FS/FT: JEM 77FP

[hippietim]

This is not a reissue. It is very minty. I'm asking $1800 or best reasonable offer. Paypal is fine for US folks. International folks will have to pay via Western Union or a money order that I can cash at a US Post Office (a lot of post offices will do this internationally). Shipping in the US will be a flat $30. International will of course be more.

In terms of trades, I don't have anything specific I'm looking for so let me know what you've got in the way of cool guitars, amps, or effects. One thing I would definitely love to have is an Ace Frehley Les Paul (not an Epiphone). I'd be glad to throw in some cash or other trade bait to compensate for the difference in value.

you also didn't speicify if it's cased, what year it is, etc.

Fair enough. Last time I played it (last week) the body was nearly perfect - there are the usual pick swirl type scuffs. Same with the headstock. The fingerboard is fantastic. Frets have tons of life. The bridge shows very minor wear. The back of the neck shows signs of having being played - meaning it is not bright white new maple. The neck plate has some wear. I will take a picture of that this evening.

Rich, you stated that it was a 90 in the thread I posted about the guitar when I first got it. I never got around to looking up the serial number. I will do that when I get home tonight.

It does come in it's case which is also in very good shape. It seems to be the original case - I'll take a picture of that as well so folks can confirm that.

Also, the electronics covers and truss rod cover still had their protective covering on them until a few weeks ago.

That's my old girl. She is in beautiful shape with a gorgeous pink lined case also in great shape. Still don't know why I let her go. You'd be hard pressed to find a mark on her, but the neckplate and trem are showing some signs of pimpling. Tim, you're killing me here... She's the only one I regret selling, but I am afraid if I bought her back she would never look at me the same way again

send the pics when you take them please.

Wow. I never noticed the fret dimple before. How'd you notice that? In any case, it hasn't affected the playability for me. It's not very deep at all. I tried to capture it in a picture - let me know if this doesn't show you what you need:

Here is a close up of the neck plate with heavy flash to show you the wear in all it's glorious detail:

Here are the case pictures - the weird circular smudges in the first picture are an artifact of my bad photography - there are no circular smudges on the case:

According to http://www.jemsite.com/faq.htm, my JEM is in fact a 1990 model based on the serial number.

Yes. But since you didn't ask any sort of personal questions or divulge any secrets, I figured it'd be better to post responses in the thread since it's stuff that others would most likely want to know.
