The JEM7 features an Alder body bolted to a maple neck with a 24-fret rosewood fretboard with blue vine inlays.

Pickups/Hardware: Dimarzio Evolution pickups, Gotoh tuning keys, Master volume/master tone/5-way blade pickup selector, Lo Pro Edge locking tremolo system, 3-ply white pickguard.
Cosmetics: This guitar is great shape. It has a tiny finish crack near the bridge. There is a chip in the finish on the back of the body on the hand grip. The back of the neck is clean, and the frets show the slightest bit of wear. There are some light surface scratches on the bottom edge of the body and the finish has started wear a bit. Overall, this guitar plays very well and sounds fantastic.
Playability: Our in-house guitar tech has inspected, setup, and restrung this instrument with a new set of strings. The neck is straight, the truss rod is fully functional, and the action has been setup low and comfortable.
