Ibanez PIA3761 Steve Vai, Stallion White

Ibanez PIA3761 Steve Vai, Stallion White Overview

This version of the Ibanez PIA3761 is new for 2021 and features a sophisticated Stallion White finish. It’s also available in a sleek Onyx Black.

The stunning Ibanez PIA (Paradise in Art) series is an evolution of the JEM, a game-changing super-strat that’s known for its laser-fast playability and powerful tone. With fresh updates across the board, this latest Via signature model is arguably his finest yet.

The Ibanez PIA represents the dynamic and masterful nature of its creator - guitar virtuoso Steve Vai - and is a culmination of years of collaboration. Boasting an elegant look (sporting gold hardware, a newly designed Blossom Inlay & Petal grip), effortless playability and a commanding sound (thanks to the DiMarzio UtoPIA pickups), this is an instrument for players that demand top-class performance.

Overview by Ibanez

Introducing the new Ibanez PIA3761, the evolution of the JEM.

Since 1987, the Ibanez JEM has enjoyed surprising success. It was designed around Steve’s idiosyncrasies as a player and his desire to have a guitar that checked all the boxes. Little did he (and Ibanez) realise how many other people would find their note on this instrument. And now, after almost 35 years of the JEM, although the JEM is still in production and will perhaps be for many years to come, it was time to introduce a new signature guitar that is somewhat of an evolution of the JEM - the PIA.

PIA Blossom inlay

The newly designed PIA Blossom inlay is gorgeous, prominent, and elegantly imparts Steve Vai’s trademark style and artistic vision.

Petal Grip

Exclusively designed for the PIA, the new Petal Grip offers a balanced, contemporary design aesthetic. It’s also meant to symbolize unity, companionship, and interpersonal bonds.

DiMarzio UtoPIA pickups

Based on Steve’s latest tonal preferences, DiMarzio UtoPIA pickups are voiced for smoother highs, more scooped mids, and more pronounced low-end. The pickups incorporate beautiful aesthetics and design elements meant to complement the cosmetic features of the guitar.

Edge Tremolo

The Edge tremolo bridge and groundbreaking Lion’s Claw tremolo cavity allow for rapidly increasing and lowering pitch with dramatic range and an intense voice.

Magnetic Tremolo Cavity Plate

The tremolo cavity plate is held in place magnetically, allowing for quick removal and reinstallation when changing strings or adjusting the tremolo system.
