Ibanez built the AZ242PBGCKB as part of the AZ Premium Series, positioning it in the mid-to-upper tier of the AZ line. The model carried a Poplar Burl top over an American Basswood body, paired with a Roasted Maple neck and Roasted Maple fretboard with Black dot inlays. Its Charcoal Black Burst finish defined the finish variant within the AZ242PBG family.
The guitar shipped with 24 Jumbo Stainless Steel frets on a 305mm radius board, a 648mm (25.5") scale length, and a 42mm nut width courtesy of a Graph Tech nut. Seymour Duncan Hyperion humbuckers — passive, Alnico-loaded — occupied both neck and bridge positions, with gold hardware throughout. The Gotoh T1502 tremolo bridge, set to a 10.5mm string spacing, handled vibrato duties. Ibanez strung the instrument from the factory with D'Addario EXL110s (.010–.046) in standard E tuning.
Owners sourcing replacement parts should note that the Gotoh T1502 tremolo and Seymour Duncan Hyperion pickups are independently catalogued components; a guitar technician or qualified luthier can advise on compatible string blocks, saddles, springs, and pickup mounting hardware specific to this configuration.
Nothing in The Vault is for sale. These records exist so the instruments stay documented after the manufacturer moves on — and the most useful part of that record is what owners add to it.
The catalog shot showed one finish, under one light, a long time ago. Yours has been played. Photos from owners are what the next person finds when they are trying to identify a part, match a finish, or work out whether the one they just bought is really what the seller said it was.
Specs only go so far. What actually fits, what breaks first, what the factory got right and what everyone ends up changing — that lives with the people who own them, not in a datasheet. Post what you know and it stays on this page for whoever comes looking next.
