I know absolutely nothing about Fusions, outside of the shorter scale length. Is it a worthwhile guitar? What's the value of it?
I am a sucker for binding, and the MOP and ebony are real nice too.
Damn, I was so hoping it was the Soloist PRO! Always wanted one!
Oh, and Twich, the reason the first pic's URL doesn't match up is because I uploaded it to my imageshack account.

the quality of the guitar is high as it is from the PRO series (if it is a Fusion Pro)
Its a short scale Dinky with HSS layout, JT-590(Jackson labelled schaller) and i believe a Basswood body, so it should be very light
If you are trading that guitar with the loose truss-rod, then it would be a good deal, im not really sure on the value as the market is different here in Aust
If it is not beat to shit and the price is good then yeah its a desireable item
No, it's an ESP replica guitar (a reproduction of the KH-20, neck through body construction, EMG active pickups, Schaller type Floyd...)
A very nice guitar, built phenomenally well, but I don't have an actual cash value for it since it's not a *REAL* ESP guitar.
I got more pics just now, but again...things don't seem to be matching up....
I'm not sure what I should do...

OK. Here goes:
The Floyd is all dismantled like rjohnstone said in the first pic.
Then there's a close-up of the Floyd, and it's all together, but missing the string locks, and it's not a Jackson Floyd and the pickup in that pic says EMG???
Nothing looks weird with the neck and headstock pic though...
Man those are sucky pics. I suppose you could get another JT-590 to put in there...I had a Fusion PRO several years ago but it was in excellent shape...sold it for 7 bills...to a dude in southern Europe. I think these are closer to 450 - 500 now, and that one, well subtract 100 - 150 I guess. Ugly color IMO.
I agree that his picture skills are horrible, Ron! I asked for better, clearer pics and these ARE them!!!
I also don't know if I want to trade if I am going to have to spend more money that I don't have to get this guitar back up to par.
I'd love to have a PRO model, but I think my ESP copy is worth more than this one....
Dunno...

I called him out on the pic of the Floyd not being the same guitar.
He said that he swapped out "the pieces that hold on the strings" from his KH-502
And that it will all be put back to original when we meet except for the bridge pickup (the original pickup is included though.)
Yeah, at this point, I think Id pass. If back to original means all reassembled and strung up and ready to go, then MAYBE, but if it means a box project, then Id pass.
