But this guitar isn't all that great. Mine was in good shape with small cracks forming in similar locations to vai's evo. I tried to love it, got it setup perfect but it's just not an amazing guitar. :( I've got a stock Ibanez RG770 reissue that just sounds better, even with 'stock' ibanez pickups. Main difference between the guitars is that the RG has pickups mounted in the body which seems to give it more low end. I ended up trading it from a Candian Luthier build 7-string and couldn't be happier. Sometimes meeting your hero's isn't a good thing. Great guitar for $1500 and under used. For 4k you can get much much much more than this. Sorry Steve! I still love you.

The JEM 7V is a great guitar. I would NEVER pay $4200 plus tax for one though. I own a 2008 model that I bought used (near mint condition) for $1,350. Try one out, they're great. Love the unique style of the guitar, it's gold hardware, trem, bridge pickup kicks butt!

Bought a used 2012 but after having the guitar setup at the store and playing I realized something was off. After some research online I found out what it was. Apparently the 2011,2012, and early 2013s have a issue with overtones on the low E past 1/2 scale. When playing the 17th fret and above on the low E it sounded so bad. You could hear the overtones pulsating. I checked the intonation and everything was spot on. From what is known the issue is in the body. There were people who have tried swapping terms and trying to fix it that way but nothing worked. Other than that the guitar played and felt beautiful. Chords sounded wonderful and the action and feel of that guitar was amazing. However I was on the hunt for my dream guitar and after having this experience I decided to drop the Jem and order a J Custom.

The Jem 7V is the best guitar I have ever played. When I bought this a little over a year ago. I was hoping for something better but this thing blows my expectations. It is the most awesome guitar from the super fast neck to the hot pickups this guitar plays like a dream. If you want to spoil yourself, buy this baby. She is beautiful and her tone totally rocks. Ibanez did this guitar right!

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
