The JS2, also known as the JS2 CH, is a solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez in 1990. It is a signature model of American guitarist Joe Satriani and part of the Joe Satriani series.

The JS2 was Ibanez's first attempt to create a chrome-plated JS model. Due to problems with the chroming process, the guitar was never distributed and only a few were made. In 1998 Ibanez tried again to produce a chromed guitar with the JS10th.

The JS2 featured an American basswood body mated to a maple neck with a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard with pearl dot position markers. Components include a double locking tremolo bridge, a locking nut and dual DiMarzio humbucking pickups.
