Review: Highly recommend. β˜†β˜†β˜†β˜†β˜†β˜† - For a beginner, it's playable and usable right out of the box. The factory setup is spot on for standard student playability. The tremolo bridge is just fine for a student as it comes out of the box. Remember that a student doesn't yet know their desired settings or even if they want full up/down tremolo or just down or a fully fixed bridge. The default factory tremolo setup is perfect for students, fixed without use or they can begin working with down pitch controls to start. If they want up pitch, they can learn to setup the tremolo accordingly. And they certainly don't know how much upward pitch they want with respect to full or half steps at the 1st and 2nd strings etc. So, for those who are giving the tremolo low marks, they're WRONG. The tremolo bridge on this guitar is great and worth learning how to set up and use properly for the players developed style. For intermediate or advanced payers, you will likely want to apply your preferred setups. And this instrument is adjustable to your preferred setups without having to resort to shaving frets, etc. All standard adjustment methods should get this instrument dialed into your preferences, from string action heights, intonation tweaks (per your desired string guage) and the tremolo action settings per your desired guage string. The truss rod is smooth with respect to adjusting neck relief. Remember, different string guages effect neck relief, action response to frets, intonation and tremolo settings. Too many players never learn how to do setups and then proceed to change string guages and complain about action being bad, etc. It's paramount to learn guitar setups, just as important as learning to play is doing setups. I made the adjustment to the bridge for my preferred setup. Now it's a floating bridge with spring tensions that match the string loads and it resets the tuning pretty well after a couple pull ups on the bar to reset after heavy use on the tremolo. The current action height with the factory strings and my tremolo setup is 1.5mm at the 12th fret low E and 1.2mm at the 12th fret High E. The nut has been left factory set thus far as it seemed just fine. You can see the bridge profile image of mine floating and that there's plenty of screw height to adjust down or up in floating position with the action heights I mentioned above. So be assured you've no reason to swap out this tremolo bridge for another, just set it up so it does what you prefer. I attached photos of the spring setting from the factory setup and after setting them to my preferred settings on the tremolo springs. Now it's doing what I expect out of it. You can see my bridge now floats within the bridge profile photo. Yes, I removed one spring and set the third to center and dropped the tensions considerably with proper string tension to spring tensions, hence the high note strings have lower spring tension. With about one step pitch rise on high E with a pull up flat to body. You may want different pitch bend settings and you can get it. So, the versatility of this guitar is really good with respect to mechanical versatility... Which brings us to the next point. The wide range of pickup selections is really incredible, offering a wide spectrum of sound beyond the old standards. I'm not into hot pickups so I lowered all the pickups flat to the pickguard to soften things up. But there again, VERSATILITY is the key word when describing this guitars attributes across the board. The color is awesome and execrly what I was looking for with the pastel teal (they call mint) with a traditional true mint pickguard. The pickguards truer green conjures out that hint of blue in the pastel teal of the body. Construction detail is really good, flawless. It's a great value for the money. One of the top, if not the top strat syle guitar the money spent out there at this time. Review: Best looking and sounding Strat. My favorite guitar! - Amazing guitar. I understand fully well this is an entry-intermediate level guitar but the quality, feel, sounds (pickup tones), and look have made this guitar into my case-queen. I play her daily they wipe her down lovingly and gaze into her eyes. This guitar was a serious upgrade from my starcaster by fender "strat" which was sss pickup configuration. The HSS on this super strat sounds like a dream come true. Watch youtube on this guitar if you need to, its worth it and if the slightest thing happens to my queen ill he be selling it off and getting another one so it can be my perfect beauty queen. i think it looks better than any strat by fender, the headstock is my favorite part. ## Features - Solidbody Electric Guitar with Poplar Body - 2 Single-coil Pickups - Tremolo - Mint Green - 1 Humbucking Pickup - Jatoba Fingerboard ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09G6GYCS3 | | Back Material Type | Medium frets | | Best Sellers Rank | #46,637 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #277 in Solid Body Electric Guitars | | Body Material | Poplar | | Body Material Type | Poplar | | Brand | Ibanez | | Brand Name | Ibanez | | Color | Mint Green | | Connector Type | 1/4" (6.35mm) jack | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 92 Reviews | | Fretboard Material Type | Jatoba Wood | | Guitar Bridge System | F106 | | Guitar Pickup Configuration | S-S-S | | Hand Orientation | Right | | Instrument | guitar | | Instrument Size | 5.00 | | Item Dimensions | 41.34 x 17.52 x 3.74 inches | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 41.34"L x 17.52"W x 3.74"H | | Item Weight | 9 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Ibanez | | Manufacturer Part Number | AZES40MGR | | Material Type | Poplar, Maple, Jatoba | | Model Name | AZES40 | | Model Number | AZES40MGR | | Neck Material Type | Maple | | Number of Strings | 6 | | Scale Length | 25.5 Inches | | String Material Type | Nickel | | Top Material Type | Poplar Wood | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 year. | ## Product Details - **Back Material Type:** Poplar - **Body Material:** Poplar - **Brand:** Ibanez - **Color:** Mint Green - **Fretboard Material Type:** Jatoba Wood - **Guitar Pickup Configuration:** S-S-S - **Hand Orientation:** Right - **Neck Material Type:** Maple - **String Material Type:** Nickel - **Top Material Type:** Poplar Wood ## Images ![AZES40 Electric Guitar - Mint Green - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61WJmVtdOSL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How much does it weigh ?** A: The weight varies on these guitars. It could be as light as 6 pounds - it could be as light as 7 pounds. Thank you. **Q: What is the 'alter' switch? A phase shifter? Or does it change the humbucker into a single coil pickup..It can't be both by the way, so a 'yes' or 'no** A: It swaps up the pickup combinations from the selector. Hard to explain so I’ll just list them. Assume that the humbucker is made up of 2 coils, which I’ll call Coil 1 and Coil 2. Coil 1 is closer to the fretboard while Coil 2 is closer to the bridge. Unless stated otherwise, pickups are being run in parallel. Also assume that the Bridge is referring to the ful humbucker unless otherwise stated. Alter Switch OFF Position 1: Bridge only Position 2: Middle and Bridge (Coil 1 only) Position 3: Middle only Position 4: Neck and Middle Position 5: Neck Alter Switch ON Position 1: Bridge only Position 2: Bridge only (Coil 1 only) Position 3: Neck (series), Middle (series), Bridge Position 4: Neck and Bridge (Coil 2) Position 5: Neck (series) and Middle (series) If any of this is confusing to you, I promise it gets easier to remember, and if it helps, the pickup diagrams for each position is on the Ibanez website under this particular model. Good luck and keep shredding. 🀘 ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommend. β˜†β˜†β˜†β˜†β˜†β˜† *by A***N on July 18, 2025* For a beginner, it's playable and usable right out of the box.

Heavily researched it between several others in this price range and landed on this one due to the tone. A good middle ground between cheaper $170 dollar ones and $500 dollar ones. ## Frequently Bought Together - Ibanez AZES40 Electric Guitar - Mint Green - Amazon Basics Adjustable Folding Guitar Stand, A-shape, Fully Assembled - For School Music Program, Concerts & Multiple Users, Black - New Bee 10 ft Guitar Cable - Electric Instrument Cable for Bass, Guitar, Mandolin, Pro Audio - Straight to Straight - Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/377339479-azes40-electric-guitar-mint-green](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/377339479-azes40-electric-guitar-mint-green) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-07-06*
