Ibanez Jem Bass – Dusty Hill Collection<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Dusty Hill<\/strong> is one of the most respected and recognized musicians in the contemporary music scene. As the iconic bassist of ZZ Top<\/strong> and the longtime partner of Billy Gibbons, he established his own playing style and helped shape some of the greatest rock hits of the 21st century. On stage, Dusty Hill and Billy Gibbons not only harmonized musically, but also visually, with matching outfits and custom-built instruments crafted especially for them by their luthier, John Bolin (including the “Bug<\/strong><\/em>“, “Jelly Bean<\/strong><\/em>“, and “Crazy Cowboy Guitar<\/strong><\/em>“, all on display at Matt’s Guitar Shop). His status as a talented bassist also earned him the deep respect of his peers.<\/p>\n This Ibanez Jem bass<\/strong> in vivid colors is a true rarity among Ibanez instruments. Based on the Jem model created by Steve Vai, this bass is one of the only\u2014if not the only\u2014Jem bass in existence. It was likely sent to Dusty Hill in recognition of his status as a distinguished bassist, and he played and appreciated it. With its striking \u201cDesert Sun Yellow\u201d finish, this bass is an exceptionally rare collector\u2019s piece. It serves as a remarkable example of the relationship between renowned musicians and manufacturers, as well as a testament to Dusty Hill\u2019s stature. An extraordinary collector\u2019s item for any fan of rock, ZZ Top, or Ibanez guitars.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7436,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[358,359,352],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-16720","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-guitars","7":"product_cat-bass-guitars","8":"product_cat-artists","9":"pa_artiste-dusty-hill-en","10":"pa_disponibilite-for-sale","11":"pa_marque-ibanez-en","13":"first","14":"instock","15":"shipping-taxable","16":"purchasable","17":"product-type-simple"},"yoast_head":"\n
