Staggering heights of musicality JOE SATRIANI SIGNATURE MODELS

IN N OV AT ION IN D E S IG N

Maestro Joe Satriani’s jaw-dropping skill on the guitar is only matched by the sheer beauty and artistry of his Signature instruments. Created in collaboration with Satch himself, these models are indeed an extension of his playing: finely nuanced yet capable of staggering heights of musicality.

• JS1600, JS1200 and JS1000 are precision made in Japan.

• Multi-radius Prestige neck (JS1600/JS1200/JS1000) is an exact digital rendering of Joe’s favorite axe • High-pass filter on (JS1600/JS1200/JS1000) VOLUME POT maintains highs at low volumes.

• All models feature coil tapping on both neck and bridge pickups • Edge III (JS100) offers the great feel of the original Edge trem but is lower profile for increased comfort • JS1600PSV offers the stylistic and sonic alternative of a mahogany body with a fixed bridge and locking tuners

STEVE VAI SIGNATURE MODELS

Steve Vai is one of the few guitarists universally acknowledged as one who has changed the way musicians think about what a guitar can really do. His signature Ibanez guitars are no different: Iconic, Sublime, Awe-Inspiring, Outrageous. The Ibanez JEM Series models are trailblazers in a world of imitators – there’s nothing like them.

IN N OV ATI ON I N DESI GN • Proudly made in Japan since their debut in 1987 • Contoured body with 24-fret JEM Prestige neck provides easy access to all registers • Vai’s choice of specific DiMarzio pickups for each model combined with Ibanez Split-5 wiring provide incredible tonal versatility • Lions claw tremolo cavity allows pitches to be raised or lowered • JEM7EAFX is the first JEM ever to feature a fixed bridge • Steve Vai’s Japanese made Universe – the iconic solid-body seven-string– allows easy transition from 6- to 7-string techniques

INCLUDES DELUXE HARDSHELL CASE The newest member of the JEM family of Steve Vai signature models is the first JEM to feature a fixed bridge, something that Steve has been asked for in every city that he plays after every performance. That first alone makes it a modern guitar milestone. But as Steve Vai’s own global graphic design on the body indicates, the JEM7EAFXBK is the also first guitar of Ibanez’s World Wood Program* dedicated to increased utilization of sustainable hardwoods in guitar making.

“This guitar will give you wood forever.”– Steve Vai *The basswood used in making the body of the JEM7EAFXBK and the maple used in making the neck are certified sustainable woods.

TRUE-DUO™ SINGLE COIL/HUMBUCKER SWITCHING SYSTEM

There have been lots of attempts and claims, but the new True-Duo™ is the genuine article – the first system that really provides both genuine glassy single-coil tones and rich, beefy humbucking tones in one pickup. After a lot of research and experimentation, Ibanez’s musician/engineers came up with an ingenious triple coil pickup that finally does the job.

SYNCHRONIZR TREMOLO

The SynchroniZR provides all the innovations of the ZR tremolo in a non-locking design. The one-piece saddle construction minimizes unnecessary wobble and loss of string vibration, and the ultra-light Duralumin tremolo arm keeps the bridge stable while playing. The same intonation and adjustment features of the ZR-2 make this a top-notch choice for any kind of player.

ZPS-FX SYSTEM

The ZPS-FX is the simplified alternative to the ZPS3 system.

This spring system allows switching from floating to nonfloating tremolos with the turn of a knob on the back. Coupled with the SynchroniZR, the ZPS-FX offers total sonic control and the pinnacle of tuning stability.
