Members reverberlayed Posted February 15, 2012 Members Share Posted February 15, 2012 Sam Ash seemingly just launched a used section online. Is it safe to assume this is a Classic Player or they are just stupid? Or both? http://used.samashmusic.com/item.php?id=2594 I'm on my phone and can't see the pics too well. And I'm not a JM afficianatio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members who235 Posted February 15, 2012 Members Share Posted February 15, 2012 Yeah, that's definitely a CP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members reverberlayed Posted February 15, 2012 Author Members Share Posted February 15, 2012 Its listed as Made in Mexico. It's also listed as '62 reissue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members who235 Posted February 15, 2012 Members Share Posted February 15, 2012 Look at the position of the tremolo unit and look at the bridge. It's definitely a CP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil O'Keefe Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Even on a 23" monitor, it's hard to see the vibrato plate location, but the "Made In Mexico" bit is the dead give-away.... no '62 RI is made down there - only the Classic Players. It's not an AVRI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not an AVRI. If you click on the pic to zoom in, it's plain as day. I think OP was saying that the MIM part was suspect since they were also calling it a '62 RI. Either way, like you, I'm pretty confident the '62 RI part is the part they got wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, like you, I'm pretty confident the '62 RI part is the part they got wrong. I was pretty sure the '62 RI part was the wrong part. I mean, it says MIM somewhere on the guitar I'm sure. My point was that obviously it can't be both MIM and a '62 RI but could almost as easily be listed incorrectly MIM or '62 because they clearly missed the distinction between them.

Members thefool Posted February 15, 2012 Members Share Posted February 15, 2012 awesome coranado up for sale http://used.samashmusic.com/item.php?id=3657 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members brianeharmonjr Posted February 15, 2012 Members Share Posted February 15, 2012 Definitely a CP. The second picture of the back shows text on the back of the headstock, which would only be on a Classic Player. A '62 AVRI would have the serial number on the neck plate and no text on the back of the headstock and a Japanese-made JM would have text on the back of the neck near the body.

Members solewheelin Posted February 15, 2012 Members Share Posted February 15, 2012 Wow, theres a DEM there for $90. Everything else seems overpriced. The pedals are listed in the amp section. They need to do something about that.But yeah! Cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members etl423 Posted February 15, 2012 Members Share Posted February 15, 2012 Yeah, overpriced for the most part, but at least now I don't have to actually go to Sam Ash unless they have something I'm interested in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
