How many UV777GR owners in jemsite?

[RCB]

So glen, tell us, whats your take on this guitar?

Do you still own it?

[Flobanez]

I wish I owned a UV777GR. It would be nice to have the maple fretboard too. If I acquired one, i'd have to get the MC next. Too expensive though.

Finally got my hands on one thanks to Superuser. I am sooo pleased with it. Definitely my favorite of all the Jem/UV lines. The neck and fingerboard is to die for.

[chromeboy]

I've got one....

there's one on the 'bay as we speak...

There's two.

There was one partially parted out on **** a few weeks back. I saw the neck for sale within the last 1-2 months or so and the pickups from the same seller just recently closed.

jeez... how come I didn't answer this thread when it was still fresh....
yes I have one! what's the count now? :P actually, my GR *was* Glen's guitar... at one point
... its far from "mint" by now; still my main guitar until a 2027, UV7BK or a 1077xl comes this way.
the person I got the GR came from Las Vegas... who knows how he got it and whose hands it was passed on before it came to me!

pic\ from when I upgraded the pickups back around Fall 2001:


more recent pic around summertime:


and for those in doubt:


ps... if there's an official UV777GR registry somewhere thats always updated... I want to be in the loop! hunting down all 300+ of 'em shouldn't be that hard compared to finding all the VWH's sold since 93

Does anyone know if the extra large linked photo was taken in Nikki's studio? FYI, I saved it and later uploaded it to my website for safekeeping, but I couldn't remember where I originally saw it. Hopefully someone does.

Ive had two different ones over the years, no idea where they are now. Cool guitar though!

There is one hanging on the wall for sale at GTR in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire.
It has a couple of small dinks on the body and the pick ups are fully green instead of green/yellow. A bit of a steep price though.
Theres also a Jem20th hanging there.

Nothing special going on on the neck......except for the signature which I have no picture of....yet.

Thanks! I absolutley love this guitar.....gawdy paint job and all.
It's risen to my #1 as I play it all the time now. Stays in tune incredibly well, if I keep the trem arm off of it. Occasional dives are OK but trem abuse will put it out a bit (as it will on most double locking axes).

The maple board is a joy and the Blaze pups just rock in this axe. Cranked through my VHT, straight in/no pedals, I can get some really convincing "brown sound" out of it. Not too overdriven, but really "grindy"....for lack of a better term. Harmonics jump...VH1 On Fire anyone?..plus the low B for the intro chords.

When I play the 3-4 minute intro to A Change Of Seasons.....life is good!
