Ibanez have updated their Jet King series with new finishes, a new trem system and even some new pickups. The JTK4 RD has a completely new vintage tremelo system called the ‘VBX60 vibrato’ and a ‘Full Tune III bridge w/ ROLLER SADDLE’. The body is made from mahogany rather than the usual Basswood often favoured by Ibanez, which is much more appropriate for a vintage style instrument.
