Look under richs website under used in the satriani section. It explains the difference between the Js1 and the new line.

I believe one of the biggest traits of a JS1 is the headstock logo, as it's the old school black headstock with the white logo. Other features include the locking nut having the straight-through mounting bolts, Edge trem, and locking studs.

[nico86]

for you,is it a JS1 ?

[moebius]

Post some additional pictures. That one is not very diagnostic.

[Rich]

It's either a JS1 or a very early 1000, the cavity has been toyed with and then the Schaller spring claw adjuster added.

others pictures...







thanks Rich for your details,but it is very hard for me to understand your technics words....

With these other pictures,can you tell me approximatly how much cost this guitare,please?

[Rich]

Probably the same refretted 91' JS1 somebody in France was trying to sell me last week for 1100E.

[nico86]

you think that it is too much?

for you Rich,we must buy it how many?



ps : so for you it is a real JS1 ?

[Rich]

Too much to the US [for a dealer], plus the risk of an international deal and the terrible exchange rates. If it's clean it's not bad if you're already paying with E. See the clean JS1BK that sold for $3k in the UK [although, that was too much, but as long as the buyer is happy [and he was] then no harm, no foul].

thanks Rich

so i will tell you if i will do the deal.

But for you and with the pictures i show you,can i be sure that it is a JS1?

[nico86]

can you tell me why there are some js 1000,where there is written on the neck "JS CUSTOM"?
Are thes models better than the otheres or not?

thanks
