Steve Vai Signature Guitar with the excellent price-performance ratio
With the Ibanez JEMJR-BK Steve Vai Jem Jr. Black Ibanez sends an affordable variant of the legendary JEM signature guitar into the race. Besides the meranti body with the obligatory Monkey Grip and the Lion's Claw under the locking tremolo, the electric guitar counts a fast "Wizard III" maple neck and the elegant Tree or Life Inlay among its features. In-house Ibanez Quantum pickup in HSH setup also promises articulate sounds for fluid soloing and virtuoso riffing.
The Ibanez JEMRJR-BK Steve Vai Jem Jr. Black offers the typical features of Steve Vai's legendary signature guitar at a great value.
In addition to the flowing All Access Neck Joint for unobstructed access to the highs of the neck, the JEMJR features the Monkey Grip.
First-class handling and typical JEM Appointments
The construction of the Steve Vai JEMJR Black combines first-class playing characteristics with the unmistakable appointments of the Steve Vai Signature models. In addition to the characteristic monkey grip, the meranti body features the "Lion's Claw" milling, which allows almost unlimited up-bends with the Tremolo. The wide Cutaways and flowing All Access Neck Joint of the sleek design also promise unobstructed access to the high registers of the bolt-on maple neck, which offers excellent playing characteristics for virtuoso solos with its flat "Wizard III" profile. Last but not least, an elegant Tree or Life inlay marks the positions between the 24 frets of the Jatoba fingerboard.
Three Ibanez Quantum pickups promise flexible guitar sounds. The locking tremolo guarantees a secure tuning even during heavy whammy bar action.
HSH pickup setup for versatile sounds.
The electrical tone conversion of the Steve Vai guitar is handled by Ibanez Quantum pickups in the flexible HSH setup. Two powerful ceramic humbuckers on the neck and bridge and a single coil in the middle position, which is also equipped with ceramic magnets, together with the 5-way circuit, elicit a variety of tonal colours between glassy cleans and juicy distortion, whose fine articulation skilfully supports virtuoso playing techniques. Furthermore, general volume and tone controls are available for adjusting the guitar sound.
Die-cast tuners ensure precise tuning of the Ibanez JEMJR Signature guitar.
Double-Locking Tremolo
As a true shredder guitar, the Ibanez JEMJR-BK Steve Vai Jem Jr. Black naturally comes with an Ibanez standard double-locking tremolo that performs virtuoso whammy bar acrobatics with dive bombs and squeals without detuning the guitar. Thanks to the deep "Lion's Claw" milling under the Tremolo, up-bends can be pulled to unimaginable heights. At the headstock in the typical Ibanez Style also provide die-cast tuners for precise tuning of the Signature electric guitar.

I was amazed by this guitar, it is absolutely brilliant, it had been packed very carefully and even the strings had been loosened (exactly how the guitar should be sent) and even better it arrived earlier than stated. Thank you dv247 a great job and I’ll definitely telling all my friends about your store.
