You're being a lot more generous to the seller than I'd be right about now. You're probably a better person than me, too.

excuse my ignorance, but what means L.E.?

I would take a guess at Limited Edition.

If you hit the Puyallup area, let me know. I will buy you a beer. :) I checked with eBay and if I had not done the case and waited for him to confirm he was issuing a full refund, they could not have promised a refund and I would be out a guitar and the cash.

The seller did agree to refund my money in the case, so it should be all good. Just need to ship it back with tracking and signature confirmation and wait for it to get to him.

Thanks again!
No problem, glad to be of help.

I'm not likely to be round your way anytime soon, i'm in London - it's a bit far to pop over for a brew, but thanks for the offer.

I was all set to pitch up, say you were best off without it, since I've played one, and they're cack basswood with gold hardware.

But then Pat pitches up and says how much he likes his, and I really like Pat...

you know, i have owned 5 of these cij/mij jags and I am sure Pat has had like 10 at least, I have never paid more than $650 for a cij anything, even jazzmasters.
I think $900 is a normal price but then again, i don't care if the guitar shows up with dents, in fact, I hope it does because that way when i play shows with it I won't get all upset if it gets beer on it or if i drop it or if i smash it into a wall on accident.
this is neither here nor there, there are literally 8 billion different types of guitar dudes, to me the guitar is just a tool, the amp is what matters the most overall.

I find this to be true with my stuff. A great amp makes a big difference in sound just like good speakers.

People who said I should keep it, I wanted to let you know it is relisted. Better pictures this time. Shows most of the problems. Don't forget the back of the neck has dents all down the back of it.

If you thought it was a good deal, grab it. BIN $825. :)

Ohh looks like the original case. I wonder if this has huge chunks missing too. Only one picture. Doubt I would pay a grand for a guitar that only has one pixely picture to show condition.
