Jan 16, 2006 I have a 81 Ibanez Artist and I need to put the original Super 58's back in it. I also need an original wiring diagram for the Super 58 pickups. Ron: I have Ibanez guitar 83` model (Les Paul copy)with SUPER 58 pickups and I have problem with sound of bridge pick up.

The Ibanez Jet King is the term for a family of electric guitars sold by Ibanez . The family includes:

• Jet King 1 (JTK1) — resembles EJ-2 by FujiGen^[1] and Teisco MJ-2.^[2]
• Jet King 2 (JTK2) — resembles Ibanez Rhythm Maker by Guyatone in 1960s.^[3][4][5]
• Jet King 3 (JTK3)
• Jet King 4 (JTK4)

Re: Wiring help - Ibanez 5 way switch There is no need really to put in a Superswitch or Megaswitch. If I was you I would follow the wiring from the Ibanez diagram you posted (do mind the wire color codes though, Duncans and DiMarzios using different wiring color codes then the Ibanez pups, you can find them at the Duncan and DiMarzio website, Airhead posted the links. Hello, I have a 1984 Ibanez RS1010SL-Steve Lukather Signature Series, which I bought new, and it has a super 58 pickup in the neck position and a SL Special in the bridge position. The volume and tone knobs also serve to split the two pickups from humbuckers to single coil which I like very much along with the sound of them.

Jet King 1[edit]

According to the Harmony Central press release the original JTK1 had the following pickups: Neck Pickup: Powersound PSND1 Humbucker, Bridge Pickup: Powersound PSND2 Humbucker.Some owners of the JTK1 have however reported finding Ibanez Super 58 pickups... although whether these were later production models and shortly before the phasing towards JTK2 is unestablished.It had a different body compared to later versions, with a smaller upper horn and the tuners were 3-a-side. It was available in Butterscotch Transparent, Ivory, Metallic Light Blue, and Black Red Sunburst.

Jet King 2[edit]

The Jet King 2 (Also, Jet King II, Jetking II, JTK2) was essentially an upgrade of the original. The machine heads now were on one side, and the body was changed to its current shape.

The first and discontinued edition of the Jet King II is probably the most collectible of all the range.^{[citation needed]} The body is finished in brown sunburst with tortoise pickguard and has two Ibanez Super 58 pickups for neck and bridge. The Jet King II models made from 2003/11 to 2004/10 features a 1-piece maple bolt-on neck with rosewood fingerboard and the body is mahogany. The second and most popular edition of the JTK 2 (black and white and red and white) has only one Super 58 pickup for the neck, one Axis pickup for the bridge and a 3-piece neck like most Ibanez guitars. Standard colors for the Jet King II second edition were black or red with white pickguards, though examples of a white body and black pickguards have been seen.^{[citation needed]}The Ibanez Super 58 pickup has a warm vintage sound while the Axis has a brighter and more aggressive sound. It has one volume knob, one tone knob, 'rocker switches' used for coil splitting (for even more versatility), a fixed Full Tune III bridge and a string-thru body construction, providing fair sustain. The 'rocker switches' allow this guitar to be very versatile.^{[citation needed]} Some players^[who?] claim it can imitate a Fender Jazzmaster or a Gibson Les Paul.

Jet King 3 and 4[edit]

At the NAMM 2007 show, two new Jet Kings were revealed. The 'retro-style' mahogany body remained the same; however, unlike its predecessors, no rocker coil splits were included on the new models.

The Jet King 3 features two P-90 style soapbar pickups, the IBZ HFS1, and IBZ HFS2. Standard colors are 'Roadster Orange Metallic' and 'Bluestone.' 'Turquoise', and 'Red Bean' colors are available in limited markets.

The Jet King 4 featured a Bigsby-style tremolo and two humbuckers, the ACH3 neck pickup and ACH4 bridge pickup.

   Note1: the design origin (including side-block fret marker on JTK1) might can be dated back to 1959 Marco Polo 'TL-59', produced by Guyatone, built by Kiso Suzuki Violin:

Guyatone was also particularly known for their 'Gold Screen' pickups. Featuring a Rosewood Fingerboard with Side-Block Fret Markers ...
   Later, this model seems evolved into Guyatone LG-55W and LG-65T (Kent 530 Las Vegas) which designs were more sophisticated than FujiGen EJ-2 (1962):

And, according to the 'Genesis of FujiGenArchived 2013-01-16 at the Wayback Machine' site, several of Kawai models at that time were also sometimes manufactured by FujiGen (with the request of trade buyer), to fill the shortage of production of Kawai, and these models are seen on the 1965 photograph of FujiGen office.
