I don't think this was even a korean made Ibanez. Without listing all the things wrong with this (as many of you could probably figure out already), this actually looks like one of those Jem knock offs being sold out of China as the things wrong with it match up exactly.

My guess is that someone actually bought one of these and realized that even an Ibanez GIO was better quality and decided to sell it hoping someone will buy it. (I seriously hope it's not someone from here that's sellin git).

And it looks poorly crafted and very cheap.

a lousy fake

I wonder if anybody here has ever bought one of these. I'd like to know how cheap these really are.

Actually for a lousy bid, that's pretty cool as long as it wasn't that much I guess. Let us know really how it is and how it sounds and plays, maybe some pics.

Hahaha LoL even my guitar tech too laugh at me ... but I said I've got it very cheap so that shut him up a bit.... The trem sucks!!! it can't hold the damn string.... But the paintwork and neck is alright ..... The sound is crap..... and the last four or five fret sound the same freaking note.... everything else is alright...my tech says he's able to undone the ****... the only thing is get the pups change and the freaking lousy trem.... will try to sneak the digi cam from my office to snap the jem copy

In the words of Bon Jovi, " You give Jem's a bad name" or something to that effect.

^^^I've never wanted it at the first place but it's good to have a copy and the original too

That thing sold for $710.00......unbelievable. (different item # though) For another $75-100 he/she could have bought a 7DBK and got a real guitar.

I can't complain however...when I sold my white 555 back in 2000 for $800 the only thing I could think of is the buyer thought he was getting a 7VWH. Some people see a white Jem for sale under $900 and will line up to throw their money at it.

Initially, I had won that guitar at the last second without noticing the guitar's faults. I asked the seller a list of questions about the obviously fake axe and retracted the bid (since my account would not allow me to talk to him ahead of time). Haha after comparing it to a pic of a JEM, I felt like an idiot! It's so blatently flawed. Live and learn. I want to thank you again, Rich.

I feel bad for the person who actually won the relisted auction.
