Description

This 1989 Ibanez JEM7PBK is an early Steve Vai signature model finished in Black, featuring the distinctive grip handle and disappearing pyramid fingerboard inlays. The basswood body is paired with a thin maple Wizard neck and rosewood fingerboard, with scalloped upper frets for added freedom in the higher register. A pair of DiMarzio PAF Pro humbuckers and a central single-coil provide a versatile range of tones, while the double-locking Edge tremolo offers the expressive pitch control central to the JEM design. This example shows a fair amount of player wear, particularly around the tremolo cavity, and is missing its tremolo arm.

Includes hard shell case.
