Nita Strauss and the JIVA10 Signature from Ibanez

Get the Ibanez JIVA10 Nita Strauss Signature guitar here: www.sweetwater.com/store/deta...
The signature model of high-profile metal guitarist Nita Strauss, the Ibanez JIVA10 is sleek, aggressive, and built for speed. At the JIVA10's core is the tried-and-true combination of mahogany topped with quilted maple. A maple/purpleheart neck and smooth ebony fingerboard complete this axe's flawless tonewood recipe. You can expect effortless playability, thanks to a 3-piece Nitro Wizard neck and Prestige fret-edge treatment. And you'll pummel your amp into submission with a multitude of aggressive tones, by way of a versatile HSH configuration of DiMarzio pickups.

Signature guitar aside, what's truly important here is the future she has helped to create for countless young girls taking up guitar. She can melt fretboards even as she melts everyone with her dazzling smile. Go Nita. Don't stop.

[@dexxfilm]

Not just young girls. She inspires young people in general. Boys and girls. Also girls don't need a female player to look up to. Nita's guitar heroes were mostly Male.

[@sickasshandy3543]

@@dexxfilm Not just young people, I'm 35 and she's an inspiration to me 😂

[@supergwizzo]

Agree and the jiva is a sweet playing guitar..

[@billyhughes9776]

What a combo. Talented player, attractive and she seems legitimately nice and well spoken.

[@Claimjumper55]

This is the coolest signature guitar I’ve seen in quite awhile. Great job!!

[@travr1131]

Yeah Nita and Ibanez killed the design on this one! Stunning!

[@SaintHochiminhAkioMingShanXiao]

Great job!!! This guitar is sooo awesome! Without guitar life is nothing, with guitar life is everything. Thank you Nita.

[@Cooker98]

I'm not really into artist guitars but this one is really well designed.

[@obscuresavior2802]

Just purchased mine ! Will be here in two days :) cant wait !

[@rickeybolen1978]

I've had mine for 2 days and I am already in love with it! Absolutely amazing guitar. I waited just over 6 months from time I preordered it. Loooong wait but completely worth it. If anyone should feel so inclined to check it out I have put 2 little quick videos with it up on my channel. I hope to do a better one with my full rig in the coming weeks. Nita I'm not sure if you will ever see this comment but not only can play the hell out of a guitar but you have designed one of the best I've ever played as well!

[@raymonddefouw4813]

Hey Nita, you new guitar is the next one i will add to my collection, I love the sound!

[@kanesword9528]

I got mine about a month ago and really love it. I was #2 in line at Sweetwater and had to wait since February 2nd. Nita, you're the best, love your passion, humility, goofy sense of humor and your music. If you ever come to MN, would love to have you sign your guitar.

[@whiskeymike7364]

Goofy is spot on. And I bought this guitar for the features!

[@andrewtate8303]

Awsome guitar playing!

seriously thinking to get this one. Beautiful

[@craigcampbell6690]

Have had one for 3yrs. LUV IT💚😎

Congrats Nita. Patiently waiting, well trying anyway, on my Jiva to arrive and to see Nita in concert in a couple months.

[@mrlozano]

Beautiful guitar!

Great looking guitar I'm thinking of getting one and then getting nita to sign it fingers crossed

[@charlespatrick1572]

I saw the beautiful you and the beautiful guitar at Sweetwater Fest. I wish I could have played it but there was quite a line to get hands on the guitar. I hope it sells well. It looks and sounds great.

[@akshaychandra84]

This guitar is amazing 😍😍😍

[@marike1100]

Great player, she's an excellent choice for a signature model, and what an awesome guitar it seems to be. Perfect specs, great tones, cool looking, and not ridiculously expensive. Congrats.

[@shredder166]

that guitar is really cool.i am getting one.

[@rickeybolen1978]

Hopefully this means it is coming soon, I pre ordered mine 6 months ago. Can't wait!

You have the most beautiful eyes! Great guitar. my personal fave axe is an RG. I will try your Signature.

[@whiskeymike7364]

Bought one. TY Nita.

[@davidbloom2079]

this guitar plays Incredible

[@davidstock2713]

Nita has such a pretty voice, which when she does back up vocals its very noticible. Kristen, nita/courtney were phenomenal with there voice range.

[@rockycalcodies7066]

Amazing !!!

[@Supernautiloid]

I like the part where all the mids were scooped out of the entire universe.

[@chrisking6695]

I hate that sound. It makes no sense. You people have damaged ears. The guitar lives in the mid range.

[@lucaszheng4362]

Has all the best Marshall amps behind her... plugs into a Marshall Code

[@669rd]

Lucas Zheng that’s what they’re trying to sell!

[@mikeforbes8088]

That Code is a Beast!!

[@cjykqn]

I like how the burst goes with the Marshall's color

[@sinnertrain7405]

She is mega cool and a great player. I'd definitely buy her signature modern Ibanez, even though shred is just one aspect of my guitar playing and interest in the instrument.

[@dry509]

Awesome playing.

[@rickshadowbanetheonehorned2388]

After looking at several videos, it looks to be one of the coolest and most versatile guitars I've seen in quite awhile. I really think I want one. I play a lot of classic sounding stuff but apparently I just really dig hot, aggressive pickups. I've now seen this guitar go from metal to smooth jazz and about everything between and sound great through all of it. I just need to find somewhere I can go and actually put my hands on one and see if I like the feel. Never played an Ibanez electric. I'd like to hold it once to make sure it's a good fit. So scared to spend that much online without even knowing if I like the neck. Pandemic shopping.

[@tharsgaard663]

If this had been a 7 string I definitely would have bought it such a nice guitar and sounds great !

[@327DeAd]

Love the look of this guitar. i wonder how those pickups sound playing something more on the jazz side of the tracks

[@rickshadowbanetheonehorned2388]

Actually, really good! I forget which video it was I saw a bit ago but yeah. They sound great all around.

[@benjamingring621]

EKG pattern? That guitar is for nodal rythms or Gerry and the pacemakers songs only

[@billylomelino]

Hi there nice sounds love it looks good Awesome

[@simonsvedberg1432]

Nita is such a great guitar player, perfect fit for Alice Cooper!

[@DANTHETUBEMAN]

ooohhh i want that guitar :)

[@rocafella142]

I'm typically against signature guitars, but I ordered one of these on sweetwater. It's left handed and have to wait like a year, but I'm excited for it

[@tritontransport]

It’s been almost a year. Did you get it yet? 🤔 waiting isn’t necessarily a bad thing. It means they build them properly and good quality instead of spitting them out mass producing them like a lot of other so called “signature” guitars are made

[@aidencantrell8534]

i got to see nita strauss play when she was at Gear fest At sweetwater in fort wayne indiana.

[@lisfelipe2348]

I LOVE YOU💔 Nita

how do you re-string this ?

Awesome Guitar !! But the Best thing is that Nita Did Not Want to Lie about the Pickups and Just put Her Name on Them.. You Absolutely Rock Nita 🎸🎶!

[@finishin.my.coffee8780]

I wish there was a version of this guitar with a hardtail.

[@flawlessfail1642]

This guitar looks amazing and is on my wishlist! I'll never own it though because I'm poor.

[@D.Guitar]

I Love the Guitar.... love everything about it... Especially the ebony fretboard with the E.K.G. inlay... I wish it would come in more options of Color....I adore Quilt Maple. But Cobalt Blue over quilt is Awesome....green.. no burst... Ok...I actually hate Bursts....and would possibly sand off the finish on this Guitar and stain it blue ...but that's just me.. I also read where the balance was a big reason You didn't go with neck through ...I wish it were neck through five piece.. . But.. aside from these points. I still am trying to see how I can come up with $1500.00 to get one of these... Seriously.. sweet Guitar

[@wh1telightning]

Mine is on its way. Wasn't sure where to leave this but I want to say I am NOT happy it comes with a soft gig bag instead of the original hardshell they came with.

[@bkul44]

this looks like a cool guitar ! hmmmmm !!

I would play this guitar

What's a good guitar to start playing electric guitar,The Fender Telecaster or Stratocaster or the jazz master or another electric guitar.Also I'm left handed.Thankyou for any answers or input!!!!

[@sweetwater]

Hi, Johnny. Any guitar can potentially be a good starter. It really depends on the style of music you want to play, the tones you like, and budget. I would suggest giving us a call over here and one of us will be glad to help figure out the best guitar for you. Thanks for your interest!

[@Chrsdxn]

Damn that thing is gorgeous!!!! Guitar is pretty cool too. 😉. But seriously, that thing looks awesome, binding, finish etc. I love the S series and that inlay is so cool and original. The only thing I’d change is the middle pickup.... I always liked the two humbuckers only better.

[@richardcler369]

No repercussions. You have a glossy brochure on your new guitar package? It is a well designed outfit at a cliff bottom price.

She says that was her inspiration for the color. Shes blonde and always wearing black.

[@musicmatti]

maybe the reason why it is named deep space blonde

[@MTRX2011]

i want that in purple. and adjusted for massive strings of course. ;)

[@csilt]

I like the part where people didn't hate in the comments just because she can out play them.

[@allenfrench2424]

There always has to somebody that says something negative and pick something about her playing,I think she is a great guitar player and she is paving the way for women,she is in the lane as Joan Jett they make history and will be talked about long after and for the next Gen,passion is love,love is passion her heart is in the right place 👍

[@joes5150]

I like the back of the neck

[@bluwng]

I love that guitar but at this price point would be nice if it had Stainless Steel frets

[@The_Nightslayer]

I was going to get a schecter signature with the exact inlay but not as exactly at hers My story behind the inlay is different from what she's coming from The heartbeat inlay in my story Is about my actual heartbeat before going away from this world Something like this 24th fret 12th 1st fret -'\~~~~~~~~~~✓\✓\~~~~~~~✓\~\~~~~\~~~~~ I have planned this signature from schecter for several years Barley knew who she was But I guess I have to come up with something So that schecter won't get sued But I wish I could be more detailed with the inlay But that's my story from the heartbeat inlay Any thoughts ? I have planned this guitar for years already

I checked that guitar in #guitarcenter nyc and it was amazing 😉

Amazing guitar from and amazing woman!!! Sooooooo sexy! Very crisp sound with passive pickups. Very light as well. What are the pick up combinations though?

"I'm not what you'd call a pink guitar person." Haha! She's the best? I wish her and Ibanez continued success.

She could sell sand to the arabs. Great video, great guitar, beautiful person, AND, she wears Adidas! What a dreamboat.

Needs more gain

I’ll take the Marshall plexi head

[@jayz6008]

Why does her tone sound terrible on all her videos ? Over saturated , fizzy , thin ...

[@jayden4244]

Cause the amp ist set to all the gain !!,no mids

[@thomasprice1760]

Yeah and nita is very hot...

[@namename3139]

playing t the start sounds mix of 80s bad as , glam, and the last 20 years of metal that is usualy deprsive or end of world stuff, also the chord and chuggs sound abit heavy, I gues I would like to see how it sounds , I want to play a chord and it sounds amazing, I dont want to ahve to do crazy solos, I like solos tho

[@goodboyringo9716]

[@brooksonly7337]

Yet none of the bass players who endorse ibanez will bring back the SB 900 or 1200.

[@669rd]

I missed the 80’s when rockstars were RockstÄrs and not salesman/women disguised as RockstÄrs to sell guitars.

[@carnivalminds]

You missed a malaise of horrible songwriting that only served as a vehicle for an inevitable, predictable, and more often than not unnecessary guitar solo by a guy with flammable hair, a nut cup, and a fake Italiano last name who is currently playing county fairs. ;)

[@Chrsdxn]

I’ve heard that since the internet made everything so easy to steal it’s a lot harder to actually make money as a musician. I think it was Misha Monsoor who said that if it wasn’t for his and his bands endorsements he wouldn’t make any money. Concert tickets are also super high these days. You can’t just go see a bigger band on a whim now unless you have a bunch of loot. My whole life, I figured if someone was in a decent sized band, they must be rich. When Randy from LOG got arrested in Prague, the band didn’t just have $200 gs sitting around to bail him out. They had to have fundraisers. Maybe I’m wrong, I don’t know.

[@RoeShamBoe]

lol. i guess you weren't paying attention in the 80s.

[@jjrusy7438]

boy George. ya he was thee Rockstar, oh-boy. Nita is a hard working musician. She was also saying somewhere along the way that she needed to catch up in the online media/youtube world. hey vanessa, catty beotch much?

[@cbk75]

Yep, I agree with Chrsdxn, it's bloody hard to make a buck in the music business. I'm sure the artists could do without the extra sales pitches they have to make, but if you wanna stay in the game you've got to take the money when you can get it. Besides, she gets a stonking great guitar out of the deal as well.

[@hhhaitchhh]

That's a guitar

[@444Inlakesh]

the fam is old

[@AceMcshred]

That tone in the intro sounds horrible to me. I know she's a great player and I'm sure it's a nice guitar, but jesus christ they should of toned down the gain a bit.
