EvO:R Guitar Kits - JEM Style Kit
Note: Some assembly required.
In 1987 Ibanez Introduced the Jem series that was designed along with Steve Vai.
These guitars were a new direction for Ibanez.
Steve Vai was playing with David Lee Roth on the Eat-em and Smile tour.
When some one stole all his guitars. He needed some guitars fast so he
purchased some parts from Performance and had them modified. Ibanez sent
him for Christmas in 1986 a modified Maxxas guitar that had 24 frets and
a Green Snake skin finish. Steve than sent one of the guitars that he
had modified to Ibanez to see if they could reproduce it.
There were 3 models made all with
the same body style and neck but three different materials. One was
Mahogany one was Alder and the third was Basswood. Steve liked the sound
the best of the American Basswood also it was much lighter than the
other models. At this point they decided to move ahead with the model
development.
The Tremolo rout was designed so the tremolo could be pulled up a full
fifth. At this time there was a guy in New York by the name of Joe Dispagney that was
painting, modifying and assembling the guitars for Steve. He always
would put the monkey grips in the guitars so Steve had Ibanez do the
same.
