HELP! Tips on a 2008 Ibanez Jem guitar.

[Kuga]

Hello all.

My old Brother find a 2008 Ibanez Jem. Price it's to good to be true but you never knows. He ask me what I think about It. He already reserve It!!
I think it's a fake one but It looks really good. I think tuners need to be Gotoh. This one are Ibanez tuners. Also I think original ones headstock it's 5 pieces. This one it's 3 pieces.
Tomorrow I'll got more pics.

Please tell me what you think.
Thanks.



This is an original headstock.

Jem necks have been multi piece with different woods or straight up maple. There are variations depending on year.

Is there a return policy?

* after another look that trem doesn't look right. Avoid.

That looks legit to me. Jem necks have been multi piece with different woods or straight up maple. There are variations depending on year.

Is there a return policy?

No return policy. It's a private sale. I'm afraid. My Brother don't know about guitars. He play guitar too but nothing else. Even he don't know replace strings. It's supose a Prestige model. That should have a rigid suitcase and documentation. Tomorrow we will have more pics but I have told him that I think it is fake. At least he didn't pay It. He is crazy! Already he bought a fake Alhambra guitar!

If your gut says no then listen to your gut.

I always regret when I don't listen to mine.

I hate these faker dirtbaggs. They're getting better at it. Nothing but lying thieves.

So that is the best advice I can give - if it doesn't feel right don't do it.
