Made in Japan (17 piece in the world), it has 24 frets, 2 DiMarzio Air Norton (neck) and Tone Zone (chevalet.1 volume 1 tone and a 5-way switch for pickups.
Vibrato is a lo pro edge floyd rose.
The handle is made of ebony and mahogany guitar.

UTILIZATION

The handle is of a J-Custom, ie the wood is carefully chosen with respect to any other model of the brand.
The key is ebony. The handle is very comfortable and allows for any feats, access to treble is excellent.
The shape is that of a row of mahogany and the weight is heavier than basswood (jem, js) but lighter than a single row.
Mahogany gives the Tone Zone sustain remarkable.

SOUNDS

I play beacoup style music, I am particularly a fan of guitar like Steve Vai, Satriani, Ron Thal, malmsteen, ... my playing technique and my sound this guitar makes me perfectly suited to my style musique.Mais course with this kind of instrument you can play the blues like good metal, the sound is to go!
The sound is crystalline, very precise like a good Start, and of course different to the fat issue a Les Paul.
I play a Mesa Boogie Nomad 45 with a whammy, mxr a Dimebag Darrell, a cry baby and a chorus, flanger ibanez of CE5, I have access to any sound, I switch to the type of pantera santana, It is true that it is better to have the following hardware to take advantage of its sound.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 5 years.
The best: everything
The least: Nothing
try another model: A little all the ibanez that there was a Gebelin in Marseille (jem, js, rg ,...), I have already test gibson, fender on, and on the other
The quality report is correct, it is a very high-end personalized, since there are only 17
I do it again this choice without hesitation, I have a very personal sound, a guitar that can be any acrobatics to sustain and with a crazy thanks to the very pleasant ebony handle the price of a jem
