Hey! Those MIJ LE twins by the pine tree up there were mine!

That was one of my eBay pics. I think Tom has that pic on his site as well.

A guy in Japan (of all places) bought them as a set for $1899.

And since the blonde JM/strat/jag really qualifies for "triplets", I'll show you this one - these are NOT mine, but the foam XII and VI are still together as far as I know

It is quite stunning. I believe that is the most beautiful JM I've seen. Not just the lovely blonde finish, but the overall condition of those parts!
