The UV77RE is a Universe series solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in 2010. It is a seven-string signature model of American guitarist Steve Vai. The UV77RE was built in Japan by Sugi.
It is a reissue of the 1990 UV77 in honor of the twentieth anniversary of that model's release. Included with the guitar is an Ibanez flight case, special printed high quality 'Passion And Warfare' poster and a special certification. The guitars carry a blank plate at the base of the neck joint. The serial number is on the rosewood neck below the 24th fret. The guitars also come in a heavy duty tribute Ibanez case with twist locking rather than latches.
Production of the UV77RE was limited to 100 examples and it was offered only in 2010.
