Ha I looked at this and thought "the picture has a roland GK-2A synth unit on it, where have I seen that before...." I reallised the double picture is actually taken from Steve Vai's website gallery, see http://www.vai.com/Machines/guitarpages/guitar115.html
I think the vendor was just using the picture as a place holder until he took pictures of his own, at least that's what I hope.
He's put new ones on now and the other pictures are of the item for sale I presume, the colours have faded a bit as you might expect, but otherwise it seems in good nick.

The body for the red one is waaaay off. The neck isn't even centered in the body and the shape of the body is very bad.

So e bay won't do anything if you tell them these are fakes? They should remove them immediately.

Is he upto something?

Mail bomb, I'm guessing.

That one looks legit, but I thought that all recent Ibanez MIJs had a Letter, 2 year numbers, and a 5-digit serial... I have an RG570 with serial #f99-59891... Wold the lack of a 5th number be due to the fact that not as many JEMs are made as RGs?
