Independent shopping perspective
Nita Strauss’s JIVA10 signature model takes the S Series as its foundation, pairing a mahogany double-cutaway body with a quilted maple top in Deep Space Blonde. Its 25.5-inch scale, 24 jumbo frets, ebony fingerboard, and JIVA neck shape establish the playing layout. The passive HSH arrangement combines DiMarzio Pandemonium humbuckers at neck and bridge with a True Velvet single-coil in the middle. A five-way switch adds coil-split voices in positions two and four, while the Edge-Zero II tremolo handles bridge duties.
