Supposed to be a Custom Shop Guitar. Go to the "Click Here For More Details link and try to find how many things make this seem to NOT be a Custom Shop Guitar! http://www10.addr.com/~spp/album/

Have at it!

The body is a dupe. It's not an Fender Custom Shop body. The finish on the tummy cut indicates that it's a laminated body.

Non-standard Fender Custom Shop Case.

Cute, but odd, neck plate.

I thought that if it was a "Jon" John Cruz Masterbuilt, it was signed by the builder on the headstock too.

Good start! Take a look at the innards now....

When did the custom shop start using Squier bodies? And when did they start subbing out the electronic assembly work to Stevie Wonder?

has anybody warned the bidders or contacted the buyer?

I emailed the seller twice. No reply. I sent emails to many of the high bidders, but the winning bidder obvioulsy used Esnipe. So He may be screwed. Paid $1821.01. I am sad for him :( angry at the seller :mad:
