I called around today and nobody here stocks the pacifica at all (vancouver) so I definitely won't be able to check one out in person beforehand unfortunately.
I will have top order from the u.s which is okay as I live close to a border crossing. The J model will come out to about $255 and the V $375 after conversion etc. So it's about $120 more for the V. What do you guys think?
Also are there any online guitar store that inspect/setup the guitar before shipping them out? Id like to avoid getting a "bad one" if possible since it'll be a hassle getting an exchange.
