I am happy to see I am not alone in my mental acrobatics. I also use the reverb wishlist as a catalog. I keep looking at it until the novelty wears off and only buy something if it's really standing out among the bulk.You can do like I do when making a decision like this. Wait long enough and they'll all be gone, decision made!
Back on topic: I have not had a Music Man that wasn't REALLY well made. I have had Jackson's (Japan mainly) that were less impressive.
Between OP's choices I'd go for the Music Man or the EII. But I wouldn't pay upward from 1300-1500 for the E-II knowing there's still a bunch of standards under 2k floating around. In my experience those are more consistent.
Good thing is all of these are great guitars so if you buy smart and don't like it you can move on to the next after selling it again.
