You only changed the pickups, knobs, and tip, to have it sit in a collection?

The guitar came out like this from the STORE like you see it.
The pickups are PAF Pro and JEM single and they are marked on the back.
It's a bit rare I must say myself.

There's no way in Hell it's original.

sfx70 · #5 10-16-2006, 02:26 PM

And NO I have not changed anything on it!

I can take pictures of the back of the pickups for the the people interested in buying it.
Thanks for your input.

The back of the pickups don't mean a thing except the replaced the pink with the same in black. Somebody swapped everything out for a black-out look. It's not original, it's not mint, not with everything changed like that.

They look like the tall dimarzio knobs. It doesnt take away from the guitar but cant be stock can it.

I will have to take pictures to all these parts individually to settle this.
Like I said, it came out of the store the way you see it.
Why would I change the pickups and the knobs on a BRAND NEW guitar???
For the interested buyers, I have perfect e.B.a.y feedback as well.

It wasn't brand new, you just think it was.

There is and never was anything but pink pickups and knobs on any oirignal Floral, ever.

Maybe someone in the store raped her...

I will check pickup electronics soldering and see if it's been altered or not. I will also take pictures. So if you're interested in BUYING it shoot me an email.

Thanks

You can't argue man. Maybe it was 2nd hand and they didnt tell you. did it come with a certificate or something.

Maybe it was a custom order by somebody else and the guy changed his mind?? I got it brand new from the store with the tags and all that. Long and McQuade in Canada doesn't sell used as new guitars.

The most likely scenario is that the store changed out the items on a new guitar (for whatever reason) and then you bought it. You have a very nice example, however it is not 100% original.

sfx70 · #15 10-16-2006, 03:25 PM

I just don't understand why they would do that... the pickups are DiMarzio PAF Pros and the middle is the JEM single. Just for the sake of the color??
