well back on page 32 i said i didn't like the Crunch Lab. not long after that i ended up putting in a Bareknuckle Pickups Painkiller in. it really helped tighten up the basswood body. i am interested in buying other BKP's to try but i must say i really like the Painkiller in it. a lot of poeple say it's too harsh but i must say, with this guitar that is not the case. it's def must more articulate now though!

I have the Painkiller in another guitar and I really like it. I have blackhawks in my JP7 and I love them!

My Emerald Green JP12-7 was delivered yesterday and wow...what an amazing instrument. By far the best guitar I've ever played, couldn't be happier with my purchase. I've played a few JPs over the years in shops, but never for more than 15 or so mins at a time. After a few hours of jamming on it, I'm still in awe. Perfection on every level. I'm already planning on selling a few of my other guitars to fund another one haha. Don't have access to a good camera right now, but I took some quick pics with my phone. These pictures do the finish no justice at all, it looks absolutely amazing in person. Going to do a proper NGD thread one day next week when I can get some decent pictures and a sound clip with it, but here's some guitar porn to hold you over :hbang:

Did you need to route out the pickup cavity at all to help the BKP's fit?

If those pics represent what the emerald green looks like IRL then it is amazing!!!! The pics online always look way too sparkly/gaudy.

I have a question to the ones among you who own a JP6 and a JP7:

I was never satisfied with any of the 7string guitars I have owned in terms of playability. But i love how my JP6 plays. I assume that the JP7 is equal in terms of playability to the JP6 but only with an aditional string.

Am I guessing right?
How is the JP6 compared to the JP7?

thanks

what he said ^^
The neck profile is pretty much the exact same as a jp6.
But not a BFR
BFR necks feel slightly chunkier, but still amazing

thanks for the answers. So BFR necks are a bit chunkier. How about the necks of the JPX, XI and 12? Are they also chunkier? do they feel sticky since they are painted? How is the feel of the neck compared to the waxed neck of the normal JPs?

Anyone know if there's any chance of seeing a 7-string Albert Lee or Armada? I love my Majesty and JP13 but I'm feelin these other models - I think I'm officially a EBMM fanboy :)
