The AZ2402FF is an AZ series solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez for 2019. It is produced in Japan by Fujigen as part of the upscale Prestige line.

The AZ2402FF features a 4mm thick flame maple top on an alder body bolted to an S-Tech roasted maple oval C shaped neck with a S-Tech roasted flame maple fingerboard with 24 stainless steel frets, abalone dot position markers and luminescent side dots. Components include a pair of Seymour Duncan Hyperion humbucking pickups, a T1802 two-point synchronized tremolo bridge with titanium saddles made by Gotoh, an oil-impregnated bone nut, Sure-Grip III knobs, an angled output jack and Gotoh locking tuning machines with height-adjustable posts.

The AZ2402FF employs a dyna-MIX10 switching system (see diagram below) with an "Alter switch" toggle which allows the user to access ten distinct tones. The Alter switch appears to tap one coil of the humbucker (as opposed to a traditional coil-split which disables one coil completely) to achieve a sound similar to a single coil without the drop in output which typically accompanies a coil split.

The AZ2402 is a similar model without the flame maple top and fretboard. The AZ2402K is a similar model with a koa top and roasted maple fretboard. The AZ2402Q is a similar model with a quilted maple top. The AZ2402MW is a similar model with a myrtle top and roasted maple fretboard. The AZ2402C is a similar model with a chestnut top.

The AZ2402FF was discontinued in 2020.
