JEM7V FLO?

[dafonk]

Just gonna throw in a question here. Im currently in Tokyo and went in to a music store and they had not only the Jem7V WH they also had a "FLO-model" with sustainer, extra volume knob and 2 switches for the sustainer.
Any of you guys seen such a JEM? i tried it and it played lovely as a Jem7V WH should play and the sustainer gave it certainly another demension.
I havent been able to see anything about this guitar anywhere. Could it just be the store that made their "own" FLO-model. Since i dont speak japanese and they dont speak english i couldnt ask them about it.
Thinking about buying it perhaps, its aobut USD2.100

So what you guys think? all input velcomed

Dee's right. I hear they are quite well done though. I would love to try one.

I think its called the Shibuya mod from Shibuya, coz they're the ones who supply stocks like that. There are even some 350EXs with that mod.

[projectjem]

are they front or rear routed?

[Dee]

Rear.

Sounds cool. Never seen one.(Except Steve's )

Actually, the "Shibuya" model is just an Ikebe gakki mod. Other places in Japan do it as well. I've also seen it referred to as a "Jem 7V Type Flo". The Ikebe-Gakki version also comes with the Buzz Feiten mod. They also had a RG2770 with that mod, but I'm just holding out until they do a RG8470 with the sustainer+feiten.

I believe u are at Ikebe Gakki
they are the only guys that do the sustainer mods (professionally)
but they are very professional and highly skilled, i wouldnt worry about it, if u open up the cavity, everything wiring is clean as hell..
they often few choice, 7v, 7v with sustainer and the Full-Mod which includes sustainer & buzz freiten tuning..all at only 280, 000yen...bargain

they also often the cheapy rg350 with sustainer mod..
but if you can afford the FLO. then get the FLO, you wouldnt regret it i bet

Yeah, its the Ikebe shibuya mod, they do it on J customs too.
