1991 Ibanez Universe UV77-MC Steve Vai Signature Passion & Warfare Multi-Color Swirl Guitar W/Signed Case!

If you are reading this, you know what it is and how rare it is to find one, let alone at this price.

All original and in excellent condition, this is THE guitar for Vai collectors.

One of the better color swirls I have seen, as you know, each one was unique.

There are a couple of small marks here and there (tiny one on the headstock logo-see pic) and the obligatory tarnish on the neck plate, but take a look at the pics, they don’t lie.

This guitar is exceptional. It is very clean, plays great, AND comes with what I think is the original case, (at least period correct) hand signed by Steve Vai.

Overall, this is a great package and a very rare guitar and quite honestly the best price you are likely to find on one of these. Take advantage and buy it before I come to my senses and keep it:)

Specs/info:

The UV77 is a seven-string solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in 1990. It is a signature model of American guitarist Steve Vai, and part of Vai’s Universe series. The UV77 was available only in a swirled Multi Color finish.

A prototype of the UV77 MC appeared on the cover of Vai’s 1990 masterpiece album, Passion and Warfare. This prototype actually featured a monkey grip like Steve’s JEM guitars, but the grip was edited out of the picture and all regular production UV’s were ‘gripless’.
