Sonically spellbinding electronics

The Ibanez JS1GD’s DiMarzio Satchur8 bridge humbucker produces an endless assortment of tones, from articulate high-gain legato lines to pristinely clean arpeggios — ideal for an artist like Joe who regularly runs the tonal gamut. At the neck, a single-coil Sustainiac driver enables you to harness intense, predictable, infinite feedback sustain on demand. A push-pull switch on the JS1GD’s tone knob activates the Sustainiac circuit, and you also get a 3-way toggle that selects between Harmonic, Normal, and Mixed sustain modes. To top it off, the volume pot’s built-in highpass filter cleans up your tone and enables the JS1GD to easily cut through even the busiest of mixes.

Original Edge double-locking tremolo

The JS1GD comes equipped with Ibanez’s original Edge tremolo, which many guitarists consider one of the finest locking trems ever built. Numerous guitarists here share the same enthusiasm for the original Edge, which we’ve been using and abusing since its 1986 unveiling. Regardless of your preferences, we’re confident that you’ll find the JS1GD’s Edge to be among the most reliable double-locking trems you’ll ever use. You can pull the bar all the way up, then slam it down to the body as much as you want; follow it up with a rich jazzy chord voicing, and it’ll stay perfectly in tune. The JS1GD also features Joe Satriani’s preferred Ultralite tremolo arm, which has a thicker carbon graphite grip for extra durability and fine-tuned trem control.
