Is this legitimate?


7375926269 <- On that auction site.


Ive been looking for a JEM777RF for a while now, and Im not sure If I wanna hit the gas just yet.

Tell me what you think, and if $1000 is a fair price. It must be really far away because the shipping is $3500.

I love how he even went to the trouble of putting a Jem logo on the very funky mis-shappen headstock.
The back of the neck being painted also helps..lol

Looks like a 550 that someone put a wilkinson in, but with a painted neck...

Love the Gibson shaped "Paiwei" truss rod cover...


Overall weird

You just don't see axes of that quality everyday do you.






Fortunately.

Its not even a RG550, the 12 and 24th frets are all wrong, spaced way too wide. The body looks rather RGish, but Its wrong, the tremolo. . .what the hell is that?

There were plenty of RG copies back in the day, its probably one of those, with a re-labeled headstock.
