Ibanez JEM77WDP Steve Vai Signature “Woody” Electric Guitar, (Used, Comm)

The Ibanez JEM77WDP Steve Vai Signature “Woody” is a solid-body electric guitar introduced in 2016 as part of Ibanez’s Premium series and produced in Indonesia. It features a mahogany body finished in Charcoal Brown Low Gloss, giving the instrument its distinctive natural wood appearance. The guitar includes the signature “Monkey Grip” handle cut-out, a poplar burl veneer pickguard, matching headstock veneer, and wooden control knobs. A 5-piece maple and walnut Wizard Premium bolt-on neck is paired with a rosewood fingerboard featuring the Tree of Life vine inlay, 24 jumbo frets, and a 25.5-inch scale length.

Electronics use an H-S-H pickup configuration consisting of DiMarzio Dark Matter 2 pickups: a humbucker in the neck position, a single-coil in the middle, and a humbucker in the bridge, all using ceramic magnets. The pickups are controlled through a five-way blade selector, master volume, and master tone controls, providing a wide range of tonal options suitable for high-gain rock, lead playing, and cleaner articulate sounds.

Hardware includes an Ibanez Edge-Zero II double-locking tremolo bridge with locking nut, designed for stable tuning and smooth vibrato operation. Additional specifications include Cosmo Black hardware, a 43 mm nut width, and Premium fret edge treatment for smoother playability. The JEM77WDP remained in production from 2016 to 2018 and was later discontinued, making it one of the more distinctive wood-finished models within Steve Vai’s JEM signature lineup.
