JJP priced themselves to the very top end, and not by design, but by having no choice. WOZ now has to compete with the LE Stern model.

But originally, their product was supposed to take on Sterns Pro model. Somewhere along the way, JJP realised they couldnt build this super dooper machine with all their trimmings to beat Stern at their own game. Luckily for JJP, they had the LE to compete with which hid their initial failure to beat Stern at the Pro model level. Jacks original design brief wasnt to build a 10 grand machine, it just ended up that way. Hence the price increases etc for the 2nd model, and the fact that u pay heavily for the same models if u dont pre-order.

I still want to see a JJP Pro model, that is better than a Stern Pro model, with better everything, at a better price. That was the originall JJP plan, but along the way, something went very skew wiff.
