Strings N Things in Memphis, TN (my local dealer, their web site is www.ybafool.com) has an E600, an E800, as well as the EM-2000 and G-1000. The E600 and 800 sounds more like a Sound Canvas to me, more so than the other two do. Someone once said that the G-1000 has the JV sound engine, but I don't know that to be a fact. maybe someone here does.

Anyway, the 600 and 800 are way overpriced at this store, they're listing the 600 at $1695 and the 800 at $1995. I thought that seemed a little high. They also have the EM-10 for $499, and I know you can get one of those anywhere on line for $200 or less. They give pretty substantial discounts, though, so you may be able to do better. Good Luck!
