This Ibanez PIA3761C is a seriously well-built instrument, clearly designed for players wanting that modern, high-flying shred vibe. The neck profile is comfortable and fast, and those UtoPIA pickups really nail Steve Vai’s sonic signature. It's a premium-priced guitar, but if you’re chasing that specific sound and feel, it’s a worthwhile investment.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Edge is a more refined, locking tremolo offering better tuning stability and a smoother feel compared to many Floyd Rose designs, especially when diving.
The PIA neck profile is surprisingly accommodating; the 43mm nut width and gradual taper make it playable for a wide range of hand sizes, though it’s not as thin as some Ibanez models.
The powder coating is quite durable, offering good protection against scratches and chips compared to gloss finishes, but it’s still advisable to protect it with polish and care.
