Right, here we go for a first post...
I've had a JP7 for a few years now and it's pretty good. However, I miss a decent floating trem and the pickup selector is in the wrong place (keep hitting it when strumming...). The low B is always getting snagged in the bridge so goes sharp as well. Niggling issues? Maybe, but it's these things that stop me really loving the guitar. It's major distiguishing point is the piezo - love it.
So... I've got about £1500 ($1700?) for a new 7. Do I go for an Ibby RG752AHM then do a piezo mod, or a Kiesel, or something else? Needs to be a floating trem; body needs to be pointy.
If you go on reverb I believe there's one or two prestige models for sale with piezo already. That being said I've own prestige ibanez guitars and a few JP7 models and BFR models and personally I find the Music Man way better I'm absolutely In love with their trem (all personal preference) but I'm suprised you dont like the layout of the controls it was pretty well laid out I thought, unless you're a strummer then ya i guess it would be a problem. You can even do a reverb search of piezo to see what comes up.
