Player's Perspective

Here's another awesome mid-priced Ibanez artist signature axe - Nita Strauss' JIVA10! This beautiful guitar in a custom Deep Space Blonde "burst" finish with super-rad custom fretboard inlays is a hard-edged machine tuned to the rock vixen's exacting specifications. 

Based on the classic Ibanez "S" body shape, this guitar is extremely comfortable to play and hold on your lap. Due to the thin body, it's extremely lightweight: sub-8 lbs is extremely light for a mahogany-bodied instrument with a double-locking tremolo and a fully-loaded HSH pickup configuration. The Wizard III neck is another class choice for this axe, as it's thin and ridiculously fast like all Ibanez Wizard necks, but not as thin as the Super Wizard HP found on the Prestige guitars, making the JIVA10 a more comfortable guitar to transition to for players used to a thicker neck profile whilst still being super slim and speedy.

The DiMarzio Pandemonium pickups are Nita's signature pickups and man do they kick ass! Equipped with ceramic magnets and wound to medium output, they're Nita's ideal take on a harder-edged classic rock sound that can handle higher levels of gain extremely well. They also have uniquely-designed pickup covers that look seriously awesome. Pair them with the True Velvet in the middle position, and you have a very versatile tonal palette.
