Hey everyone, this is my first post here. I'm usually on SS.org, I think I'm "edusty201087" over there, but Dusty was open here, so I'm just Dusty now :cool:

Anyways, I was wondering a few things. One is, are there currently any plans to have a Sterling JP7, to accommodate the 7 string community? Also, I've heard rumblings about a possible ebony board option. Is this true? Last but not least, if the aforementioned IS true, would a maple board be possible as well? I'd love a Stealth JP7 with a Maple board.

Thanks for reading! :D

P.S. What's up with no one having JP7's in stock now? It's all BFR's. They're nice and all - don't get me wrong - but I certainly can't afford one, whereas the normal JP7 is closer to my price range. Is the model being discontinued? I wouldn't be so confused but I haven't heard anything about it and the JP7 is still on the website so... What's the deal guys?

ss.org as in 7string.org right? you wouldn't have us worry for nothig, right?

about you 7 string sterling, i'm not sure if you're gonna get it but you're halfway in the right place. don't forget sterling is a somewhat separate enterprise. personally, i think it's a good idea; since the EBMM JP7 is a bit pricey (although totally worth it), in particullar to anyone who doesn't play 7 string all the times or to budding guitarists.

let's see if anyone from the co. will chime in.

Oh...I thought he meant a Sterling Silver JP7. That's no problem with a rosewood board. Ebony? Not so much unless you get a Koa BFR JP7 or a Dargie Delight 2 JP7.

yea... you have to remember that even though there are a couple of JPs with ebony boards available.. it is not an option. I.e. you can't get the dargie 2 with a rosewood board too, and you can't order a JP with an ebony board unless it's dargie 2, koa, or I think the stealth. So, likely no maple anytime soon at all.
