JEM 7VWH Japan Model 96!
Evolution neck and bridge pickups micro jem single center 5-way switch
ibanez floyd rose + one volume and one tone
maple neck and ebony fingerboard 24 cases last 4 frets scalopées

UTILIZATION

The handle is one of the best that exists with those of Vigiers and music man.
Take the sandpaper from 300 to enhance the sliding of the handle is comfortable enough

SOUNDS

The jem despite these high-powered microphones (400mV output) may be suitable for all styles
we need to do is to add the appropriate gear:
for its clear as the pickups are very powerful even in inter position you tend to have too much midrange and treble equalizer must therefore removing the max of medium and quite a sharp and add bass and play the fender or marshall engl.
for the saturation is not a problem it will fit any amps but I think it sounds better on Marshall Mesa to avoid even if c a great brand.

OVERALL OPINION

I wrote this opinion for the jem 7vwh fan, let me explain:
I have 12 years! which means that I have the FIRST MODEL OF THE JEM 7VWH
AND I IS SAYING THAT THIS MODEL HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE MODELS TEAM J CRAFT that I have become an ebony fingerboard on mine while on recent models is the key rosewood and thinner, which makes all the difference! I can affirm to have recently purchased a second JEM and the difference between the two is huge!
if you look closely VAI uses these scenes on old models (EVO, FLO, etc) ... with this famous ebony fingerboard makes the sound richer and more singing.
so I sold it without hesitation that the recent model from the mine is the m. ..
Too bad the old version is no longer marketed, ebony COST you it too expensive?
