Actually, the guy sent me some pics of the inside of the cavities. Hate to say, it, but it could be real...

I hate to say it, but that's a funky guitar. It's cheap too, i might consider it

You don't know what the reserve is though. What would scare me about getting it is you don't know who built the body. Is it routed straight? Why is their no pics of the backside? It's just too if-y to me.

Fender868 · #**1989** 11-17-2007, 07:27 AM

I would ask for more pics before buying that thing for sure. But that said, i'd be willing to go 250 - 300 just because of the novelty. Whats cool is it really lights up a lot and has different colored leds. I always wanted the Jem 20th, but damn it's way overpriced for me.

Ibanez banjo -- Did you know

"Ibanez is a French company out of Paris France, Purched second hand by me in California 10 years ago."

Wish I had known that before I "purched" mine for $350 -- BTW it is as good as my Gibson for sound and playability, and the inlay work looks even better than the Gibson.

Some one should save all these links and create "The Jemsite 3bay embarresment series"

twooos · #**1992** 11-19-2007, 02:42 PM

Just sent him this

"This is only worth about 350 dollars, and giving false info "ibanez is a french company" is against the rules. Ibanez is Japanese.

Save some time and get rid of this auction, your not going to get a sale

"

We should all chip in and buy the French Ibanez banjoman's scuplture --

This was sold on **** 2 weeks ago for $1749 buy it now. After seeing what someone pay for it and reselling at such a high price makes me wanna beat the crap out of them just on principle.

Why? Buying low and selling high is how people have made money since . . . well, since there was money to be made.

I'd do it. That's easy. Now, a harder question is this:

Imagine you are at a yard sale host hosted by some toothless old woman in front of a small house with peeling paint and a rain gutter hanging off the roof from one end. She has an old guitar for sale, a cherry burst Gibson Les Paul that belonged to her husband who passed in 1959. She kept it all these years in the attic, but has to sell it now or she'll lose the house. She has no idea what it's worth, she just hopes she can earn enough from the yard sale to cover her next mortgage payment.

What do you do?
