Value-packed Steve Vai Signature

Steve Vai's signature guitars have become almost as iconic as the player himself, and now that mojo is more attainable than ever with the Ibanez JEMJR Steve Vai Signature solidbody electric guitar. From the acrylic vine inlay to the instantly-recognizable "monkey grip" handle, there's no doubt where the JEMJR Steve Vai Signature came from. For tonal tenacity, you get two Quantum humbuckers and one Quantum single-coil pickup complete with five-way switching. Factor in the double-locking tremolo bridge, and the Ibanez JEMJR Steve Vai Signature is ready to wail.

Effortless playability, with the fastest-playing neck in the business

One of Ibanez's fastest necks to date, the Wizard III neck on the JEMJR Steve Vai Signature guitar is an absolute pleasure to play. This slim and super-comfortable neck lets you pull off lighting-fast runs and arpeggios with ease, but still gives you the substance you need for grabbing chords when you need to. From the first time you put your hands on the JEMJR's Wizard III neck, you'll know you've got a guitar that was built with performance in mind.

Powerful tone from Quantum pickups

Ask any guitarist at Sweetwater to describe Ibanez's Quantum pickups in just a few words, and "articulate" and "hot" will probably be near the top of the list. You've got the tonal aggression you need for hard rock and lead lines, with a defined sound that helps individual notes ring through. Especially if you juggle rhythm and lead guitar roles, you should have the sonic flexibility you need with the Ibanez JEMJR Steve Vai Signature guitar.

Whammy with confidence

The JEMJR Steve Vai Signature packs Ibanez's standard double-locking bridge, which helps you maintain your tuning stability even after heavy pitch bends. Guitarists at Sweetwater know that a whammy bar is only fun when your guitar stays in tune, and a double-locking bridge goes a long way towards achieving that goal.

Ibanez JEMJR Steve Vai Signature Features:

  • Value-packed version of Steve Vai's iconic signature guitar
  • Two Quantum humbuckers and one Quantum single-coil give you a wide tonal range
  • Acrylic vine inlay for iconic JEM style
  • Wizard III neck for ultra-fast playability
  • Standard double-locking bridge for solid tuning and intonation

Rated 5/5

Very good value and plays very well

Had it set up by sweetwater with a matching case and everything. Got it as a guitar i can leave at the office and had some stickers on it (lost a bet).

Got to say it is very good value for money, and plays really well. Very happy with the purchase.
Rated 5/5

amazing guitar

This has become my go to guitar. Steve Vai did a amazing job creating this guitar. The pickups that come with this guitar are the best factory pickups I have had in a guitar. I am putting a pearly gates humbucker in the bridge just because I love them but the stock pickups in this don't NEED replaced and the build on this guitar is genius.
