Presenting the all new Ibanez Joe Satriani Signature JS3CR "Chrome Boy" Limited Edition.
From Ibanez about this model:
"2023 marks the 35th anniversary of the Ibanez JS line, the iconic signature guitar series of world renowned multi platinum recording artist and guitarist Joe Satriani. To commemorate this very special anniversary, Joe and Ibanez have collaborated once again to release the new Ibanez JS3CR. The JS3CR takes inspiration from the entire legacy of the JS line, and its specs illustrate Joe’s desire to create a new model that both nods to the past while also embracing new innovations. It features the classic 22 fret JS neck of the original JS models, along with return of the two full sized humbucker pickup configuration. The Ibanez JS3CR also features the return of a basswood body in the chrome finished JS lineup. The DiMarzio Satchur8 bridge and PAF Pro neck pickup
combination was carefully chosen by Joe in order to offer the best tonal combination with the JS3CR’s basswood body. The combination of specs and aesthetics help the JS3CR become the modern day successor to one of Joe’s most beloved and recognized guitars, his JS “Chrome Boy”."
Key Features of the JS3CR include:
Maple neck: The Maple neck provides stability and bright tonal character.
Rosewood fretboard: A Rosewood fretboard provides a well-balanced solid tone with a focused mid range.
Medium frets with Prestige fret edge treatment: The Medium sized frets enhance the accuracy of your notes, and the Prestige Fret Edge Treatment guarantees effortlessly fast playing.
DiMarzio® PAF Pro® / DiMarzio® Satchur8™ pickups: The DiMarzio® PAF Pro® pickups produce an open and clean low end with a carefully tweaked treble side that helps cut through the mix. DiMarzio® Satchur8™ pickup fully supports Joe's versatile playing style and massive sound.
Gotoh® machine heads: The Gotoh® machine heads provide superior precision, a smooth feel, and excellent tuning accuracy.
Edge tremolo: The masterpiece Edge tremolo bridge offers exceptional tuning stability, precise intonation adjustment, and playing comfort.
High-Pass filter on volume control: A high pass filter on the volume pot maintains highs at low volumes.
Coil-tap switch on tone control (push/pull): The push/pull coil tap adds sound and tonal variations for pickups.
Hardshell case included: The Ibanez Hardshell case gives extreme protection for your beloved instrument.
Ultralite Tremolo Arm™ included: The Ultralite Tremolo Arm™ achieved a significant reduction in weight by utilizing Carbon Graphite for the grip, resulting in less interaction with strings and more sensitive control of the tremolo arm movement.
Custom Chrome Finish
Stock photos shown, individual grain will vary from guitar to guitar:
"To honor the world-renowned Joe Satriani Signature Series, the Ibanez R&D team worked closely with Joe to develop a finish that was worthy of both Joe's approval, and of the Chrome Boy moniker. Each and every JS3CR will have passed stringent Ibanez quality control standards, however due to the unique nature of this striking finish, some minor imperfections may be expected, are considered normal."
