Designed and played by the Master of Tone, Joe Satriani, this piece, simply put, is an ultra-modern guitar with a vintage feel. If you know how exacting Joe is in getting the best tones in the business, then by definition his signature model has to be a great guitar. Once you've experienced this guitar, you will realize that it was designed to be like Joe himself-capable of out-of-this-world sonic speed, extraordinary musicality, and tone, tone, and more tone. The lightweight, aerofoil-shaped basswood body provides comfort, upper fret access, and expressive, singing tone. A tilt-output jack ensures your guitar cable stays put during even the most active performances while coil taps on both pickups provide for single or humbucking tone. Furthermore, the combination of a 25 1/2 neck scale and Ibanez Axis pickups allows wide dynamic range and tonal versatility. "
