkle to series and parallel humbucking voices at the flick of a switch. This means you can cover everything from funk and fusion to modern metal without changing guitars, making the AZ24047BK an ideal all rounder for players who need maximum flexibility from a single instrument.
