Re: Got my new Jem 77vbk,,,


Hmm.....I guess I never analyzed them that closely, and switching from one to the other, they feel so close that it is effortless. I'll have to look into that,,,,but my 7Vwh is a 2005 model and the 77Vbk is a 2007, ,,,,,maybe that factors into this a bit??

There is no change in string spacing, they're all Floyd spaced. And the necks are vastly wider, 2mm at the heel is not "ever so slight". 2005 was the change, so 2005 to present are all the same.

Thanks.....that's why they feel identical to me. I'm happy with that, too, cuz switching between them,,,,,,,they feel exactly the same, and it makes it so easy.

If you think 2mm is vastly wider, I feel bad for your wife.

It was vastly wider to everyone that was complaining about how wide the necks got in 2005.....

They went too far, 1mm would have been plenty.
