Dodgy copy on ebay

[MusicManJP6]

I saw that one too - the body shape is hideous! It's not only a copy, but a HORRIBLE copy at that. And since when does the JP have a lock nut instead of locking tuners?

Hmmm.... Looks like the Chinese are to blame for this cheap imitation... Better not get it for your kids...

I asked the seller for pics coz I want to see what the headstock text says.

WOW!! You are correct!! This must be what BP has had up his sleeve the whole time!!!

2008 LE -----> the JP 2.0 !!!! New mods, new body shape. Probably louder too!!!

I bet the JP 2.0 has Kill zone mode and 'world domination mode ' switch on it,

I sent the guy some really lame questions. He answered them, but didn't post them unfortunately. It would have been funny.

Yep, he just sent me this message:

What's up! My Ebay listing was removed because of a trademark violation. Can you believe it? If your still interested in my Petrucci copy, we can work something out if it's O.K. with you. Best regards, Anthony

That's too bad...

 

[73h Nils]

LOL! All's well that ends well!

I'm trying to figure out what the third knob does.

I'm trying to figure out what the third knob does.

It's the face melt knob of course... totally aids in JP's world domination scheme. lol

If the wiring is this complicated, perhaps it's got tone for each pickup like a strat? Or, volume for each pickup like a LP?
