Made in Japan by team J craft (very high end Ibanez).
Basswood body color "Champagne Gold" very difficult to make a picture but beautiful and varied in color depending on lighting.
JS handle shape in 1 piece maple.
Tremolo floyd "fixed Edge bridge"
Dimarzio PAF PRO in neck
Dimarzio Fred bridge
Split micro push-pull volume pot on the tone
Ditto on the high pass knob volume
Supplied in hard case of very good quality.

UTILIZATION

Designed in close collaboration with Satriani, the handle is a highway.
In fact, we have the same feeling no matter where you place your hand from beginning to the end of the handle.
Very surprising (the only of my guitar with this feeling) and terribly pleasant.
The frets are thinner (Dunlop 6105) that conventional jumbo mounted on 80% of market models.
The bridge is a Floyd from A to Y. ..
In fact it is fixed.
There are specific settings with the "fine tuners", fixing ropes above but fixed.
A little confusing for a fan of Satch, but soon we discover a place of unparalleled agreement and sustain that durrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre much longer than the model with floyd "classic".
Dixit international criticism about this model compared with the standard (JS1000/1200). I do not mean the JS model 100 which is more or less than basic guitar signature model disguised as ...

Light can play for hours without feeling any discomfort.
Very pleasant to play also seated, she leans in any direction.
The body is shaped around and provides a feeling of comfort incredible.
Access to acute is great because the designers have gone to profile the junction body / handle angle.

SOUNDS

Is connected and it sounds ................. Satriani (without the fingers of course!)
It's bluffing.
For once, we are selling a clear signature model, not a cheap trick with a sticker on it!
The knobs respond to any setting with great accuracy, the split really brings a crystalline sound on the neck pickup and Fred turns the machine bluesy riffs.
The high pass knob the volume is very effective and useful. Usually when we decrease the volume on a standard guitar, you lose the highs gradually.
And there, as neni. We keep everything even reached the end of the race. Great to spend a very limited his big crunch to a saturation tower knob and this remaining set from beginning to end.
The only problem is that this system would run continuously while there he is on record volume pot which can interfere when we play. A small modification on the welds and it's done ...
The two microphones mounted on the JS2000 has been described in up and down, across, refer to the criticism about them. What is certain is that the PAF Pro is a killer for use in all styles and that Fred is quite typed Satch ...
But when you buy a signature guitar is that you want this sound.

OVERALL OPINION

I play on it for almost a year now and the least we can say is that the guitar is the most enjoyable (and far) that I have ever played.
I have 7 and I've already sold 3, all brands and styles combined.
The neck, body, knobs ... all the details of this guitar are thought by the designers and "Satriani himself", and it is reflected.

This model is a limited edition that is no longer produced.
His biggest fault, towards the fans, is his easel floyd fixed.
This gives it a higher level but not its "dive bombing" with ...
I love this guitar even if it is true that it is oriented modern sounds.
I would never find any design defect but cons must recognize that it is typed. The sound of "Satch" what.
