Want a guitar with a mega-modern look and pristine tone? Look no further -- this axe is for you. The Joe Satriani Signature JS1200 is a beauty to behold. A sleek and wavy JS body looks sweet and fits against your front in comfy fashion. DiMarzio PAF-JOE DP213 and FRED DP153 humbuckers fuse a dynamic tone akin to Joe Satriani's singular style. A high-pass filter and a push/pull tone knob for coil-splitting gives your dynamic JS1200 even more room for tonal exploration. Finally, your Prestige maple neck will bring your shredding skills to higher speeds.

Modern Look -- Vintage Feel

Your JS1200 sports an ultra-modern JS body of lightweight basswood to resonate your mid and higher frequencies. The feel? Well, as Joe Satriani himself said, "I wanted a guitar with a modern sound, but with a vintage feel, with smaller frets and more radius on the fingerboard. It had to be subtle enough to catch nuances, fast and easy to play."

Prestige Maple Neck with Multi-radius Cut

The close action and comfortable handling of your JS1200's Prestige maple neck is addicting to the touch. Acton doesn't get much tighter than Prestige necks, and you'll really be able to push your shredding speeds to the limit with Satriani's must-have neck. A multi-radius cut on this baby is the result of exact digital rendering of Joe Satriani's choice guitar, so you can play with the seemingly effortlessness of Satch's style.

DiMarzio PAF-JOE DP213 and FRED DP153 Humbuckers

The tones you can achieve… read more from the JS1200's pair of DiMarzio humbuckers are, simply stated, sick. Your tonal range spans from clear and well-defined to a punchy drive that tears up the room. Satriani's tone is as impressive as his playing style, and these two beasts will fuel the addictive allure this axe emits. Your tone and volume knobs, along with your three-setting pickup selector blade, all give you more room to stretch the sonic reach of your JS1200.

Coil-tap Switch and High Pass Filter

To give you more control over your JS1200's sound, your volume knob is fitted with a high-pass filter to thin out your signal a bit. Your tone knob also works as a push/pull coil-splitter for your pair of humbuckers. With your knob pushed down, your settings are neck (humbucker), neck and bridge (huumbuckers), and bridge (humbucker). With your tone knob pulled up, you have neck (single-coil closer to bridge), neck (single-coil closer to bridge) and bridge (single-coil closer to neck), and bridge (single-coil closer to neck).
