Description
If ever there was a name you would immediately associate with Ibanez guitars, it's super shredder Joe Satriani. Joe has been an endorsee of Ibanez for over 30 years and his signature JS series guitars have remained largely unchanged in that time. Joe certainly knows what he likes and rightly so!
Features
The Ibanez JS140M features a Basswood body with Joe's sleek JS body shape, signature JS profile Maple neck and a 24 fret Maple fingerboard. Joe has typically favoured Rosewood fingerboards in the past and the Maple board on the JS140M provides a little more brightness and top end than some of his other models. This can really help cut through the mix in a band situation.
A pair of passive Infinity RD (Neck) and Quantum (Bridge) humbuckers provide an array of tones, both humbucker and single coil, thanks to the coil tap function. Essentially, what you get with the JS140M is an ergonomic shred machine that will cover just about any tone you might need! Add to that an Edge-Zero II Tremolo bridge and you'll be performing guitar acrobatics with maximum comfort and tuning stability.
