Description
Ibanez JEM77P Steve Vai Guitar Blue Floral Pattern B-Stock
The JEM77P is built for players who demand speed and responsiveness under pressure. Its ultra-fast 5-piece Maple/Walnut Wizard Premium neck with titanium-reinforced construction stays rock-solid through any gig, while the thin, flat profile and integrated Monkey Grip handle sit perfectly in your hands during extended sets and demanding live performances. All 24 jumbo frets respond with precision to aggressive bending and rapid string work. This B-Stock unit carries a darker-than-standard body finish and minor cosmetic blemishes, but remains fully functional with zero impact on tone or performance.
Playability & Construction
The American basswood body balances lightweight resonance with punch, paired to a titanium-reinforced maple and walnut Wizard Premium neck that resists wear and maintains its playability night after night. The 24-fret maple fingerboard features the distinctive blue Tree of Life inlay crowned with jumbo frets and Ibanez premium fret-edge treatment—which means smooth bends, no sharp catches, and the kind of fast fret-to-fret action that keeps pace with your technique.
Tone & Electronics
DiMarzio Gravity Storm humbuckers in the neck and bridge positions paired with a DiMarzio Evolution single-coil in the middle give you articulate attack and expressive sustain across all playing styles, shaped by independent volume and tone controls accessed through a 5-way switch. The Edge Zero II tremolo bridge features a knife-edge pivot and locking studs that lock you in tune even through aggressive whammy techniques—essential for reliable live performance.
