I used to own a JP6 w/ piezo.. and i loved it... until the neck broke from a messed up truss rod... sold it for a JEM now im in the market for a JP7

Im open to all their options... I'm just looking for prices... if you could post the price you paid for your JP7 and its options that would be great... thanks gice

Posting the street prices of new EBMM instruments is frowned upon.

Prices that are okay: MSRP, used. Prices negotiated with dealer = not cool.

Whoa. I'd like to know how the neck broke and then, how you sold it with a busted truss rod.

Just curious.

well.. in regards to the broken truss question.. i was having it set up within the time i went to pick it up and i told them to lower the action.. it was set waaayy too high from the factory.. and since it was bent backwards, when they went to straighten it out there was no tension in the rod so they just told me it was shot and for some reason it took 4 months for the factory to send me a replacement.. and the replacement was really sub-standard with really shoddy fretting and what not.. now mind you im a huge EBMM fan or else i wouldnt be here... so with that..

as far as asking for prices go... the other forum i belong to doesnt belong to a company so not wanting to show prices makes sense... the only reason i asked was because no online sites sell the JP7 (of you know one please tell me) so sorry guys!

Set up too high from the factory?

4 month wait for a replacement neck?

Shoddy and sub-standard replacement?

Sorry, but that really doesn't sound like EBMM.

Nope, that positivly is not EBMM CS, I think your dealer/seller was screwing with you.
