$675 sounds good as long as it's in good shape.

Specs: http://www.jemsite.com/axes/htm_features/spec.htm

in the spec sheet it says the neck is thicker how much of a difference does that extra thickness make?

[SalemB]

It's a little more D formed compared to the later models like the VWH. It's still the preferred neck of many JEM players.
Don't let yourself believe that this is a baseball bat. We'll leave that production to Fender. All Ibanez JEMs have ultra fast necks.

Like SalemB said, the 777 neck is NOT like a baseball-bat. It's thin, and smoooth

I love it!

PS.
I have a JEM777SK

The neck on my DY is thicker than all my other Jems. But, it's definitely not a baseball bat. The DBK and DNA's are noticeably thinner, like the VDY and VSK. A lot of Jemsiters prefer that original neck, I prefer the 7VWH. --rvj

The DBK, DNA, VDY, and VSK, and I think VBK are all wizard style necks, not Jem profile. *The DY, SK, and LNG all share the same profile and are the only ones with that profile. *They are nice, way flatter than a fender, thicker than a FP or VWH, but still feel great

It's the PBK not the VBK that has the Wizard style neck, the VBK comes with the thicker JEM neck
