Holy moly this thing is super clean!

Ibanez JS 1 Joe Satriani 1991 White | Reverb

The price is up there... But WOW it's just on point. Even the neck plate screws are clean! Not a spec of corrosion on the hardware either. 🤤

At that price, I will happily consider a premium JS. Great collector grade that one though.

 

[ZR1 Zeus]

Damn I want that. 🤦‍♂️

 

[ZR1 Zeus]

Would it be crazy to sell my JPM 100 for something like this?? God it would be hard to part ways with it. 🤦‍♂️

 

[JsXLine6]

Wellll.... That depends on why you're buying it. You gotta ask yourself that question... The JPM is no longer even made in any way. Do you play the JPM? The JS1 is really clean... It's hard to see any blemishes since it's white, and it is out of the country... It's even got the thicker horns like a radius before they changed it a bit. Would you plan on playing the JS?

 

[JsXLine6]

Plus they feel very different. Both have humbuckers... You're not losing any character when it comes with "type" of sound. Do you own a JS already?

 

[ZR1 Zeus]

I play the JPM. I love it. I don’t think it gets recognition in the guitar world

 

[ZR1 Zeus]

I’ll be honest, I have original case I have certificate I have a pic of original bill of sale etc

Well the JS will feel and play very differently to the JPM. If you love the JPM I would keep it. The JS... 10" radius, chunkier c shaped strat like neck... No scarf joint for the headstock... The action can easily be at 1-1.5mm at the 12th fret... But a neck radius like that will inherently not be as low. I only mentioned these specifics because you never said you owned a JS or have owned one. If you do... Then I am just full of hot air going on about stuff you would clearly already know lol. While it is a rare and an awesome JS... Specs wise it's the same as a JS1000. And they are much cheaper... And you can from time to time find a white js1000 for a lot less than that! Though the js1 may feel better because it's in the glory days of fujigen.

🤓🤓🤓 Geeking out over here.

You convinced me. It’s a cool guitar. I actually play it a lot

I’ll JPM 100. I love it. I do the way it plays and the pick ups.

If there's anyone on here that wants to buy it for a collection!!! Looking at you @OCDemon... (Though knowing you, you probably already have one 😆.) That's why I posted it in the first place.

 

[OCDemon]

Ha! Not at that price. I don't have a white one, well, I do, but it's been coated in silver. I have two JS1s they are both fantastic.

[OCDemon]

that chrome has fogged up really bad over the last 15 years or so...it doesn't look that good, but it feels and sounds really unique.

 

[JsXLine6]

Wow awesome 😲. There's something awesome about a mint Chrome boy... But something just as awesome as a worn and played one. I'd love to see the aging honestly. It would be cool to see the contrast.

 

[OCDemon]

I'd have to hunt around for a recent picture. I'll see if I can find one

 

[OCDemon]

Here it is with some friends...

 

[JsXLine6]

Wow! That has REALLY fogged up. Is it impossible to polish that finish? I can only assume you have tried a few things.
