Limited-edition Joe Satriani Signature Chrome Boy

Marking the 35th anniversary of Joe Satriani’s famed JS model, the limited-edition Ibanez JS3CR delivers high-octane playability and extreme tonal diversity. This solidbody electric guitar features a basswood body — a longtime favorite of shred guitarists, as its defined, mid-forward acoustic tone will cut through the busiest of mixes. Enjoy exceptional playing comfort, courtesy of a bolt-on maple neck with Satch’s custom JS shape and a 22-fret, 9.8-inch-radius rosewood fingerboard, which has been optimized with Ibanez’s Prestige edge treatment. Inject your playing with loads of harmonics and definition by virtue of DiMarzio Satchur8 and PAF Pro humbuckers. Beyond that, a push-pull highpass filter and coil-split greatly expand your sonic options. The JS3CR also includes Gotoh machine heads and an Edge double-locking tremolo, facilitating twisting, bending, and dive-bombing with rock-solid stability. Ibanez really outdid itself with this newest iteration of Satch’s signature Chrome Boy — it’s the best JS yet!

Rigid, eminently playable neck and treated frets

You’ll find that the JS neck profile on the JS3CR gives you a solid fretting foundation while allowing you to play as fast as you like. It’s graphite reinforced, too, giving it added stability and outstanding vibration transfer. Capping the JS neck is a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard, turbocharged by Ibanez’s Prestige fret edge treatment and loaded with medium frets. You also get a tilt neck joint for maximum playing comfort.

High-octane DiMarzio humbuckers

Whatever tone you’re searching for, you can achieve it with the Ibanez JS3CR. Its DiMarzio Satchur8 bridge humbucker churns out glorious high-output tones with loads of harmonics and definition. In contrast, its DiMarzio PAF Pro neck humbucker serves up a slicing tone with an open, expressive character.

Highpass filter enhances highs when you roll your volume down

Its volume control houses a push-pull highpass filter that prevents you from losing your high-frequency edge when your volume is rolled back. This keeps your definition and edge when you’re cleaning up your tone, and you can easily switch to full-bore tone when you want to send your amp into overdrive territory.
