Ibanez Ep9 vs. Ep7

[GrantaJem]

Hello members and visitors alike; Just wondering I could not find posts concerning the ep9, so how does the ep9 sound in comparison to ep7? Which sounds better, build quality and so forth! I can't find an ep9 in any of the local stores to compare it to. I would like to know before I purchased online. Thanks for your help!

Not to sound condescending, but as much as these guitars cost, you might as well get a Taylor. the euphorias are Korean and although they looking phenomenal, they aren't worth the money spent.

Im with nordhauser, a guy I taught with has an EP7 and it sounded like it was made of wet cardboard. There are probably 15 other acoustics I would rather buy in the EP price range before Id buy either of those.
