"Some guitars are built for performance, some for aesthetic. These instruments are the best of both worlds... and perhaps the universe!" - Steve Vai

When Steve Vai teamed up with Ibanez in 1987, little did he realize what a lasting impact his signature model guitar would have. Today, the JEM is an iconic instrument immediately identified with the legendary guitarist. The JEMJR features a double locking tremolo system to hold your guitar in tune, even under aggressive on-stage abuse.

Features:

• Monkey Grip - One of JEM's most recognizable features: Steve Vai's signature monkey grip. Crank your amp up, grab that baby and hold on for dear life.
• Jatoba Fretboard w/Tree-of-Life Inlay - Jatoba has a reddish brown color which produces a rich mid range with a crisp high end.
• Wizard III Maple Neck - Ibanez's thin, flat and fast Wizard neck is strong and sturdy and offers unlimited playability and features a two-octave 24-fret fretboard for a wide tonal range.
