Jake Bowen from Periphery has teamed up with Ibanez to create a range of signature guitars, designed for progressive metal players. The JBM100 is the top of the range Prestige model, with a range of high-quality features that make it ultra-playable with incredible tones to match. It's fast, solid and has a classy aesthetic.
DiMarzio Titan Pickups
Jake Bowen is one of the new generation of guitarists on the cutting edge of progressive rock/metal. His sound and Periphery in general are redefining metal guitar, and his pickups play a major part in his tone.
The Titan Neck and Bridge Model pickups were developed by DiMarzio for his new signature guitar. Jake’s bridge pickup is crucial to his sound, and it provides you with a tight and responsive attack. It also delivers great dynamics for right-hand playing, yet still keeps the aggressiveness and mid-range punch that Periphery’s music calls for.
Lo-Pro Edge Tremolo
The renowned Lo-Pro locking Edge bridge offers maximum playing comfort, with its low profile ensuring that the micro tuners are out of your way and not digging into your hand whilst palm-muting. Its double-locking design provides you with amazing tuning stability, no matter how much whammy bar antics you put it through.
Solid Construction
The 5pc Maple/Walnut neck is stable and solid, meaning that you will hardly ever have to adjust the truss rod. The Ebony fretboard delivers a bold low-end and a snappy tone, which lets your technical riffs pop and cut through the busiest of mixes. A Mahogany body provides a full-bodied, warm sound that gives a push across the guitar’s whole frequency range. The maple top brings out more brightness, adding more clarity and definition to the instrument.
