Ibanez JEM7V7

[27InchScale]

Hope im not reposting this, couldnt find a thread on it. Is MAP on this $4,399.99 or is that selling price? Does anyone know what the actual price this guitar is gonna go for? I'm stoked it has the lo pro edge 7! Hope this guitar is in my price range cause I'm craving it!

Around 3000 IIRC, and 7620's have the lo-pro 7 as well BTW

Its $3300 at musicians friend and it has been discussed at length in the Ibanez 2013 thread.
I can't believe you didn't read all 93 pages...

Yea I have a uv7pwh, k7 and RG7620VK which all have the lo pro edge!

So does anyone else want this guitar and why?

 

[mr_rainmaker]

I estimate around 3300???

and yes i would like to have this guitar but too rich for my blood.

€3075($4130) for us EU guys.

€200 cheaper than a RG20127 J-custom and twice the price of an Apex1. Amazing looking guitar and I'd love to own one but not a chance at that price or anywhere near it.

I want one because it's beautiful and I'm totally in love with Steve Vai. All Homo.

Found a Japenese selling one that took some pics.

Hey I love the guitar and all but I think its a travesty that they go and name it a "Jem" and then put Blaze's in it.... Should have Evo's as the Jem does...

Beautiful

I am struggling big time with two new Steve Vai 7 strings.
I've been waiting and hoping Ibanez would do a reissue of the Green Dot for a long time (the original UV7bk's are as rare as hens teeth where I live and I like to buy new). So I was excited when they announced a reissue, but disappointed that it's not MIJ and has the Edge II.
But then there's the Jem 7V7, which would be an awesome guitar, but I'm not total in love with the white and gold. I kinda like it, but not sure that I like it enough to spend $3300 on it.
So, I am yet to decide between the two... or, I just wait another few years to see if that illusive "perfect" guitar is ever made.

That Jem sure is purdy. Really nice looking, but I'd feel kinda weird trying to rockout with it.

 

[27InchScale]

Does anyone actually have one of these????

 

[Jzbass25]

Yeah it is pretty expensive... It does come with the new carbon fiber bar though which is like 90 bucks... I want one though since I prefer the tone (mostly transient response) of my guitars without the bar in but I love using my whammy.

There's a practically NOS Green Dot in the classifieds right now. Even with shipping and import it probably won't cost you $3300.

Doubtful, as I was told these wouldn't be hitting the US till April/May by my local dealer. Some places say March, but......look at the calendar.

I think its the "most clever" Jem Ibanez has ever come up with. It confuses the Jem/Universe paradigm of "Jems have 6 strings, Universes have 7 strings, and they are both Steve Vai's signature model guitars." I would actually buy one but its a long way down the list!

A 7 string Jem is a very beautiful and desirable thing. Gorgeous- much more so (to me) than the Universe...

But then I do so love my RG1527. And it's blue.

Damn, that's hot. I'll take 12.

Not to mention all the high end Jems already have 7 in their model number.
