Ibanez JS1BKP Joe Satriani Signature – Black Paisley

Limited Edition · Made in Japan · FujiGen

Product Overview

The Ibanez JS1BKP is a limited-edition JS Series solid-body electric guitar introduced in 2023 to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the Joe Satriani signature series. Crafted in Japan at the renowned FujiGen factory, this model represents a rare and artistic milestone in Ibanez history.

Debuted at the NAMM Show on April 13, 2023, the JS1BKP features stunning, hand-drawn paisley artwork created by Rubina Satriani. The intricate designs are inspired by ancient Boteh Jegheh motifs, resulting in a guitar that blends expressive visual art with elite performance.

Though officially discontinued after 2023, the JS1BKP briefly resurfaced on Ibanez Japan’s website in early 2025 before disappearing again, making it a highly sought-after collector’s instrument.
