Hi there!
On january i'll be travelling to USA on vacation and i will bring a musicman with me to argentina! :O
I'll be going to miami, orlando, new york and washington DC.!
Do you have an idea which is the best place to get a musicman?
I'm thinking of buying the JP12-7string! even though the JPX-7 or JPXI-7 wouldn't be a bad idea!

Sounds like an exciting trip and you get to see many places. Here is the link to the dealers that carry Music Man guitars
Ernie Ball Music Man Dealer Locator

If you know when you will be in the area you can always call ahead to the dealers before you get there and ask them about their inventory and if you are near the Manhattan Guitar Center I believe they have a pretty big selection as well. Best of luck finding your new EBMM! Let us know when you pick it up, with pictures of course! :)

I know some of the dealers but i wanted the best one! i've heard guitar center is not very spot on with setup and i may not be able to try them out fairly!

Go to Bass Central which is in Fern Park, right outside of Orlando. Big selection and good prices.

Here in Argentina they look down on you when you try a guitar, they look at you in a bad way and they don't let you try many (IF ANY) guitars is this different in USA? :p

Sorry for this reply english speaking knucks!...

Hola!

Te recomiendo comprarla en Florida. El impuesto es menor que en NY, así que ahorras unos pesos por eso.

El Guitar Center es una buena opción, y puedes negociar precios. BassCentral también es un gran lugar, pero está más lejos.

Éxito!

Rest assured, you can try as many guitars as you want in the USA. You can even try some you can't afford. Feel free to plug into an amp and play.

Sorry guys this is an advise in Spanish: Si no probas no sabes

No hagas caso a lo que dicen a la gente le gusta hablar de lo que no saben, las guitarras vienen con setup de Music-Man, si tiene tremolo lo ponen como si fuera hard-tail, ademas mas vale que evalues la guitarra por lo que es y no por cosas menores como el setup o comprar en GC o en otro lugar, Florida no tiene tax-sales (impuesto de venta). Ademas podes comparar contra otras guitarras de buena calidad, cosa que no podes hacer en Argentina.
Buena suerte!

Ojo, Florida SI tiene impuestos a las ventas, que es aprox. 6%. Menos que en NY, pero existe.

Si vas con dinero en efectivo, vas a poder negociar un 5-10% del precio. A mi me ha resultado sin problemas. Con tarjeta a lo mejor un 5% te lo hacen sin problemas...

Good luck. Im loving the international flavour here today.......

Hahahaha, well It's not quite common i guess for an argentinian to own a EBMM JP, here it's like twice the price
Maybe someday I'll get to be the first argentinian artist :D
