Thats definetly a fake. I find it odd that they took the time to make a scalloped upper neck (last few frets) but skimped on getting minor details such as the knobs and backplates right.

I figure the neck is real off ebay or something, and put onto a POS. It even looks like a Floyd rose not an Edge Pro.


I emailed this prick and he told me it was "real but thanks for the heads up" because paid $1000 from some guy in the states. I simply told him he got ripped off. And I posted another ad beside it to warn people about fake JEMs on this site biggrin.gif

Could be.. I assumed the neck was a fake too since i thought there were some oddities about the headstock, especially the logo.
