The JPCS8 "TOTALLY JAZZED" is a multi-scale Artcore series hollow body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez for 2022. It was crafted by the Japan Custom Shop in Nagoya as part of the 50th anniversary of Ibanez’s US-based distributor Hoshino U.S.A. Inc.

The JPCS8 is a One-off model which is sold exclusively by select Ibanez music retailers.

The first and most noticeable difference to other Ibanez jazz guitars is the multi-scale construction. The spread on scale lengths is 24.75” on the high E and 25.5” on the low E. The benefits offered are ergonomic as well as tonal.

The JPCS8 - "TOTALLY JAZZED" features a full-hollow body design with spruce top with ƒ holes and ivory multi-binding on flamed maple back and sides with a single Venetian cutaway mated to a set-in african mahogany neck with 22-fret ebony fingerboard with black side dots position markers, a black headstock with the Ibanez logo. Components include a Bartolini™ 1C Humbucking pickups in neck position, a Gotoh Tune-o-matic bridge. Black hardware and Gotoh tuning machines. Includes Hardshell Case & Certificate of Authenticity.
