Used 2018 Ibanez JEM77P Steve Vai signature Blue Floral Pattern serial number I181120722.
This guitar is in excellent condition showing limited playing time.
Steve Vai's signature instruments include the Ibanez JEM guitar, which he designed in 1985 with first-of-its-kind features including the floating tremolo and the monkey grip.
JEM was the name of Joe Despagni's guitar company, a friend of Steve's who did some customization. Ibanez added their ideas to the new RGs that would be produced and the JEM was born.
The JEM is now one of the longest running, most successful signature series guitars in history, and for over a decade its sister model-the RG-is second in worldwide sales only to the Fender Stratocaster.

*Please note: we do our best giving descriptions of used pieces. We have found it impossible to describe every mark on an instrument or amp that is not in the "mint" category. Also, what's important to you may not be important to someone else. For example, you may say, "I don't care what it looks like as long as it plays or sounds well." Another person may say, "Body cosmetics are very important to me so tell me about every scratch, nick and blemish." So, please ask the questions that are most important to you. If you ask they will be answered. They are free and there's no limit. Additional photos can also be made available.
