"With 24 frets, a deeper cutaway, and my Mo' Joe and Satch Track pickup combination, these guitars are liberating to play. I love the new JS models."
– Joe Satriani –
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.
