From Our Catalog
Named "Bad Horsie" after a Steve Vai song of the same name, the guitar features a "Rock Mirror" finish with matching mirror pickguard. The new model also features the signature JEM appointments of a "Monkey Grip" handle carved into the basswood body and a scooped tremolo cavity so pitches can be raised as well as lowered with the tremolo arm.

Bad Horsie joins a long line of variations of Steve Vai's JEM signature models, which were first introduced at the Chicago NAMM show in June 1987. The guitars are considered some of the most important instruments in the history of the electric guitars. Many JEM collectors own one of every model ever made.

A hardshell case is included.

Ibanez JEM77B Steve Vai Bad Horsie Electric Guitar Reviews

"Only the best guitar in the world!"
Feature:
this is the easiest guitar to play. since it has the all access neck joint, it is much easier to play higher up the neck than on a normal neck joint. i personally think that the monkey grip helps set this guitar apart from any other strat style type guitar. the mirror finish is also very eye-catching.

Quality:
this guitar shows you the difference in quality between a 250 dollar guitar and this guitar, over $2000. it definetly shows in quality and playability. the finish was perfect, no blemishes, scratches, or dings. this would be an ideal guitar to rely on,at home, in the studio, or on the road. no matter the situation.

Value:
this definetly is worth the money, though i wish that they would lower the price a bit so its more affordable.

Desirability:
just looking at this guitar in the store made me want it, its so eye-catching, it grabs your attention right away, and as soon as you play it, you want it even more!

Sound:
The Dimarzio Breed pickups are so freaking awesome! The bridge sounds excellent playing lead with a bit of disortion. The middle single coil didn't have any hum, and both the bidge humbucker and middle single rang my notes crystal clear dialing a clean tone. The Dimarzios do the job perfectly. I play alot of Van Halen, so the PAFs and the vox tube amp gave me the exact tone i have been looking for. i think that i would use the neck and middle pickups more than i ever have before now that they don't sound muddy.

Support:
i haven't bought one, so i wouldn't be able to tell, though im sure this wouldn't need any service. its perfect straight from the factory. all the stock parts wouldn't need replacing.

Overall:
if i had the money, i would buy as many of these as possible. long lasting guitar that won't give out on you.
