Ibanez AZ Series (AZ2204 ICM listed) — JP headline

A modern AZ family example detected as AZ Series; priced slightly below our historical like‑for‑like benchmark.

Why we selected it today

Selected for the AZ family’s contemporary playability and versatile switching, and because the asking price of £1,267.66 compares favourably to our historical like‑for‑like benchmark. The pricing evidence helped too: AG currently rates the asking price as Good Value against its like-for-like comparison set.

The model’s pedigree

The Ibanez AZ family is a modern double‑cut platform spanning Prestige, Premium and more accessible versions; model tier and exact specification strongly affect value.

How we matched this guitar

Detected identity: Ibanez AZ Series. The listing title references 'AZ2204 ICM' and 'JP' but the detected identity here is the broader AZ Series classification (confidence: medium). No production year or tier has been independently verified.

Key features

AZ Series designation; listing title suggests AZ2204 ICM. Exact tier (Prestige, Premium etc.) and specification should be confirmed with the seller.

How the asking price compares

At £1,267.66, this sits against a current median asking price of £0 across 3 other closely matched listings. For now, the current market median remains the main AG benchmark at £1,389.35. The featured guitar is about 8.8% below that level. That earns AG’s Good Value rating: it looks attractively positioned without relying on an unrealistic outlier price. These are observed eBay asking prices, not confirmed sold prices.

What a buyer should check

Confirm the exact AZ model and tier, inspect the tremolo and frets, and verify pickups and switching because Prestige, Premium and signature variants can differ substantially.
