Ibanez JS2450 in Muscle Car Purple Electric Guitar, (Used, Comm)

The Ibanez JS2450 in Muscle Car Purple is a Japanese-made signature electric guitar developed for Joe Satriani as part of the Prestige-level JS series. It features an alder body finished in high-gloss Muscle Car Purple, paired with a 3-piece maple and bubinga bolt-on neck and a rosewood fingerboard. The guitar uses a 25.5-inch scale length, 24 frets, and the rounded JS neck profile designed around Satriani’s preference for a smoother, less angular feel compared with traditional RG-style necks.

The hardware specification includes an Ibanez Edge double-locking tremolo bridge, locking nut, chrome-covered pickups, and high-precision Japanese construction from the Fujigen factory. The body shape uses heavily sculpted contours and rounded edges, giving the JS series a more ergonomic feel than flatter superstrat designs. The Prestige fret-edge treatment rounds and polishes fret ends for smoother neck movement and consistent setup precision.

The electronics consist of a DiMarzio Satch Track neck pickup and a DiMarzio Mo’ Joe bridge humbucker controlled through a three-way selector switch. The wiring includes a push/pull coil tap on the tone control and a high-pass filter integrated into the volume control to retain treble response when reducing volume. The configuration provides full humbucker output, split-coil operation, and high-frequency-preserving volume reduction within the same passive circuit layout.
