Hi, I was just looking on eBay for a JM Strat and this showed up. I was just wondering if it was real because it is half the

price.http://cgi.ebay.com/Fender-John-Mayer-s ... 500wt_1182

I am going to say no... I'll tell you why. If I had a JM Strat the last thing I would do is "upgrade" the pickups, that's just dumb. Seller doesn't mention that he changed the pickguard. He also removed two springs from the tremolo cavity? why?

I think it is a $1100 JM neck only, yeah neck seems alright. i wouldn't pay more than $500 for that guitar.

That's what I was thinking, I love the sound of the Big Dippers, and it just seemed awkward. Thanks for confirming this, guess I gotta get 2 grand together then :D

why not try asking the seller to see what kind of response he gives you... just play around with him.

I was also looking at another one (JM)

Poor guy payed $1000 for a mexican guitar, now he wants YOU to have it.
