Do you like the new 2007 black JEM?


It was this comment from ken_r152 (in the "Do you like the JEM 20th?" poll) that gave me the idea post this poll here. I am interested to see the results.

I think the real question is, do we all like the new 2007 black Jem? This is a more likely guitar that we would buy and play.

I like it, but that neck should be on the BRMR.

Bringing back the vine was a good move. I'd prefer an Ebony fretboard. And Evolutions.

I'm with elcid.

I never liked any of those mentioned above, nor the DBK, and this black JEM doesn't excite me much. It does look quite sleek, plus it has some decent modding potential, though.

Re: Do you like the new 2007 black JEM?


Like I said in the 'complain about Jems to Steve' thread, I was all geared up to buy a brand new Jem but when I saw this and the 20th, I booked a holiday with my cash a few days later instead. That's how much I like the two new Jems

Re: Do you like the new 2007 black JEM?


I didnt like!

There is nothing special with this jem, imo. Typical sample of "new" boring black ibanez's, imho.

I like it but I still like the bling of my VHW just a little better.

Not everyone hates them, obviously. People generally just want more variation and choice. Has there ever been anything wrong with those two things?

Re: Do you like the new 2007 black JEM?


On one hand, I wouldn't kick it out of bed for eating crackers, but on the other hand, there's nothing about it that screams, "OMFG, I've gotta get this NOW!!!" like the RG-8 or some of the Artcores. It's handsome, pretty much unoffensive in design, but not terribly remarkable, either.

Re: Do you like the new 2007 black JEM?


I like its simplicity.

I personally believe it fills a gap in the jem line.
My only concern is the pickups. I'm use to Evo's and Paf Pros, so I don't know what these sound like. But I'm sure they sound good.
