The Ibanez PIA3761 Steve Vai Signature is an evolution of the JEM, Vai's groundbreaking guitar first released in 1987. Three years in development, the PIA (Paradise in Art) features a contoured alder body with a “Petal Grip,” DiMarzio pickups with baroque-style covers, Edge tremolo with a carbon fiber whammy bar and an intricate “Blossom” inlay spanning the fretboard. Vai calls the PIA a “more organic, more comfortable” instrument. It’s ideal for precision players who can exploit the advanced electronics and appreciate the balanced design of a guitar made for a modern-day master.
A flexible, well-balanced tremolo has been an integral part of Steve Vai's playing style since the first JEM hit the streets. The PIA boasts the latest version of Ibanez' Edge locking tremolo system with a carbon fiber bar and a locking nut for serious stability, no matter how extreme your whammy bar use may get. Aesthetically, the gold finish matches perfectly the sophistication of the rest of the guitar.
For the technically inclined rock/shred/fusion player, the Ibanez Steve Vai Signature PIA is a superb choice. From its stunningly unique looks to the quality of fit and finish, this guitar was designed to enable the most daring flights of fretwork with an extraordinary range of tone and inflection. For full protection, the guitar includes a deluxe hardshell case.
