Manufacturer's Description and Specs:
Designed in collaboration with Steve Vai, the Ibanez Steve Vai PIA3761C is a sonically versatile, high-performance solidbody electric guitar. It features a balanced-sounding alder body — the tonal basis for some of the most enduring pieces of contemporary music. Enjoy super-fast playability, courtesy of a 5-piece PIA neck with Ibanez's Prestige fret end treatment, while DiMarzio UtoPIA pickups deliver maximum impact and power. An Edge tremolo supplies twisting, bending, and dive-bombing with reliable intonation. The PIA3761C boasts Steve Vai's trademark appointments, including a yin/yang-style Monkey Grip handle and an eye-catching PIA Blossom fingerboard inlay.
One of Ibanez's fastest necks to date, the 5-piece PIA neck on the Steve Vai PIA3761C is an absolute pleasure to play. This slim and super-comfortable neck lets you pull off lightning-fast runs and arpeggios with ease, but it still gives you the substance you need for grabbing chords when you need to. The PIA3761C includes stainless steel frets, the last four of which are scalloped. What's more, the PIA3761C has received Ibanez's Prestige fret-end treatment. This essentially rounds off the edges of the frets, making the PIA3761C's fretboard feel even more fluid. From the first time you put your hands on the PIA3761C's PIA neck, you'll know you've got a guitar that was built with performance in mind.
The HSH configuration has been a longtime favorite among tone seekers, and this preference led to the trio of killer UtoPIA pickups loaded in the Steve Vai PIA3761C. The neck position humbucker is voiced for warmer, richer tone, while the bridge humbucker is a brilliant lead pickup: vibrant yet snarling with an enhanced midrange output when you push it. In between, you get a high-output single-coil that serves up traditional spank 'n' sparkle on its own and plays nice with the humbuckers in blade positions two and four. If you're after maximum tonal tenacity, then the PIA3761C will give your amplifier what you need.
The Steve Vai PIA3761C's Edge tremolo was designed by Ibanez to give you the fast tremolo response and snap you need to pull off sharp bends and flutters. The extreme stability of this knife-edge-style trem's stud lock function is also one of the many reasons it's a favorite among many of today's top shredders. And thanks to the Lion's Claw tremolo cavity, you can bend notes to radical extremes and back again with incredible precision. The PIA3761C also includes an Ultralite tremolo arm for maximum trem-manipulating comfort.
