★ The “PIA3761”—the pinnacle of guitar craftsmanship as envisioned by guitarist Steve Vai!
Now in stock at a great new-item special price!!

Steve himself describes the “PIA3761” as “the evolution of the JEM” and has named this signature model “PIA: Paradise in Art.”
While the body is made of alder, just like the JEM, the body design incorporates new, meticulous details in the body edges, contours, and horns.

~Features~
The symbolic “Petal Grip,” designed to evoke the image of two petals nestled together
The grip design, featuring two flower petals nestled together, is likely to be the most striking feature of the PIA.

A 5-piece maple/walnut PIA neck, shaped to Steve’s preferred grip—just like the JEM

The “PIA Blossom inlay,” which, along with the grip, serves as the signature artwork of the Steve Vai model
In addition to the Tree of Life inlay—a trademark of the JEM—this new inlay was designed exclusively for the PIA, featuring the graceful and beautiful botanical designs frequently seen in Steve’s own artwork.
The fingerboard is made of rosewood, and the side position markers feature glow-in-the-dark Luminlay.

Scalloped Fretboard (21st–24th frets)
The fingerboard features a scalloped profile that is scooped out toward the higher frets.
The frets are jumbo-sized stainless steel frets treated with Prestige Fret Edge Treatment.

“USA-made DiMarzio UtoPIA Pickups” designed specifically for the PIA
These custom pickups were engineered based on the tonal direction Steve has favored in recent years, seeking smoother highs, scooped mids, and a well-defined low end.
All pickup covers feature beautiful embellishments that perfectly align with the guitar’s design concept.

Equipped with a high-pass filter (operated via the push-and-pull volume knob)

Edge tremolo bridge
The Edge, Ibanez’s original tremolo system, which Steve has continued to use for over 30 years.
In addition to easy access to the saddle adjustment bolts, the Lions’ Claw cavity design—a signature feature—is incorporated, just as it is on the JEM.

Magnetic Tremolo Cavity Plate
The cavity plate on the back of the tremolo, shaped like a petal, is screwless and can be easily attached or removed.

Ultra-Lightweight Ultralite Tremolo Arm
The grip is made of lightweight yet durable carbon graphite; its light weight and thick, easy-to-grip design allow for precise tremolo arm control.

◆Included Accessories
Tremolo arm (which doubles as the instruction manual), adjustment wrench, PIA special leaflet, hard-shell case
