From his beginnings as a first-call jazz sideman through his solo work and more recent funk-oriented output, guitarist John Scofield has blazed a fearless trail, moving effortlessly in and out of bop, fusion, rock, funk, blues, and soul. From its gold tuning pegs down to the Quik Change III tailpiece, the Ibanez John Scofield Signature JSM20 is a powerful reflection of this musical luminary. Super 58 humbuckers with flexible switching deliver characteristic PAF tone with massive sonic options. Beyond that, an Artstar treated bound ebony fretboard on a super-comfortable nyatoh and maple neck ensures that the JSM20 is one solid jazz box. Configured for precision, speed, and incredible stability One of the things that had us dragging each other to showroom to marvel over the original Ibanez John Scofield model was its phenomenal stability, and we're absolutely delighted that the JSM20 follows suit perfectly. Between its set 3-piece nyatoh and maple neck and reliable Quik Change III tailpiece, the JSM20 provides you with absolutely rock-solid performance. What's more, the smooth Artstar fret-edge treatment and bound ebony fretboard make this one of the most comfortable guitars you're likely to get your hands on. Classic humbuckers meet sophisticated tone options The Super 58 humbuckers in the John Scofield Signature JSM20 are the same type of pickups found in John Scofield's own guitar, wired up the same way to give you a ton of tonal options. With just the 3-position toggle alone, these classic PAF-style humbuckers provide you with a beautiful range of warmth and clear projection. But there's a second 3-way toggle onboard the JSM20, which lets you switch the neck pickup from series to parallel, with a stop in the middle for single-coil tone. The tonal possibilities are absolutely astonishing! Jaw-dropping appointments make this jazz box a real looker Some guitars are just born classy, and the semi-hollowbody JSM20 is among this class of instruments. The JSM20's beauty extends down to the smallest details, like the gold tuning pegs and other hardware, or the binding on the top, back, and fretboard, which extends to the headstock and the F-holes. And you can't help but admire the mother-of-pearl and abalone block inlays, which seem to leap off the fretboard and capture every stray beam of light.
