The main theme of the Jem cartoon is after all music, and the bands playing it. So why not take
a look at what all the outrageous music is supposed to be played on?
The cartoon, aswell as the doll line, presented some creative designs of instruments, some of which are inspired by
real life instruments, and some that are assumingly
unique designs from what I can find. Although
common instruments like guitars, synthesizer and drums are most in focus, this series is after all about
the music industry, so we get the chance to see all kinds of other instruments aswell, like saxophones, pianos,
different kinds of horns, maracas and more.
Cartoon:
The instruments of the characters was, for some reason, not among the top priority of things
to keep track of, and did not match the doll line completely and changed in the cartoon.
Some instruments changed after the first five episodes to resemble the doll line. But several
of them don't really resemble them anyway, and in some cases it's not even the same instrument. And
characters who do usually atleast play a certain instrument in the cartoon, are sometimes seen
playing something else, perhaps because of bloopers.
Doll line:
The miniature plastic guitars of the first year doll instruments had stickers on them, glittery or holographic. The
second year doll instruments were transparent with glitter inside. And the Music Is Magic
fashions also came with instruments with stickers on. Although most of the guitars aren't completely realistic
in terms of things like matching the amount of tuning pegs with the amount of strings, they are still very
beautiful pieces.
There were Mexican and Spanish variations aswell, some of which you can
see on this page. The Mexican ones were transparent with glitter, but had a transparent sticker at the same time.
When the Jem dolls made their comeback as a collector series by Integrity Toys, the instruments
were made alot more realistic with actual strings on the guitars, and other details aswell.
Hasbro never released instruments larger than doll size, other than the fact that two playsets were made
in instrument shapes. The KJEM guitar looked like a guitar, the Star Stage like a synthesizer,
and the waterbed was an actual working mini-synthesizer. There was atleast another company that
released a non-official saxophone packaged in the style of Jem.
This page will cover what each main character has played in the cartoon, aswell as their doll
instruments, a look at some other instruments in the cartoon
and doll line, and a little about what musical talent the characters have.
Jem/Jerrica
I'm going to mention Jem here although she doesn't really play any instruments in the cartoon, but she was originally
intended to be a guitarplayer aswell as singer according to original art, and she does mention in the episode
"The Talent Search Part 1" that she can't play drums. But she can actually play guitar according to the Jem Bible
by Christy Marx.
In the 2015 live-action movie she actually plays guitar.
Movie guitar
This is the first look at the guitar Jem plays in the movie. According to Imdb.com this is a Gibson model
designed by former Ozzy Osbourne guitarist and Black Label Society frontman Zakk Wylde.
Instrument:
Electric guitar.
First appearance:
"Jem The Movie" 2015.

Rio
Also Rio can be seen playing a guitar in the cartoon, aswell as singing, but you'd have to be
attentive to catch it. And he is after all the roadmanager who sets things up for Jem and the Holograms.
He knows everything there is to know about musical equipment, taught by Emmett Benton. Also Minx
taught him some synthesizer building.
Cartoon guitar
This is only seen in a music video, "Deception".

Instrument:
Synthesizer.

Kimber
Being the song writer for the band, it's a good thing she knows her way around instruments aswell
to make the music come alive. Infact she is brilliant with any kind of instrument in existence.
Although she usually plays her synthesizer (or keytar in the doll line) she can atleast also be seen
playing a regular guitar in the first episode "The Beginning" and atleast holding Aja's guitar on stage
in the episode "The Battle Of The Bands", and actually playing a acoustic guitar in a flashback in the
episode "Scandal" and playing an electric guitar in the episode "Father's Day".
Although in the episode "The Jazz Player" she says "what good is a guitar if you can't plug it in?".
On the packaging of the 1987 Music Is Magic fashion Rock 'n Roses,
you can see Kimber pictured wearing the fashion and holding a guitar.
In the 80's UK comics, Kimber is once seen playing a guitar, but also her keytar.
Cartoon synthesizer
This is what Kimber plays throughout the entire cartoon, regardless of what the doll line
released. It gets broken in several of the cartoon stories, but then re-appears in the next episode.
Instrument:
Synthesizer.

Aja
Aja is the lead guitarist in the Holograms, and the only guitarist until Shana changes instrument
from drums. Aja's guitar seems to be based on a Carvin V-220, reversed, except for the head.
Aja and Pizzazz seem to have each other's guitars in the first 5 episodes, by the look of the
shapes. In the episode "The Talent Search part 1" Aja says she is hopeless on drums, which is funny
because originally she was meant to play drums in the Holograms, which early artwork reveals, and
before that she was going to play synthesizer. In the 80's UK comics, Aja once plays a standing keyboard.
In the new comics by IDW Publishing, it is said in her bio that she plays drums and piano, and that
she has a limited edition caribbean blue Les Paul Supreme guitar. In the 2015 live-action movie, Aja
plays bass guitar and drums.
Cartoon guitar
This guitar was actually supposed to be Pizzazz' guitar, but Aja had it in the show intro and the first 5 episodes.
It gets broken in the first episode "The Beginning" but then re-appears in the next episode.
White with dark pink neck. Also seen in bright pink with gray neck.
And also surprisingly
seen in it's correct later shape, already in the "The Battle Of The Bands" in the music video

Shana
She was originally meant to play guitar in the Holograms, and the doll came with a guitar, and according to the
cartoon storyboard she was meant to play keyboard for a while,
but from the first episode she is on drums.
However in the episode "The Talent Search Part 1" Shana picks up Aja's guitar and says she misses playing guitar,
she leaves shortly for a designer career and then when Raya joins the band and takes over on drums and Shana returns,
Shana is able to play guitar. Shana's doll guitar seems to be a B.C. Rich Mocking bird, and
also somewhat resembles a "Siggi Braun Blackbird". On the packaging of the 1987 Music Is Magic fashion Electric Chords,
you can see Shana pictured wearing the fashion and holding some sort of a keyboard, so perhaps she plays that too.
In the 80's UK comics, Shana is seen playing guitar rather than drums.

Raya
Raya is the current drummer of the band, and that's the only instrument we see her play,
although she is a natural on any kind of percussion instrument. Raya's mother didn't really think playing
drums was something a young lady should do, but her father always encouraged her and is the one who told her
about the Talent Search.
It seems like Raya took over Shana's drums, since the drums Raya's had before, looked very
different than what she plays in the Holograms.
On the packaging of the 1987 Music Is Magic fashion Rhythm & Flash,
you can see Raya pictured wearing the fashion and holding a tambourine.

Pizzazz
Pizzazz doesn't just sing in the Misfits, she also plays guitar which adds to her wild image.
Aja and Pizzazz seem to have each other's guitars in the first 5 episodes, by the look of the
shapes. Pizzazz doll guitar is the only doll guitar that has tuners on two sides of the head, until the
Integrity Toys Aja guitar. Pizzazz' guitar somewhat resembles an AX360 or even a B.C. Rich Virgo.
She has also been seen playing a different looking pink guitar in the original cartoon intro.
Then in "The Beginning" she drives a guitarshaped motorcycle, which is seen in white or pink and
resembles her first pink guitar
(later Aja's guitar). Then in the music video "Outta My Way" she plays
a guitar that resemble Aja's first cartoon guitar in colors, but not in shape.
In the 80's UK comics, Pizzazz once plays a guitar shaped as Roxy's from the cartoon.
Cartoon guitar
This guitar was really meant to be Aja's, and resembles the Aja doll's guitar in shape, but is
played by Pizzazz in the first 5 episodes. Also played by Stormer in "The Battle Of The Bands".
Also seen as pink with gray neck.
Instrument:

color also, but strangely most of all the doll line's Spanish variation which was pink with a
holographic sticker. In the cartoon episode "Starbright Part Three: Rising Star" she smashes it to pieces.
Also played once by Stormer in "One Jem Too Many".

Roxy
She is the regular guitar player in the band. Originally she was meant to play drums though.
She has also been seen playing Stormer's keytar in the original cartoon intro.
In "The Beginning" she drives a pink guitarshaped motorcycle that
looks like the guitar she then plays in the music video "Outta My Way". She has also been seen
playing Pizzazz' first cartoon guitar in the episode "Disaster", aswell as purple/yellow
drums in the episode "Danse Time".
Roxy's established guitar seems based on a Ibanez Destoyer DT, and also somewhat resembles
a Gibson Explorer or a Snakebyte. In the 2015 IDW Publishing comic, she plays drums, based
on the blooper in the 80's cartoon episode "Danse Time".
In the 80's UK comics, Roxy once plays a guitar shaped as Pizzazz' from the cartoon.

on drums here.

Stormer
Early plans for Stormer was for her to play bass guitar.
Stormer got a keytar in the cartoon, but a guitar in the doll line which seems based on a
Roland G-707. Atleast they're all
yellow. But she was seen playing a pink guitar in the original cartoon intro, and holding a pink one
in "The Battle Of The Bands" that looks like Pizzazz' first guitar.
In "The Beginning" she drives a yellow guitarshaped motorcycle that looks a guitar she then
is seen playing in the music video "Outta My Way". Then she also plays Pizzazz'
second cartoon guitar in the music video "Congratulations" in the episode "One Jem Too Many".
In the episode "The Stingers Hit Town Part Two" she plays an acoustic guitar at home.

Jetta
What a cool idea to make the new misfit a saxophone player, which added a new sound to them.
Originally she was meant to play bass guitar, but ended up as the saxophone player.
She has also been seen playing Stormer's yellow keytar in the music video "Congratulations" in the
episode "One Jem Too Many". In the new 2015 comic by IDW Publishing Jetta plays bass guitar, and
originally in the 2015 comic they wanted her to play drums, because a saxophone was so 80's, but
since they had turned her black, they didn't want the black character in each group to be placed
in the background like that.

Unfortunately she doesn't have any musical talent at all, except for clashing her cymbals togheter,
which seems to cause more disturbance than music.

Riot
Originally he was meant to play an instrument called a "SynthAxe", which was a synthesizer-guitar.
Other than being the singer of the band, he also plays guitar sometimes, and can also play piano/synthesizer.
The doll guitar was to have the same shape as Shana's doll guitar. He's also been seen in some
unidentified perhaps official artwork with another kind of yellow guitar. In the cartoon we first saw him with
a guitar in the episode "Riot's Hope", where he was seen in present time with a black guitar and in the past
with a yellow guitar, the latter which was chosen for release with the 2013 Integrity Toys doll.

Minx
Minx knows everything about all the brands of synthesizers, and how to build them, which a great part of the episode
"A Change Of Heart" tells the story of. Her own synthesizer is called Entropy, and she uses it to make sounds
for instruments like drums, guitars, keyboards, horns, woodwinds, and even non-instrumental sounds like birds, howls, the wind or
anything.
The doll was actually going to come with a tambourine, which
is funny because only Rapture was seen playing one in the cartoon ("Riot's Hope").
Minx is also seen playing Rapture's guitar in the music video "Now" in the episode
"The Stingers Hit Town Part Two". The name "Entropy" was actually to be used in the movie Chrity Marx was
planning, where it was more than an instrument and actually a powerful masculine counterpart of Synergy, played
by the musical duo "The Mongrels".

Starlights
The Starlight girls play in their own band or atleast practice some times, dreaming of their own band. Deidre is seen playing
a guitar that is shaped as Shana's doll guitar in
the episode "The Music Awards Part 1". And in the episode "The Jem Jam Part 1" they play the Holograms' instruments,
Becky plays Kimber's synthesizer, Lela plays Shana's drums, Deidre plays Aja's second cartoon guitar, and then also Ashley is
playing Aja's second cartoon guitar for a moment. Then in
"The Jem Jam Part 2" they strangely not only changed instruments to more regular versions, but also Lela and Becky has
changed instruments with each other, and Ashley plays guitar.
Other instruments of the cartoon
The Jem cartoon included other bands, and also other temporary instruments for the
multitalented main characters. Also to come, is a view of some of the instruments Emmett Benton
left for his daughters.
