bloody hell..so it isn't a joke after all....

YUCK! (especially the cheap-looking blueish decal....did Steve approve that?)

[Jem-7vwh-agg]

Terrible...

Actually, now I prefer the new JSBlackdog over this one.


Does Ibanez have any Baritone guitars still?

lose the decal and it'll be simply ok.

No comment....

i like the guitar i mean, it's not horrible, that's what was promised right??

but the hieroglyph doesn't look very good. and they really should make a white one with evos

1: black and chrome, exactly the same as the 77? pretty uncreative
2: of course the shit looking decal/hierogylph/thing too, hopefully the decal looks better in person, but its hard for that to be true when the design itself is pretty bad

[Kurac777]

Ohmy... no way.

[Stephen Brown]

I like the design.

[Jem-7vwh-agg]

I like the design.

What design?

[Stephen Brown]

I like the design.

What design?

New trem, no locking nut, graphic & symbol.

Um.....
It's not a trem.
It's a hard tail.
Meaning it has no trem.
Meaning it's a hard tail.

Well i just don't see anything inovative and new...(that's exactly what Jems used to be)


It's a hard tail = no locking nut.

Not my cup of tea....

I say, if it's a JEM, keep it a JEM.
That means make it innovative and different.
If it's a hard tail, fine. But at least make some improvements on what's already out there.
And, for future reference, Ibanez, DON'T PUT BIG CHEEZY DECALS ON THE BODY OF A GUITAR THAT YOU EXPECT PEOPLE TO TAKE SERIOUSLY.

Here's my thought:

Give it the sustainer.
That that would up the innovation of it and maybe make it somewhat desirable.
