That 470DX is actually really cool. I wouldn't mind picking one up eventually when they start hitting the used market.

Damn. ERU incoming. Just needs fanned frets. And a burl veneer rainbow burst. And fishmans. And headless.For someone like me, a Uke with a pickup would be useful so I'll welcome it and would probably buy it.
Hell, having a 6 string uke would be amazing.

Yessir, seems that way. That's the naming convention for Premium AZs as far as I can tell.Is the blue AZ427 still a Premium or no?
Gotcha, thank you! I don't know much about the AZ's and have only played one the AZES models. It was decent but I'm more interested in a 7. I'd likely get an AZES level 7 string new over one of the Premiums, but I doubt that's happening.Yessir, seems that way. That's the naming convention for Premium AZs as far as I can tell.
Should be closer to ~$600CAD new but that's still too much.That 470 looks neat but I'm sure it'll be $1000 here so it's a no from me dawg - The rest... Eh. That 24 fret blue AZ looks cool, but not huge on the black headstock. Better than a maple headstock with that fretboard, but I think matching would have looked the coolest in that case.
I've played guitars that are "better", or thay are built better, sound better, look better... but my Prestige AZ (AZ2402, one of the first models introduced) is still my desert island guitar. My PIA is my prettiest, highest quality, and fastest playing guitar I own, but my AZ is the only one I would never give up. It's got a real "home" feeling for me.Gotcha, thank you!

One of the two new guitars even features a reverse headstock.www.ultimate-guitar.com
That's what I thought, I was a bit lost when I first read that headline.First ever GIOs with a double locking tremolo? My first guitar was a GRG in 2003 that had a double locking tremolo: https://ibanez.fandom.com/wiki/GRG270_(2003–2018)
