Planet Waves is proud to announce the introduction of the Joe Satriani Signature Collection of guitar straps and picks.

Aside from being one of the world's best guitarists, with 13 Grammy® nominations and ten million albums sold, Joe Satriani is an avid artist who has kept sketchbooks for years, and his guitars are instantly recognizable with their famous artwork. The JS Series of guitar straps and picks feature some of Satriani's own sketches and artwork inspired by his guitars.

Five premium JS Series straps are now available in 50mm tubular nylon with leather ends. Additionally, JS Series pick ten-packs are available in white with black art or black with silver art in three gauges. Each of the high-quality celluloid picks features a different Joe Satriani sketch. Every detail of each strap and pick has been approved by Satriani, who also endorses Planet Waves cables exclusively.

"Joe is not only one of the most influential guitarists of all time, he's also a great collaborator and visionary," says Planet Waves Brand Manager Mike Bradley. "This product line lets players into a whole new side of Joe's creativity and lets them bring a piece of his art home with them."

"I'm very excited about the launch of the JS/Planet Waves line featuring straps and picks with original artwork," Satriani remarks. "They look cool and work great. On stage and in the studio I've been using D'Addario's magnificent strings for decades; they're simply the best. Together, Planet Waves and D'Addario make fantastic tools for musicians and I'm proud to contribute to their product line."

JS Series straps are now shipping and retail for $29.99. JS Series picks are also shipping and retail for $6.99 (ten-pack).
