Up for sale, a 1991 Ibanez JEM77-FP Steve Vai signature model in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. One of the longest-running JEM iterations, this early JEM features a Floral Pattern (FP) finish, reportedly modeled after curtains in Vai’s home.
Tonewoods include a basswood body, maple neck, and 24-fret rosewood fingerboard. The HSH trio of DiMarzio pickups comprise a pair of PAF Pro humbuckers in the neck and bridge positions and a JEM single coil in the middle: the PAF Pro is one of DiMarzio’s classic humbucker designs, delivering the open, articulate sound of a PAF with more presence and cut, ensuring no muddiness when played with heavy processing. It has an ideal blend of snap and chunk, with a spike in the midrange that provides a subtle “aw” vowel sound, described by DiMarzio as “like a wah-wah pedal stopped in the middle." These full-sounding pickups pair well with the sparkling cut and snap of the DiMarzio JEM single coil at positions two and four on the switch. This JEM77-FP weighs 7lbs 7oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mikes’ Guitar Bar with 9-42 strings, slinky action, and accurate intonation.
Neck Specs:

-Frets: Jumbo, no wear
-Scale Length: 25 1/2”

The subtle burst around the perimeter highlights the floral pattern, and there are just a couple tiny nicks on the body. The smooth satin finish on the neck profile is flawless save for one tiny mark behind the 1st fret that has no impact on playability.
The original padded Ibanez-branded gigbag is included.
