I hear you, dude, but I think it was more like Stu Jackson who made the decision in this case.

I have two.

Best fucking solid body electrics I've ever owned. Hands down. Ernie Ball is easily the most underappreciated guitar company out there.

I quickly realized how shitty all the Ibanez's I owned were and promptly sold them all. The difference was just that severe for me. :o

Don't get me wrong, Ibanez's are certainly good instruments and for some people, the best way to go, but after playing EBMM's for a while it feels like a substantial step down. Although I still own one Ibanez, a JPM1.

Build-wise, the only other electric I have that's even close is my PRS Archtop and in all honesty, I think my JP7's are better built instruments.

The only time I'd ever tell someone not to buy a JP7 is if they were a super heavy trem user. In that case you will want a double-locker. While the non-locking with locking tuners DOES stay in tune very well, if you are doing string-slacking divebombs and whatnot, it will go out of tune eventually, it's inevitable. But I can just about play our entire set and use the trem fairly aggressively in a few songs without any tuning issues whatsoever.

The piezo sounds fantastic. It smokes the piezo in my PRS in a bad, bad way. Granted, I don't ever use it (don't even have a battery in it, I put that in my wah ), it does sound amazing.

As you can tell, I have nothing but praise for the guitars and the organization. Sterling Ball is an amazing man that treats his customers like royalty.

If you are interested in one give Pete Dubaldo a shout at Dubaldo Music (www.dubaldomusic.com), tell him Jeff sent ya.

It sounds nice, Jeff. And it seems like you and I have similar taste in guitar, my friend.

For one, I never really liked Ibanez, even though I too own a JPM 2. I am also a proud owner of a 1994 PRS Custom, as well as a Washburn N2! Believe it or not, my N2 and the JPM2 are both the early releases and they sound GREAT! Seriously, I got all the guitars I ever need, but I so want to buy me a JP EEMM w/ Piezo... it will be my next purchase when I have the money.

Let's get back on topic... The Suns will kick your Spurs' ass tonight!

[heavyjeffd]

Tonight should be an interesting game for sure.

I don't think Horry has had much effect this series yet so my inclination is to think the Suns will feel it the most missing Stoudemire.

I expect to see Nash shooting a lot from outside.

[Azyiu]

I am expecting one of those ridiculous 42 pts 16 assists game from Nash tonight... I think tonight is a good time for him to show just how wrong everyone is, for not giving him a 1st place MVP vote.

[heavyjeffd]

Yeah, I think you are right. Also I expect a lot of PF's, BS and drama from both teams.

Bowen will most likely be doing his best to piss off Nash all night, which could be a problem with no Stoudemire big up the middle.

I was listening to the NBA channel on Sirius earlier, whoever the host was (I have no idea) called the Suns a "bunch of crybabies that need to shut up and earn their millions".

I couldn't help lol'ing.

Tell him to get on the court and earn his $50!!!!! There are too many talking heads out there these days. That said, I have seen bigger babies than the Suns. If you ask me, I think the Suns are one of the least whinny teams out there!

[GH0STrider]

at least the bulls are making it a series. 2 more to go!

btw- what is with that bald spot on rasheed "all I know how to do is bitch" wallace's head?

Yeah I hear ya.

To be honest, the Suns have been uncharecteristically complainy.

I think primarily what he was talking about was Stoudemire making a scene out of something instead of going to the NBA (like Nash did).

Holy fuck! What a game!

It went from "aw shit" to "c'mon boys rally up!" to "OMG I CAN'T LOOK!"!

I know none of you are pulling for the Spurs, but man, what a game!

[GH0STrider]

You can thank david stern. They would have never won that game with STAT in there
