This is an original 1991 Ibanez Jem 77BFP Steve Vai signature built in Japan and in pretty great condition for 26 years old. This guitar has had no modifications and is all original except for the volume, tone and switch knobs which were replaced with white ones painted blue. I have ordered an original replacement set and will include those as well. Fretboard is in very nice condition with some wear through the finish which you can see at the second fret, frets are also very good . All hardware is cosmo black and very bright with the exception of the serial number plate which looks like every other one of its age I've seen. Pickups and all other electronic components look and sound fantastic. Guitar sounds and plays ....well like a Jem should with great tone, speed an access to all frets. Built of course in the legendary Fuji Gen factory in Japan. Now on to the flaws. I have pictured the two worst spots in the finish which is a chip at the corner of the back lower edge and a smaller ding at the top of the headstock, otherwise imperfections are small and not through the finish. There are also of course the typical cracks at the neck pocket which I will try to photograph. This is a great collectors piece and a really good example given its age. Guitar will come with tremolo bar and an Ibanez Prestige Deluxe hard shell case which I am unsure was original to guitar.
