Ibanez JSM20-BKL John Scofield Signature - 2022

Here is an Ibanez JSM20-BKL John Scofield Signature, a refined and highly expressive semi-hollow designed in collaboration with jazz-fusion legend John Scofield. Built to capture his distinctive voice, this model blends warmth, clarity, and dynamic response, making it equally suited to jazz, blues, and modern fusion playing.

This 2022 example features a fully laminated maple top, back, and sides, delivering a lively acoustic resonance with excellent note separation and controlled feedback. The result is a semi-hollow that feels open and responsive while maintaining focus and definition across the frequency range.

It is fitted with a three-piece nyatoh/maple neck and bound ebony fingerboard, offering a smooth, stable playing feel with excellent comfort across the entire neck. The Gibraltar Artist bridge and Ibanez tuning machines provide solid tuning stability, while the Ibanez speed knobs allow precise and immediate control over volume and tone adjustments.

Electronics consist of a pair of Ibanez Super 58 humbuckers, delivering warm, vintage-voiced tones with smooth highs, rich midrange, and excellent articulation. The pickups respond beautifully to touch dynamics, offering clean, glassy tones at lower volumes and a more expressive, slightly driven character when pushed.

Condition is excellent overall with only light pick wear on the pickguard. It has been carefully inspected and set up by Premier Guitars to ensure optimal playability. A versatile, professional-grade semi-hollow that excels across jazz, blues, and fusion styles. Comes complete with its hard case.
