The JP20 is a hollow body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez for 1982. It was made in Japan initially by FujiGen; production moved to Terada sometime in 1986.
The JP20 features a full-sized, single cutaway, full hollow body design with an arched spruce top with ƒ holes and multi-layer binding on maple back and sides mated to a set-in three-piece maple neck with a 22-fret ebony fingerboard with binding and pearl and abalone split block position markers. Components include a single Ibanez Super 58 humbucking pickup with a gold cover mounted in a black pickup ring between the neck and bridge; a height-adjustable ebony bridge with ebony tailpiece; a bone nut; a tortoise pickguard; Sure Grip knobs; and VelveTune tuning machines with pearloid acrylic buttons.
The JP20 is modeled off a D'Aquisto 16" archtop which Pass owned. Pass primary design stipulation was a guitar that would accommodate his finger-style playing technique. To that end the JP20 has a 25½" scale and a fretboard with 22 frets instead of the more common 20 fret neck on a typical jazz box. This fretboard change means that the pickup is situated closer to the bridge by 3–4 cm compared to a "typical" jazz guitar like the AF200, which can cause the JP20s electric sound to be a bit thinner.
The serial numbering system for the JP20 differs from the standard system used by FujiGen at the time. The system for these guitars appears to be JYPPPPY, where "J" presumably stands for Joe (Pass), the first and last digit together represent the year of production and the four digits between them are the production sequence for that year.
The JP20 was discontinued after 1990.
