Description
Designed in collaboration with jazz legend John Scofield, the Ibanez JSM10EM delivers the expressive tone and fluid playability that define his signature sound. This meticulously crafted semi-hollow body guitar captures the essence of Scofield’s original AS200 while incorporating modern enhancements for superior performance and versatility.
A Refined Jazz Instrument
Built for warm, articulate tone and effortless playability, the JSM10EM features a Flamed Maple top with Linden back and sides, offering a balanced, natural resonance with clarity across the tonal spectrum. The Nyatoh neck provides a rich mid-low end, perfectly complementing the bound Rosewood fretboard, which enhances note articulation and sustain.
Super 58 Pickups & Tri-Sound Switch
Equipped with a pair of Super 58 humbuckers, the JSM10EM delivers a smooth, vintage-inspired tone with moderate output—ideal for jazz, blues, and beyond. The Tri-Sound switch expands the tonal palette, offering three distinct pickup voicings for added versatility.
Exceptional Hardware for Precision & Stability
The Gibraltar Performer bridge ensures long-lasting sustain and precise intonation, while the Quik Change III tailpiece allows for fast, hassle-free string changes. Medium frets enhance note accuracy, making intricate passages feel effortless.
A Guitar Designed for a Master
As Scofield himself states:
"I loved the way the neck felt on my 1981 AS200, and that was the guitar I always returned to. You find what you're comfortable with and you stay with it. This became the basis for the JSM John Scofield Model introduced in 2001, which reproduced the original AS200 guitar, with added improvements."
