During our long partnership with Joe Satriani, Ibanez has released countless JS signature models. Some of the most sought-after JS models have been the elusive Chrome-finished JS guitars. Although immensely popular, the process to plate the 3-D curved body has been difficult to achieve at a manufacturing level. That is, until now. Taking the opportunity to celebrate our 30-year relationship with Joe, Ibanez is pleased to announce the JS1CR. The latest and greatest Chrome JS will be available in 2018.
The specifications are inspired by Joe's recent preferences: a 24 frets neck, Sustainiac electronics, and DiMarzio(R) Satchur8(TM) pickup. The guitar also includes a special case to protect its unique finish from damages during transportation.
Each JS1CR produced in 2018 will come with a limited edition JS1CR30 commemorative back plate.
