Ibanez JEMJRSP Steve Vai Signature Electric Guitar Pink

Great guitar for the price! Is it Steve Vai's 7V "Evo"? No. Is it as good as a Premium or Prestige Ibanez? No. Can it be? YES! Out of the box, it is a good playing guitar. It will need a little setup to be absolutely perfect. Change the volume and tone knobs (yellow, pink ones), and you have an inexpensive Jem 777V from 1988-91. The tremolo is a licensed Floyd Rose, and not an Ibanez Edge. That is the one thing I would have wanted different from Ibanez. Other than that, great guitar for the money.

Tremolo is trash. The low grade material used to make the tailpiece wears at the fulcrum point, keeping it from returning to level. I was aware of this prior to purchasing and prepared myself to replace it. I hoped I would have gotten a month or two out of it, but it didn't hold up from day one. Ended up returning.

Very easy to tune, and holds that tune well. Mine was an open box model that still had all of the plastic film in place. The electronics ate solid, the sound is great; especially for a guitar in this price range, and the action is silky smooth. This is a great guitar for pretty much any use.

Guitar good tune but string came to me rusty 2 fret buzz

I eyeballed this on the wall for about 6 months. I am not a fan of signature guitars or guitars at the low end of the middle price range. I purchased an $800 Schecter instead. Took it home and hated it. Returned it and bought this expecting to be a little disappointed. I was not. The whammy bar is awesome. This guitar will play anything. From Santana to the crazy sound effects in Rage Against the Machine songs. This is the only guitar I have been able to just pick up, plug in, and play People of the Sun and Black Magic Woman without having to change amp settings. I bought the pink one. I might buy the yellow one too. This is not a con its just what it is. Be prepared for a learning curve on changing the strings and tuning. You have to loosen the locks at the nut. Then screw the fine tuning pegs out 2/3rds to 3/4 of the way. Tune the guitar and lock them down. Lock the strings down 2 at a time. Dont try to tune all 6 at once. Like i said it is what it is. When you plug it back in and hit the whammy bar it's worth it every time.

I have always wanted to own a Jem 777, but could not afford one. The JemJr. has all of the looks and playability of the original, but at an affordable price. Was truly surprised by how good the pickups sound.
