What's more, all purchases of $45 dollars or more will automatically receive an autographed photo of Steve and one of Steve's guitar picks!

You could win one of seven amazing prizes, including:

FIRST PRIZE:
An Ibanez Steve Vai Signature Jem7VWH electric guitar - autographed by Steve twice (on the body pictured left, and on the back of the headstock) complete with hard-shell Ibanez Prestige case.

The Ibanez Jem7VWH features a contoured alder body and 24-fret Prestige JEM neck with rosewood fingerboard, providing easy access to all registers; a deep routed "lion's claw" tremolo cavity allowing pitches to be lowered or raised; Vai's choice of DiMarzio® Evolution pickups combined with Ibanez Split-5 wiring providing incredible tonal versatility; pearl/abalone vine inlay and gold hardware.

The Guitar also comes with a box of Ernie Ball Super Slinky 9-42 Gauge strings.

SECOND PRIZE:
A Carvin Steve Vai Signature Legacy 212 100-Watt Combo Guitar Amplifier.

A seamless combination of art and tone, the Legacy is the product of countless hours or development and testing, to create this one-of-a-kind amp. Steve worked very closely with Carvin Engineering to develop the sound and look of the Legacy Amplifiers from the choice of EL34 tubes to the Celestion™ Vintage 30 speakers.

The Legacy features two incredible sounding channels (clean and overdrive/sustain), with separate volume, bass, mid, treble, and presence controls for each channel. Master Reverb for both channels, 4, 8, and 16 ohm speaker impedance switch, effects loop, all tube design: four-EL34, five-12AX7A.

THIRD PRIZE:
A pair of DiMarzio Steve Vai Signature pickups: Evolution® Neck (DP158) and Evo 2™ Bridge (DP215).

The Evolution® Neck humbuckers are the result of two years of research to come up with the right sound for Steve Vai and his Ibanez® Jems. Evolution pickups are designed for maximum impact and power. The neck pickup is fat, punchy and loud and features DiMarzio's patented dual-resonance configuration to reproduce more harmonic overtones than conventional humbuckers.

The original Evolution® bridge model did exactly what Steve Vai wanted it to do: kick butt and produce serious scream. Now Steve wants something a little more complex - the same basic tone with increased headroom and dynamics, so that the sound kills on 10 and cleans up when the volume is rolled down. With a little less power than the original Evolution®, Evo 2™ balances perfectly with the Evolution® neck model and performs equally well with high gain and vintage amps.

FOURTH PRIZE:
A Morley Steve Vai Signature Bad Horsie 2 Contour Wah Pedal.

The Morley Steve Vai Bad Horsie 2 Contour Wah Pedal is set to Steve's precise specifications. Kick on the Contour Wah switch and 2 knobs allow you to alter the wah frequency and level. Morley's special Clear-Tone buffer circuitry prevents signal loading, provides superior wah tonality, and drives long cables.

FIFTH PRIZE:
A Morley Steve Vai Signature Bad Horsie Wah Pedal.

The Morley Steve Vai Bad Horsie Wah Pedal is equipped with Morley's superior electro-optical circuitry to handle the heavy wah. This effects pedal is switchless for easy use. You just step on the pedal to engage wah and step off to bypass. Special buffer circuitry prevents signal loading, gives you superior wah tone, and drives long cables. LED indicator and easy-access battery compartment.

SIXTH PRIZE:
A Morley Steve Vai Little Alligator Volume Pedal.

The Morley Little Alligator Volume Pedal is a better volume pedal, equipped with Morley's electro-optical circuitry to ensure noise-free, super-dependable operation. The consistently smooth audio taper is set to Steve's painstaking specifications. A minimum volume knob is provided for setting a smooth transition between rhythm and lead volumes.

SEVENTH PRIZE:
Two boxes of Ernie Ball Super Slinky 9-42 Gauge Nickel Wound Strings.

Ernie Ball strings are precision manufactured to the highest standards and most exacting specs to assure consistency, optimum performance, and long life. Ernie Ball is the pioneer of rock and roll guitar strings. Setting the standard for the industry has enabled Slinky strings to become the world's top selling brand. Steve uses the 9-42 Super Slinky strings.
