I'll buy jp12 7 String or wait fot the sterlingbymusicman JP7 + a nice amp

What would you choose?

That's easy. If you don't have a nice amp, go that route. If you already have one, get the JP12.

I'll be joining you in the queue.

Can't wait to get my hands on that guitar although I keep flip-flopping on the 6 or 7 string version.

I'll be in that line as well unless I find a good deal on a used JPX or JPXI.

There's a jpxi for sale for 2200 I believe in the forum. There was one for 2000 but it was snagged up quick!

You could buy a new one for around that right now with the 15% off that a certain retailer is offering. Just saying...

Which retailer? I see Musician's Friend has a 15% off deal but Music Man is excluded. Help!

I didn't know EBMM was excluded. In that case, Prymaxe has 10% off or you could wait for another GC weekly sale.

There's a recent thread on the Sterling line. I don't recall them directly saying that the JP7 was made but it seemed to be hinted at. Take that for whatever you will.

Hard to say really. I would probably go for the nice amplifier. My next amplifier will definitely be the Mesa Mark V. Beautiful amp! One of the saddest days of my life was spending about a half hour jamming with a Mark V and having to leave the store without buying it.

I got the combo and love it. One thing that surprised me about it is that I can actually play it at bedroom levels too.

the mesa amps are expensive but are really very good sounding...i have enough budget money for jp12 only = no mesa amp or
sterling jp7 and a small mesa amp...............
