JEMJRL-WH White Steve Vai signature Lefhand.
A signature model where neither the guitar nor the guitarist needs any introduction at all, there's simply nothing to say about either that everyone doesn't already know.
A more personal, and style-forming, signature model is hard to find. Every little feature on the guitar is completely after Steve's own mind and 100% how he wants his guitars. If you've seen Steve play somewhere, sometime since 1987, it's a JEM he played on. There has probably never been a more faithful user of his signature model.
The JEMJRL is exactly what it sounds like, a little brother to Steve's JEM7V-WH, in left-handed design.
A scaled-down version of its significantly more expensive big brother in terms of specs. Simpler hardware, pickups and inlays allow you to keep the price down considerably but still offer a genuine JEM for both feel and appearance.
