Ibanez JEM77P Steve Vai Premium, Blue Floral - Secondhand

Full Description

A body built for tone

Don't compromise on comfort and playability. This guitar proves you can deliver a powerful sound whilst still holding an instrument that is lightweight and easy to play. The American basswood body features elegant contours that not only look stunning, but allow for a comfortable playing experience too. The double cutaway design then offers stress-free access to the upper frets. Basswood focuses on the midrange frequencies, resulting in a fat and well-balanced tone that has delicious definition and grind, perfect for making every note shine during those magical solos.

A neck and fretboard with wonderful potential

One of the most compelling features of this guitar is the five-piece maple and walnut neck. It offers a bright tone that is rich in sparkling sustain, ideal for full, shimmering overtones. The combination of the two woods expands your tonal palette, resulting in amazing sonic capabilities that beg your virtuosic creativity. The KTS titanium rods ensure the neck has impeccable strength and stability that lends itself to any aggressive playing, whilst Ibanez's thin wizard profile accommodates swift sliding. Don't hold back, the sturdy, beautiful neck can handle every ferocious performance.

Mounted onto the gloriously designed neck is a fretboard also made from maple. It incorporates a smooth and fast finish that is perfect for rapid fretting whilst its tone complements that of the American basswood body. Go wild with those dive bombs and never worry about any hindrance, every note will shine with fantastic clarity. The Tree of Life inlay will then ensure you look as stunning as you sound.

Powerful dynamics

Meticulous attention has been given to the much-needed versatility that any guitarist desires without compromising on sheer power. Project a jaw-dropping tone with the DiMarzio pickups. There is not one, but two types - Gravity Storm and Evolution - that deliver a strikingly colourful range of tones. The neck pickup offers a full tone that resides between a humbucker and single-coil, whilst the bridge enhances the high end frequencies for a tantalising treble response that retains brilliant sustain. Equipped at the middle is the Evolution single-coil pickup which offers harmonic qualities that balance beautifully with the neck and bridge pickups. Choose between the pickups quickly and easily using the five-way pickup selector.

An innovative tremolo bridge

The Ibanez JEM77P is equipped with a superb and sturdy Edge Zero II tremolo. The floating tremolo system combined with double locking technology allows for incredible tuning stability. So, you can perform crazy techniques without a string slipping out of tune.
