Your opinion on this Jem. It seems a little odd.

Question to you experts. Should i Buy it?
The neck isn't right....correct?
What would you pay?
Thank you!

Yup, the neck isn't original and neither are the control knobs, pickup selector switch or the middle pickup by the looks of things. Personally I wouldn't buy it, especially with that crack in the back of the neck. There are heaps of used FP's around, why get one that had been so modified?

Florals should have a green vine, btw

Good luck

Ok thank you!


I was wondering about that. I will offer him 100 and see if he will take it.
I could use the parts.

100 what? Camals? Assuming either £ or $ that would be a good price even without a neck. You could turn a good profit breaking it for parts.

This one is advertised here in the classifieds

http://www.jemsite.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=32828

and the price is $450.
I seriously doubt you can get it for less than $400 as if you part it up the parts will fetch that anyway.

I'm not an expert on the FP but theres summat about the body that I can't put my finger on.

I thought the FP's faded to black towards the outer edge, and I don't think I've seen that pink star design bit before thats present above the grip.
(no offence to seller, just that I personally haven't seen it)

However since its advertised on Jemsite the admin/mods here know a hell of a lot more.

Some fade more than others. Looks like this guy took his guitar outside in the bright sun, with the flash on his camera or something. Also the "star" is the inside of the flower, it's on mine as well...

Hi:

That's my guitar in the classifieds.

antokalaz1, if you read my ad, you will see that I clearly stated that the neck is a replacement from an RG and the fact that the guitar is far from stock and also it has been around., i.e.: "Players' condition Floral-Pattern Jem with RG wizard neck (dot inlays)"

Hence the (I hope) reasonable price.

The overexposed main pic (overall shot) was taken by the music store where I originally bought it.

The rest of the pictures I took with a very poor quality camera. I used a worklight to illuminate it.

The "star" is the inside of the flower. Thanks, geetarmonkey

cheers, all
