Get your hands on this exclusive electric guitar

The Ibanez AZ series has been heralded as the pinnacle of contemporary guitar design, and now, thanks to Ibanez UK, you could win one very special swirled Premium AZ.

Swirl finishes were among the most desirable looks for the Ibanez shred machines of the ’80s, and that aesthetic returns for this custom model, which has been produced by Richard Fay Swirls UK.

Otherwise, the guitar features the same award-winning features as the regular Premium AZ, with a basswood body, roasted maple neck, stainless steel frets and an Ibanez Premium case, while every drop of tone is eked out of the Seymour Duncan Hyperion HSS pickup configuration via the DYNA-MIX 10 switching system.

The retail value of this guitar is £1,000, while a mesmerising finish like that will set you back another £200, so this is one seriously desirable prize.

All you have to do to be in with a chance of winning is follow Ibanez UK on Instagram and like their video post of the guitar.

The competition is open to UK entrants only, and the lucky winners will also secure themselves tickets to the UK Guitar Show!
