Pounds.

So if I'm converting this right the new JEM will be about 1664.42 USD? That is higher than I was expecting to be honest. I think 1600 is pushing it a bit for an Indonesian guitar. I won't deny its specs being amazing, but I'm just upset for having to pay for amazing specs.

I thought all the JEMs were made in Japan?

Zonk Knuckle · 01-13-2012, 01:41 PM

nah, there's a new "premium" jem.

Swyse · 01-13-2012, 01:43 PM

I didn't think that those prices might be MSRP, in which case it would be about ~1250 at a store. If it is MSRP, I think it still has a logical place in the market if it is 1600 I'm going to keep complaining.

L1ght · 01-13-2012, 02:12 PM

I think those are MSRP tbh because now that I look at the conversion, $916 would be more appropriate for that premium, rather then $750. And don't you think that $1600 would be more appropriate for a JEM? Come on now.. lets not delude ourselves. Life isn't THAT good.

Swyse · 01-13-2012, 02:14 PM

If they are msrp the premium hard tail would be around $675 street right? since street is usually 75% of msrp?

L1ght · 01-13-2012, 02:56 PM

If it is.. praise the lords. If not.. .... it all to hell.

Doesn't look that colourful to me... still cool though.

Adam Of Angels · 01-13-2012, 05:09 PM

The Premium Jem is great, and I'll buy one, assuming it runs between a grand and $1200, but beyond that, I don't know.. I'd have to play one first. All of the Premiums I've played were great guitars, and it being Seafoam Green makes it that much cooler. I'm especially glad to see a good trem on it. What pickups does it have again?

The JS isn't an S series body. It's a Radius series body.

Anyways, I'm seriously considering on getting the RG2228A. I also love the black Premium S. Yeah, you read that right.

Adam Of Angels · 01-13-2012, 05:47 PM

The black Premium S is awesome. I hope to be able to play one

I like EMGs, too, so I wouldn't have to switch out the pups.

Neil · 01-14-2012, 12:58 PM

Is it just me or is the RG1527 not in the Ibby catalogue?

Seems to have been replaced with the RG2627ZEBK with EMG707s

I'm not one to complain about EMG routes, but it seems a bit lame there isnt a standard prestige RG7 with passives now.

Also they have added the horn scoops to the top side of the RGA7 and RGA8s (which IMO doesnt look as good).

RoccoJ20 · 01-14-2012, 01:28 PM

Saving my pennies for the new Jem and 8 premiums. So friggin nice. Complain all you want about it being black, a simple refin can make a world of difference. Swirling the *? .... yeah!!!

^ In all honesty, that's one of the cooler Prestiges released in a while. SSH, solid black, bound fretboard. I approve

Rojne · 01-14-2012, 07:00 PM

Musos Corner, Not sure whether its still there. I haven't been in there for about 6 months.

Osiris · 01-14-2012, 07:53 PM

So...everything posted so far is only from the EU catalog? Meaning the US can still get a 27" fixed bridge RGA with ebony and pink maple?
