Ibanez JEM7VWH 2000

No guitar stands out quite like the Ibanez JEM series, with their signature "Monkey Grip" bodies developed by legendary guitarist Steve Vai. First released in the late 1980s, the JEM series has seen continuous production for nearly 30 years featuring an ever-expanding lineup of instruments. The JEM7V model was first produced in 1993 and is still in production as of 2016.

This JEM7V was built in 2000. The JEM7V has seen several changes to its design over the years, but in 2000 the guitar was still built more or less the same as the originals in 1993--an Alder body with thin basswood veneer is mated to a one-piece Maple neck with Ebony fretboard, topped with an Ibanez Lo-Pro Edge locking tremolo, DiMarzio Evolution pickups, and Gotoh tuners. Frets 21-24 are scalloped.

The condition of this guitar is close to immaculate. Owned by a serious collector, this JEM rarely left its case, and it shows: there are no pick scratches, no fret wear, no buckle rash, no chips, dents, scrapes, chips, cracks, or other damage. There is some pitting on the gold bridge hardware. Guitar includes original Ibanez hard shell case, also in excellent condition.
