USED Ibanez / JS1000 Joe Satriani Black Pearl [3.67 kg]

This is the Ibanez Joe Satriani Signature JS1000 (early model), crafted for Joe Satriani—a longtime fan of the Signature Series (JS Series) who is known not only as an instrumental rock guitarist but also for his numerous sessions and his work with Chicken Foot.

It features a basswood body, a JS-shaped maple neck, a rosewood fingerboard, and DiMarzio PAF PRO & FRED pickups. It incorporates a high-pass filter activated by the Volume knob (Vol-Pull) and coil tap activated by the Tone knob (Tone-Pull), along with a Lo-Pro Edge tremolo system.

Part of the JS series, which boasts a perfect fit and outstanding playability, this guitar offers a wide range of expressive possibilities thanks to its coil tap and high-pass filter.

The studs have been lowered to reduce string action; as a result, the tremolo spring mounting plate protrudes from the back panel.Signs of use are visible (including discoloration, multiple dents around the headstock and along the outer edges of the body, minor scratches and scrapes, scuffs and playing marks, picking marks, buckle marks, and discoloration, clouding, pitting, and rust on metal parts and screws, among other cosmetic damage).

It was set up upon arrival (cleaning, string replacement, truss rod adjustment, octave adjustment, string height adjustment, and fret leveling); the frets are at a height that poses no problem for playing, and the truss rod can be adjusted both tight and loose—its operation has been confirmed up to ±60°.

Condition Grade: B+: Some scratches are present, but the instrument is suitable for normal use.
