Ibanez JIVA10, Nita Strauss Signature Electric Guitar, HSH Pickup Configuration, Edge Zero II Tremolo Bridge, Deep Space Blonde Finish

Alice Cooper, The Iron Maidens (internationally renowned Iron Maiden tribute act), and Femme Fatale all have one thing in common: guitar virtuoso Nita Strauss. The session-guitarist supreme has made a hell of a name for herself over the past 15 years, with her high-octane guitar chops and superior musicality making her one of the most sought-after players in the industry – and she now even has her own Signature Series Ibanez!

The Ultimate Modern Metal Guitar

With the Ibanez JIVA10 you get an incredibly built, lightweight, hard-rocking guitar that’s designed to offer the very best playing experience, whatever your play style. Built to satisfy the playing needs rock goddess Nita Strauss, the JIVA10 would make a fantastic centre-piece to any guitar enthusiast’s collection.

Custom-Voiced Pickups

Specially designed by DiMarzio in collaboration with Nita, the Pandemonium neck and bridge humbuckers are a perfect example of “Modern Pickups Done Correctly”. Voiced to work perfectly with the JIVA10’s tonewoods, these pickups offer a wide, versatile array of tones, especially with the True Velvet single coil pickup thrown into the mix in the centre-position.

With the neck-position Pandemonium you get a pickup with coils that are tuned far enough apart to create clean, open mids with sweet highs and lows. Whether you want to play a smooth solo, or an array of pristine, dynamic chords, this pickup will deliver.

Sitting between both humbuckers is an awesome True Velvet Middle Position single coil. The best vintage single-coil pickups have always emphasised a “sweet spot” that gives you a bright sound which is never too piercing, and the DiMarzio True Velvet is expertly tuned to this spot!

In the bridge position, you get a humbucker that is a modern take on a classic rock pickup, with a huge voice that covers a lot of ground. Tuned to capture both solid lows and warm highs, the Pandemonium Bridge Model is ideal for both power chords and face-melting leads.

Super Fast Neck

As with all Ibanez guitars that are built to shred, the JIVA10 features a neck and fretboard that your fingers can glide over with ease. Specially designed to offer the best of both playability and stability, this 3pc Maple/Purpleheart neck fits nicely into your hand and allows fast and easy access to every corner of the fretboard.

Edge Zero II Bridge

The Ibanez JIVA10 features an Edge-Zero II tremolo bridge with Gotoh MG-T locking machineheads and Cosmo Black hardware finishing puts a contrasting touch on this versatile tone machine. As always with Ibanez guitars, the end result is exceptional tuning stability, precise intonation adjustment and unrivalled comfort.
