Is there any signature guitar more identifiable than the Ibanez JEM? Designed in collaboration with guitar maestro Steve Vai in 1985, the JEM set new standards for performance. Based on the ubiquitous superstrat models from the 80s, Vai set about creating a unique instrument that is instantly recognised.
Originally specified to feature a solid body with a bolted maple 24-fret neck, this became a standard choice for similar instruments. Add to that the DiMarzio pickups in a versatile HSH configuration and the then ground-breaking floating bridge, and you’ve got a high-performance guitar suitable for the virtuoso legend that is Steve Vai! Aesthetic touches like the tree of life inlay and signature “Monkey Grip” also set this guitar apart from the rest. The Ibanez JEM is one of the strongest and longest-running signature guitars in history! If you want a slice of the JEM, there’s two models coming highly recommended this Christmas:
