"BUY THIS GUITAR I SWEAR IT IS AMAZING"

Feature:
The edge pro tremolo and locking nuts lets you divebomb and pick up note pitches like crazy...and when u lock the nuts the guitar stays in tune forever no matter how much u use ure tremolo bar.....the gold hardware is sexy...and the monkey grip i didnt like at first but it will grow on u trust me its so nice

Quality:
you will get a factory stamp it goes throught 6 places each inspects the guitar...it is very well built and very stable.....this has the strength of a stratocaster and the tone/sustain as a Les Paul.

Value:
Very good value it is worth every penny I cant stress how nice this guitar is

Desirability:
I HAVE IT the gold finish is absolutley beautifl and gold screws with the all white humbucker with gold magnets...wait till you see this guitar up close its even more beautiful than the picture...this pickguard is amazing too

Sound:
Evolution pick-ups...sustain for as long as u can take it and has a unique power sound. Harmonics are out of this world and its pickups are very sensitive and you can add your own sound basically to the guitar..SOUND IS AMAZING!

Ease of Use:
The neck action on this guitar is amazing the neck is a 5 peace maple prestige JEM....its so smooth and skinny and you can get such good neck string action ( strings real close to the neck ) without the choking tone and your fingers can fly up and down the neck with no problem I NEVER THOUGHT I COULD PLAY THIS FAST! this guitar just shreds

Support:
I need no support with this guitar it is just incredable

Overall:
I have a Gibson Les Paul Supreme...Gibson SG Special...Fender Strat...and a Gibson Les Paul Studio.... THE IBANEZ JEM7V HAS BETTER NECK ACTION,SUSTAIN,AND SOUND/PLAYABILITY THAN ANY OF MY OTHER GUITARS

About This Product!
Description

From Our Catalog
Few would debate Steve's tremendous influence on Ibanez guitars. Innovations from the guitars created by Steve and Ibanez designers can be found in so many of their instruments, from pro through entry level. Then there's Steve Vai's Universe, the guitar that ignited the 7-string revolution in rock.

When Steve Vai guitars, with their lightening Edge tremolos, lightning fast 2-octave necks, and beautifully sculpted bodies came out in 1987, they were cutting edge. In 2001, they're still cutting edge. And that's the mark of a true classic.

Features
Contoured Alder body with 24-fret JEM neck provides easy access to all registers. Alder is best known as the body wood for the "classic single-coil, bolt-on neck guitar," Alder produces clear full bodied vintage tone that works well for lead or rhythm work.

Deep routed tremolo cavities allow pitches to be raised or lowered

Vai, choice of DiMarzio pickups combined with Ibanez Split-5 wiring provide incredible tonal versatility. Humbuckers: Ceramic magnet humbucker calibrated to the Evolution DP159. Fat, punch, and loud. Designed by Steve Vai. Single coil: JEM custom exclusive. Alnico magnet pickup calibrated for perfect balance with Breed humbuckers. Classic single-coil tone.

6105 frets are a high but thin fret with perfect intonation, good control, and easy playability and "no choking" string bending
