High-performance Joe Satriani Signature
For maximum playability and tonal diversity, look no further than the Ibanez Joe Satriani Signature JS1CR. This axe features a balanced-sounding alder body — the sonic foundation for some of the most enduring pieces of contemporary music. Enjoy exceptional playability, courtesy of a 3-piece maple/bubinga neck. Inject your playing with loads of harmonics and definition, by virtue of a DiMarzio Satchur8 bridge humbucker, while a Sustainiac circuit delivers infinite sustain and thick feedback with a flip of a switch. Beyond that, a push-pull highpass filter greatly expands your sonic options. The JS1CR includes an Edge tremolo, which supplies twisting, bending, and dive-bombing with reliable intonation.
Note: To honor the world-renowned Joe Satriani Signature Series, the Ibanez R&D team worked closely with Joe to develop a finish that was worthy of both Joe's approval, and of the Chrome Boy moniker. Each and every JS1 Chrome Boy will have passed stringent Ibanez quality control standards; however due to the unique nature of this striking finish, some minor imperfections may be expected, are considered normal.
Thin, rigid neck and treated frets for maximum playability
You'll find that the JS neck profile on the JS1CR gives you a solid fretting foundation while allowing you to play as fast as you like. It's a 3-piece maple/bubinga neck, too, which is more rigid than a 1-piece neck and transfers vibration better. Capping the JS neck is a 24-fret rosewood fingerboard, loaded with medium frets that offer an amazingly fluid feel.
DiMarzio humbucker and Sustainiac circuit deliver unlimited tonal versatility
Whatever tone you're searching for, you'll be able to achieve it with the Joe Satriani Signature JS1CR. Its DiMarzio Satchur8 bridge humbucker serves up glorious high-output tones with loads of harmonics and definition. A Sustainiac pickup in its neck features a special circuit that lets notes ring on as long as you like. Just kick in the Sustainiac circuit, play a note or chord, and prepare yourself for infinite sustain.
Highpass filter enhances highs when you roll your volume down
Many guitarists at Sweetwater work our guitar's volume knob as part of our playing style. That's why we love the JS1CR. Its volume control houses a push-pull highpass filter that prevents you from losing your high-frequency edge when you've got your volume rolled back. This lets you keep your definition and edge when you're cleaning up your tone, then easily switch to full-bore tone when you want to send your amp into overdrive territory.
