Tony from up the road asked if I wanted to check out this Ibanez JS1200 from about 2004....And since I'd never tried one, I said...Yes please!

If I had Cordy’s tone, I would never leave the house 👍
What, you’d wash the dishes and change the napkins?
He can send you the helix presets if you look in the video info
If you never leave the house you will develop an enviable tone…
Flying in a blue dream inspired intro was awesome! Great work John!
I have a JS1200 and I love it, recommend everyone tries one, really versatile and you can pick these up at a really good price
Over $2000? Ouch!
It's interesting thinking back over the years and realizing that I can not remember a single person ever playing the Satch signature except for Joe
I finally brought the one I’ve always wanted- muscle car- it’s just fun to play every day!
It was formerly a production model called the Radius. Sadly it only exists as the JS series now. Sad because you have to pay a huge premium to get this design since it has Satriani’s name on it. At least you can get a Prestige RG for less than half of the cost of a Jem.
When I managed to save some money from my first job, I bought a black JS 100.
That guitar stayed my main guitar for years.
Later on I got an S Series and stayed with those, but I think the JS still is a very cool guitar and has a lot of character.
@@sigiligus I had the Radius in 88, it was in Jewel Blue and an HSS setup. Satch initially was plugging the Ibanez Power. Never really saw those in the shops. My brother had the Sabre HSH that Frank Gambale had. Ibanez have always been quality and how times change, I just love LP's these days.
@@sigiligus js 1200 is the same price as rg652
This is a perfect example of how a melody is better than wailing a million notes per second. You can teach students scales and even theory, but melody is something hard to teach.
What you said is true, but scales and theory are exactly why the melody you are hearing exists.
I can’t unsee the controls making a little smiley face with the bottom of the body
Beautiful. Inspiring. Thunderously righteous raw audio goodness. Rock on!
Loved your playing with that JS!! Glad you liked it....kinda figured you would it feels very similar to a custom strat neck wise....and those necks sooo buttery feeling. Thank you for the demo. Gorgeous tones you got out of it too some of best I've heard on your channel 💯👍
Its been awhile since an intro has left me breathless; well played Sir, well played!!!!
Oh yeah, the review was spot-on as well. Subscribing, along with my sincere thanks!
This guitar seems to work really well with your style, John. I sometimes zone out and do other things while listening to the intro music, but this one really pulled my attention back!
Wonderful playing and awesome backing track!
Always loved these guitars - Great playing John!
Back in '01 I bought a JS1000. Still have it and still love it. Coil tap and high pass filter pots are sweet. You can get some nice, glassy tones from the hot Dimarzio pickup set. It does many things well. The neck is comfortable and has the nice scallop at the heel. Also, it's required very little maintenance over the past 20+ years.
JNC, you’re such an articulate player that you sound amazing just through my phone! I listened to that entire intro and didn’t even realize that I’d forgotten to connect into my desktop speakers until you began to speak.😮
Been following your channel a long time and heard a bunch of unbelievably great playing and tones. I know you’re a strat guy through and through but this guitar *really* seems to suit you!
3:23 - I love that you’re your own editor. It’s easy to spot when something new really boils your eggs. Sounds magic dude.
I've been a fan of Joe's playing, tone, techniques, and melodic style since the very first moment I heard him. He made me interested in Ibanez guitars and their designs. My modded Strat reflects many of those influences.
That’s the most gorgeous playing I’ve heard for a while.
Super cool vibe. Tipped your hat to the tones of my youth. Thank you
OH LAWRD! John you sound SO good on that thing!
Thats a big thing coming from you as a monster player yourself
Joe is my favorite guitarist of all time. His music rode with me through many chapters of life, the good and the bad over the past 30 years. He gets credit for his amazing abilities on the instrument, but I think he is a fantastic composer as well. His instrumental songs can make you smile or cry without a single word. Always wanted to try one of his signature models.
Love your channel. Btw I noticed on your thumbnail, Satriani is spelled Satriana. Thanks for the great review of this lovely axe.
You’re such a lovely player John and your reviews to the beginner or pros are just excellent and very unbiased. Unlike some here on you tube ..especially the few self professed expert’s I’ve seen .
I’m a pro player owned the He,it since released also the Kemper floor.
Just purchased the Fender pro so found your videos really interested and fair
I’ll be following you with interest keep it up bud

Sitting here practicing on my JS100 I bought the week they originally released back in 1994 as this post hit my feed. As us well-aged gents often say, they don't make 'em like they used to. I've never played any other guitar at any price that plays as well as this instrument. Great stuff as always, John. Thanks for all the amazing content.
Oh look, another guitar John makes sounds so, so good ! 🤪 A great review with samples of the pick-up/split selections, quite a versatile guitar. I look so foreword to your new videos just to hear what you're going to play next. Makes me want to quit work and just play. 🙌🙌
I never would have guessed you playing this guitar for some reason. I bought the JS with the sustainiac and it is my go to now. It is so comfortable to play and sounds fantastic. I hope to see you play this one more. :-)
Beautiful chromatic scales and progressions JNC
I picked up a 2002 JS1000 this week for a song!!!!... I had a JS100 for years that I loved...
Its UNBELIEVABLE!!!!... Pleased that youre on the satch train too!...
Had it in my shop for a refret. Love it! Fender-ish neck. Excellent building quality
Oh, that guitar sounds just right in any way! Love JS. (and 22 frets especially)
The Ibanez guitars of the 90s made by FujiGen are awesome, I still have an Ibanez 540SFM made in 1990 that is absolutely the most confortable guitar I've ever had!
I regret selling the 540S LTD that I bought in 1990. It was my first guitar.
The 540 s was not an inexpensive guitar. I still have my 87 540s. It’s so pure sounding.
The satori’s I was essentially a 540r or radius model with rounded edges but instead of being mahogany body it was made of poplar.
My 540 came with amazing factory dimarzios with stacked single coils and I love them
@@pierre5227 Yes, they were not cheap guitars, I bought my 540SFM in 1991 for 850 US Dollars (with Ibanez hard-shell case) which inflation adjusted according to the official US inflation calculator page will make it now a 1,920 US dollars guitar!, an inflation of 126% since 1991
Awesome playing and sound. Especially from around 09:00 minutes with the clean breakup sound❤❤❤
I bought his entry level Ibanez model in the mid 90's. To this day one of my favorite guitars. I had to sell it to pay bills once my first child came, I still miss that guitar. There is one lucky player in Chico, CA. Hope you treated her well, she sang!
Great playing !
He is so good at doing these Backing tracks, just stunning playing and Tone.
Where could I get the backing track?
the pickups sound magical
If I had to pick one mode to play for the rest of time, it would have to lydian. I felt my brain change the first time I heard Flying in a Blue Dream. Fantastic playing, mr. Cordy!
HOLY WOW - you totally owned this guitar!
Those guitars are spectacular. I had a JS1000 for a while and have missed it since the day I sold it for space/cash.
The playing, feel and tone here are great. Well done, John.
I miss my JS900 (witch I add the split after) and my JS700
Same here! Had a JS1000 and wish I still had it.
Is it possible to secure the Floyd Rose in order to suit non-trem players ?
I feel that way about my JP6 from back then, red pearlburst😢.... got married... needed money. Had I only realized it would only appreciate in value! I loved that guitar!
After 20 years owning a JS100, my first serious guitar, I got a 1200. And is a powerful, versatile masterpiece of a guitar indeed!
Lovely playing
My first serious guitar was the js1000. I still love it. The bridge pickup and feel of the neck are the best parts
Got a JS100 as my second guitar 10+ years ago because I am a massive Satch fan. Was my main guitar for all that time and it ran rings around everything else at that price point. A pickup swap to seymour duncans made it a pro instrument and the only guitar I could never consider replacing. Fantastic guitars
Brought one of these this weekend for £200 plus a hard case and its immaculate.... such a cool guitar
Jesus. Incredible playing, man.
This was the first professional guitar I got. My dad bought it for me when I was 14, back in 2009.
I played every single school gig on it, back when I did not know anything about guitar and gear, and was probably playing distorted power chords on the neck pickup.
The simpler days when music was more important than everything else.
I have since then acquired guitars I like way more and the JS1200 has been living in the closet for the past 5 years (rent free!)
think this is my sign to get a fresh set of strings on it and make some noise.
Thanks for the video, as always, John!
I'll buy it and pay for shipping
I've got a JS2000, which is the hard-tail version (while I do like a trem, I've found gigging with a floyd-style trem to be more hassle than it's worth). It's a much more versatile guitar than you might think. I've used it for rock, blues and even country (the middle position with both pickups split is suprisingly tele-like). Having an on-off switch for the treble-bleed didn't serve any purpose for me as I would always leave it on. So I had the guitar rewired so that the push-pull on the tone control splits the bridge pickup, and the push-pull on the volume control splits the neck pickup. That allows me to switch straight from single coil in the neck to humbucker in the bridge with just the pickup selector switch. It also gives me a wider variety of tones that I will use. The guitar is always a joy to play.
Ibanez make amazing guitars, whatever you think of the brand or your personal prefrence there is no doubt about their quality. I don't particularly like double-locking guitars so this one wouldn't be on my radar but I can see why you liked it so much!
I have an Ibanez AZ and I get your point about it being "bassier" (at least on an basswood body, maybe), but in general the AZ's tend to be quite bright so that has never been a big problem for me.
Definitely has a PRS thing going on. Style and sound
That’s absolutely class playing
I bought a JS1000 recently and I completely agree, its one of the best guitars I own now. The JS feels like a Stratocaster from outer space.
I once considered buying one of those. I bought a Yamaha Revstar 420 instead. It would have been nice to have both...dream on :)
Loving your instrumentals. fab stuff Nathan.
I had a JS100 years ago and it's the most beautiful solid body guitar design there is, I regret I sold it
you should have far more followers than you do, but you’re headed that way. such articulation in your playing, amazing stuff. what are you playing through on this intro?
I have a JS1000 and a 2410 and both of them are phenomenal guitars.
Good review, tasteful playing and fabulous tones! I own a couple of the pre-sustainaic 24 fret JS models. A Premium JS24P and the JS2410 (in 'none more' Orange). Both phenomenal guitars. The Hot Rail pup in the neck produces some beautiful split tones. The JS24P has a very slightly chunkier neck and a warmer tone. You should try one. You might just love it! 👍
I remember going to the guitar store to play this guitar. It felt like like no matter how badly you played every note was buttery smooth
Great tribute to the Satch's axe.
I own several JS and I've the chance to get this beauty.
You talck honnestly about this guitar including what you don't like on this model.
Satch can make everything with this guitar.
And on your onw way you show that this JS can be really close from a Strat sound.. warm...deep...bright.
Sometime you sound like Eric Johnson...
I thinck you're an Eric Johnson's fan, your way of playing sounds really like him sometimes...chord voicing, arpeggios, with strings skipping...and when you're using the JS like that she really sound like a good warm Strat.
Your playing is great too of course.
Anyway it's a great way to show how much this guitar is fantastic in differents styles and differents way of playing...
Just taking the time to use split pick-ups and volume knob to discover all the faces of this beauty.
Ibanez is really a great brand who created so many inventions till so many years now...and they're still looking foward...without to forget past creations from all brands, just like Fender.
I've always thought Joe has one of the best neck humbucker sounds. That coil split sounds great too. And having a high-pass filter would help control the muddiness. Never bought one of these guitars but they are super sweet.
Sounding great on humbuckers John
I played one years ago when they first did the Satch signature, it had the emblem on the 12th fret best guitar I ever played !
Picked up a used JS900 locally shortly after this video. Doesn't have the coil split, but that can be modded in case I want it. A modest 3.2 kg weight, beautiful black pearl finish. Really nice rosewood fingerboard and neck feels so stratty :)
a small and lightweight guitar, with an amazing look and superb sound, I really love mine :)
Rich beautiful tone. Really suits you
You play beautifully brother!
Amazing Sound ! What Amplifier do you use ? Thanks
Absolutely love my 1200… pretty cool to see you playing one.
Can you re-create this post using the Boss GX 100?? 😂 That would be my exact setup and I would love to get ur tone settings on my GX.
I saw joe play a 1200 live in sydney in 2005. At 18 years old i had to have one. I bought one the same year i think it was. Still got it, and had the back plate signed by joe in 06 during his g3 tour. In my opinion its the 2nd most beautiful guitar ever made after the chrome boy.
Guess what i ordered this week...
Fantastic playing my friend! Could you do a lesson on your soloing over the changes. I would pay!
Nice video. I've wanted one of these for years but never went for it (partly due to funds etc)- I would much prefer this to the 24 fret model as I just think it all looks iconic with 2 humbuckers.
I had a 2014 JS2410 in muscle car orange. It was lovely, but not really my thing. It had a Satch Track humbucker at the neck and a Mo' Joe humbucker at the bridge. A thing of beauty.
I love seeing that instrument in your hands.. Same body and bridge as my 1989 Ibanez 540 Radius. I was wondering what you might have thought of the pickups in the JS too.
If you haven't tried an EBMM Majesty or Kaizen, you may want to consider doing so.
The Majesty sounds amazing, is very versatile and the easiest playing guitar I've ever owned.
The Kaizen 6 is my new favorite guitar, just received my fourth one earlier this week in the new Kryptonite finish. Sound, playability, comfort, etc., amazing guitar IMO.
Sold/selling several guitars so I can get more!
I picked up a guitar because Joe Satriani. I still think he’s one of the coolest and most original players out there. I’d love to have one of these for sentimentality, besides being a sick axe.
If you ever get a chance to play a "well set up" Ibanez Radius with the "Ultra Neck", you'll get the bit bigger feel you're asking for while keeping everything else that you already love. They aren't very common, but they can be found. The Ibanez Radius is the model from which the JS body style originated. Once Satriani got his endorsement going with Ibanez, they discontinued the Radius series to prevent confusion about which guitar customers were purchasing. Personally, I like the original Radius guitars slightly better. Although, I do own several JS guitars and they are all great guitars.
I’d love to see you check out the Marco Sfogli Charvel. Or even Marco Sfogli related lessons would be incredible
Such good tone!
I have one ted in colour too! It’s a great guitar!
I used to have one John and the one change I made and highly recommend to you. Buy an original Floyd socket and arm and put into the Edge Pro trem for a more stable trem arm that stays where it should . Ibanez nylons are flawed
Owned nothing but JS MODELS👍🏼
best necks I've ever felt.
Feels like home
I owned a JS-1000 around 12 or so years ago. I think still to this day I have yet to play a guitar as light as it or any guitar that played as effortless. Attention to detail, fit and finish was impeccable.
You don't have it anymore?
@@albertplaysguitar sadly not
@@therangersinger I feel your pain... I used to have a mm jp6, bass wood body... same frets I think as the Satch ibanez...
Yep - I’ve had My JS1000 since 2001 - very hard to beat the weight and feel of that neck and fretboard
The song in the intro is blowing my mind every time I hear it! Is there a Spotify link to it? I'd like to add it to my daily playlist...
Flutter away mr John!!! 😎
0:12 What a playing! I can't stop listening to this!
he really is a seriously talented player
good playing
I love his model. It's the last remnants of the Roadstar line... which I wished they'd kept. Even down to the 42mm/1.65" nut with.
Fantastic!
I still dream about ibanez guitars love them
I had one of these, totally mint. Sold it during one of my "I hate locking tremolos" phases. I'm an idiot....
I think Joe first played the 540 sabre. I have 2 of the 540’s and also had a j1000. The 540’s are far away my favourites. The 540 had an Ibanez range of pickups in humbucker single coil, single coil configuration and can sound like a jazz stylie to rock. The 540 also had a wizard neck which is very flat and I was surprised that the j1000 was more contoured.
I played the Andy Timmons US and really really liked it but couldn’t justify the price…..to my wife.
The Jeff Beck strat I had +20 yrs ago had the thickness neck in mankind guitar history...even bigger than for example the Joe Perry Black Les Paul. It was huge, but still quite comfortable.
I think the Ibanez signature guitars are excellent. I have the Premium Andy Timmons and it’s outrageously good.
I had a JS-1, the original. Fantastic guitar
I need a Tony in my life
So interesting. I had the exact opposite reaction hearing the side the by side with the AZ. I thought the AZ had more of that "sweet" strat sound at least on the neck pickup. The bridge tone on the satch model was phenomenal though... All in the ears of the beholder I guess
The JS1200 came with 2 excellent, classic pickups: the FRED and the PAF Joe. Try with a no load tone pot. (or just disconnect it)
Tearing it up!
Nice playing! Just wondering do you have any plans to try out Ibanez AZ or quest series since they seem to suit you more as general S-style guitars.
John's done a few AZs over the last couple of years
I’ve always thought your soloing was very Satch-like, so this video is appropriate!
I had a JS1000WH back in the day and wish I had kept it as they are the rarest of the two color options by a large margin.
I would have kept it but i was a full time gigging musician and the edge pro trem system was a no go for me at the time since breaking a string was something i couldnt recover from at a live show without a tech on standby.
But the Fred and Paf Pro pickups were awesome and it had miles of sustain, loved that guitar for everything except the trem system.
