The Ibanez Steve Vai PIA3761C-BLP Blue Powder in detail:
The Steve Vai PIA3761C-BLP Blue PowderSignature electric guitar is the "Paradise In Art" christened next evolutionary stage of the model developed together with the legendary guitar virtuoso. Here naturally optimized to the smallest details playing characteristics meet the extremely flexible sounds of the specially developed DiMarzio UtoPIA pickups so that the guitar turns out to be an all-rounder for every playing technique and musical style. In addition to the alder body with petal grip and the bolt-onmaple-walnut neck, Ibanez relies on a rosewood fingerboard with stainless steel fretting and PIA Blossom inlay. Last but not least, an Edge double-locking tremolo and Gotoh tuners complete the PIA3761C-BLP Blue Powder Signature electric guitar from Ibanez.
The Ibanez Steve Vai PIA3761C-BLP Blue Powder convinces with extremely agile playing characteristics and the flexible sounds of its DiMarzio UtoPIA pickups.

Electric guitar with extremely agile playing characteristics.
The next evolutionary step of the legendary JEM, the Ibanez PIA naturally impresses with extroverted looks and agile playing characteristics. With subtly modified lines and more rounded edges, the alder body offers comfortable handling, while the Petal Grip and Lion's Claw routing for the Tremolo add visual accents. Four-bolted, the flat maple-walnut neck offers smooth playing characteristics all the way to the highest layers of the rosewood fingerboard, where the intricate PIA Blossom inlay marks the layers. Stainless steel frets in jumbo format and scalloping from the 21st to the 24th fret also promise smooth bendings.
With DiMarzio UtoPIA pickups and a switchable high-pass filter, the Ibanez Steve Vai PIA3761C delivers fluid sounds.
DiMarzio UtoPIA pickups and high-pass filter
The electrical tone conversion of the Steve Vai PIA is handled by DiMarzio UtoPIA pickups specially developed for the electric guitar, whose elaborate design is perfectly integrated into the overall look. As an evolutionary step of the legendary Evolution pickups, the bridge-placed DiMarzio UtoPIA bridge humbucker impresses with a tight Bass response and a sweet treble spectrum that presents every note with precision and control. For fluid soloing and fat-clean sounds, on the other hand, the DiMarzio UtoPIA neck humbucker is recommended, while the UtoPIA single-coil in the middle position comes up with a lively and treble-rich sound. To prevent the low frequencies from gaining the upper hand and dulling the sound when the volume control is turned down, the push-pull switch activates a high-pass filter if desired, which provides harmonic brilliance.
Gotoh tuners promise accurate tuning of the Ibanez PIA3761C electric guitar.
Edge Tremolo with Ultralite lever
As a Steve Vai Signature electric guitar, the Ibanez PIA3761C-BLP Blue Powder naturally features an Ibanez Edge double-locking tremolo for detune-free vibratos. The Lion's Claw milling under the system allows wide bendings up and down, while the Ultralite tremolo lever made of carbon is especially comfortable in the hand. The spring chamber is closed by a practical magnetic cover for quick access to the tremolo springs for adjustments. Behind the locking saddle, Gotoh tuners also ensure precise Tuning of the electric guitar.
