Heya!
Recorded a video last night of me playing an acoustic song and since it was quite late I didn't want to plug it into my amp and run the piezo through the clean channel so I just played the song unplugged.

What I noticed was that it still sounds AMAZING and has that crystal clean "edge" to it.
I'm still in love with my guitar, well worth what I payed for it and I'm still telling everyone to get EBMM when they're shopping for a new guitar.

Sounds nice indeed! JPs truly are specked with accoustic vibes. Guess that´s what you get when you combine quality materials with precision craftsmanship.

My guitar tech always says ... "An electric guitar is an acoustic instrument. It has a wood body, wood neck, a nut, bridge and strings. Not much different than an acoustic guitar, really. It just has electronic pickups. If it sounds like crap unplugged, its going to sound like crap plugged in ... just louder."

That being said, he thinks my 2 EBMM's sound incredible not plugged in and even better plugged in.

Here is a little cool trick whenever you practice un plugged. Lean your guitars headstock to where the tip just touches something like a dresser, and it will be acoustically twice as loud.

Yup it sounds great - put an old one out of his misery - what song is that?

Sorry for the slow reply! It is a song called Postcard by a group named Self Deception. It's a swedish band, you can find their facebook-page here: Self Deception | Facebook

You nailed it! I agree totally

I will definitely try that!! :D

Thanks everyone for your comments!
If anyone's interested, this was recorded with the new iPhone 4S(the front camera which is like really bad compared to the back camera that shoots in 1080p) and I must say that it is still really nice quality! Both sound-wise and video-wise.

I don't know about the chambered JPX, but I recorded myself unplugged too some years ago :)

Sounds great. I have one of those JPs too. My Morse is chambered and in fact is my #1 barefoot guitar
