The Ibanez JEM EVO Steve Vai Signature Limited Edition electric is a truly authentic beauty. This model is as worn in, as expertly designed, and as beatific sounding as Steve's own. Steve Vai is one of the few guitarists universally acknowledged to have pushed the instrument to the point of re-invention. His signature Ibanez very much reflects the player... sublime, awe-inspiring, outrageous -- supremely iconic.

Watch Steve Vai as he introduces the Ibanez JEM-EVO:


The DiMarzio Evolution pickups are also the product of developmental collaboration with Vai. The Maple JEM-EVO neck is about speed, Alder body about sustain, and the vine inlay on the Rosewood fingerboard is about... Steve. The Edge Tremolo is another shining example of Ibanez's mastery of trem design. With a finish that's about as bashful as the man who inspired it, the Jem-Evo is ready to blaze trails. Includes hardshell case, certification of authenticity and a DiMarzio strap.
