UV777 (SECOND VERSION) 1998 (First Year of Version Manufacturing)The Ibanez UV777P is a Universe series guitar model and a seven-string signature model of American guitarist Steve Vai, introduced in 1998 and manufactured through 2012. It is also known as the UV777 in the US although there is a different UV model with that name.The introduction of the UV777P in 1998 was a full-fledged return for the UV series after a production halt in 1995 and the sobered UV7S model in 1997. For the UV777P Ibanez went all out with full body and neck binding, disappearing pyramid fingerboard inlay and a special "Light Without Heat" pyramid logo behind the bridge.In terms of specifications, the UV777P went through a couple of changes: In 2003 the Lo Pro Edge 7 tremolo was replaced with the new Edge Pro 7; in 2005 it got a five-ply neck like most Japanese made models. Addition for 2010 is the return of the Lo Pro Edge 7 tremolo.It is similar to UV7, except features disappearing pyramid fingerboard inlay, available in Black finish.
