With the website already featuring over 400 guitars, Vai has thoughtfully categorized every instrument into a range of different types, including ‘Fan Built,’ ‘Multi-Necks,’ ‘Strats,’ ‘SGs,’ ‘Pre JEM’ and many, many more. Each guitar features its own entry with accompanying photographs, as well as background information on its specifications and quirky little trivia notes on notable models.
In a Twitter post announcing the launch of the library, Vai also mentioned he’ll be periodically replying to fan comments on the site, adding more of an insight into the background stories of the instruments used by the famous shredder. Vai also encouraged his fans to use the website to help locate random instruments lost or stolen from the guitarist over the years – now that’s what I call people power.
Check out his post below, and visit the Vai guitar library here.
We just completed a comprehensive library on https://t.co/BTkeKyfJf2 of all of the guitars that Steve has ever owned! You can comment on there as well & Steve will be checking it out periodically & replying when possible. Help us find missing & stolen guitars! – The Vai Alliance pic.twitter.com/xoWMYANzuo
