Guitarist Steve Vai has reached the pinnacle of guitar playing.

New model: BLP (Blue Powder) color

-Steve himself positioned the evolution of the JEM as a signature model and named it PIA:Paradise in Art.

Although the body is made of alder like the JEM, the body design includes new details such as the body edges, contours, and horn section.

-Symbolic petal grip designed with the image of petals nestling together

PIA's most impressive grip design is shaped like two flower petals nestled together.

Steve sees this as a visual representation of how two things are connected, creating a synergistic effect with each other, and at the same time considers it to be an important symbol of unity, friendship, and solidarity between people. Masu.

- PIA neck with 5pc maple and walnut structure shaped to Steve's preferred grip, just like JEM

-PIA blossom inlay, which is a piece of art that symbolizes the Steve Vai model along with the grip

This is a new inlay designed exclusively for PIA, with the elegant and beautiful botanical design image often featured in Steve's own art, as well as JEM's trademark Tree of Life inlay.

The fingerboard is rosewood. The side position mark uses luminescent Luminlay.

-Fingerboard scalloped processing (21~24 frets)

It features a scalloped fingerboard with a scooped high fret section.

-Jumbo size stainless steel frets (w/Prestige fret edge treatment)

-USA made DiMarzio UtoPIA pickups designed for PIA

This is a special pickup that has been created based on Steve's recent tonal preferences, seeking a smoother high range, scooped midrange, and clear low range.

All pickup covers feature beautiful decorations that perfectly match the guitar's design concept.

-Push-pull operation of volume knob with high pass filter. Activates when volume knob is pulled.

-Magnetic tremolo cavity plate that can be attached and detached without any installation screws

The cavity plate on the back of the tremolo, shaped like a petal design, is screwless.

Easy to attach and detach, no need to lose mounting screws. Tremolo adjustment becomes easier.

*A white protective sticker is pasted on the product's magnetic tremolo cavity plate in advance to prevent scratches during transportation and display.

-Includes ultra-light Ultralite Tremolo Arm

The grip part is made of carbon graphite, which is lightweight and durable, and its light weight and easy-to-grip thick grip enable delicate arm operation.
