Nita’s Signature Axe - The JIVA10
Ibanez
Ibanez Nita Strauss Jiva10 - Built for Power & Precision
The Ibanez Nita Strauss Jiva10 is more than just an artist signature model—it’s a weapon designed for players who demand both speed and versatility. From the moment you pick it up, the Jiva10 feels fast and responsive.
Its sleek S-style body is perfectly contoured for comfort during long sessions, while the quilted maple top and “Beaten Path” fingerboard inlay give it a striking visual identity. Under the hood, the combination of DiMarzio Pandemonium humbuckers and True Velvet single-coil delivers a tonal range that can go from articulate cleans to face-melting high gain without breaking a sweat.
The Edge Zero II tremolo system holds tuning rock-solid even under aggressive whammy use, and the slim Wizard neck profile makes shredding feel effortless. This isn’t just a signature guitar—it’s a professional-level tool that bridges the gap between beauty and brutality.
If your playing demands speed, precision, and tone that cuts through the mix, the Jiva10 is a serious contender. Nita Strauss’ name is on it for a reason—this guitar is built to perform.
