JS 1000 or JEM 77FP

[freaky-styley]

ok, i have to choose between keeping my JS 1000 or selling it and (with a bit of added money) getting a floral JEM! im kinda in two minds about it and would like some input from you people, also how much would i get for a mint conditioned JS1000 black?
This is just questioning wether i want to or not yet so i wont be doing anything rash!
Cheers Dave

I would get the Floral, but maybe I'm just partial. I have two and I love them. I don't think the JS compares as far as looks or as far as the real reason we get high end guitars - PLAYABILITY!!!

IMHO all you JS fans

two different things altogether...


Depends on how much you love youre JS... and how bad you need those 2 frets and single coil...


me, id go for the floral every time... specially an old one with an Edge...

i already have a 7v but i do prefer it and find it a lot easier (for me) to play, my js has a great neck (probably one of the best ive played) but cannot compare visually, this is were im stuck at! i am a little upset at having to sell it to get it but the only other option ive got is too sell other guitars that mean a lot more too me which im not entirly happy with, i also wonder which one sounds better have any of you got both of them that you could give me a good sound comparison? if you have id be greatfull to know, i think the 7v may sound a little different to the fp?
