That's what I said. It looks like a regular 4001 to me. The guy probably got confused with the Blackstar and he would have still been wrong. Watch the bidding skyrocket due to some unsuspecting folks jumping in.
That's why I love this forum; it helps weed out the BS.

Well, at least it has "tow humbucker pickups".
That's always good.

I sent an e-mail to the seller alerting him of the discrepancy and a link to pics of a real Tuxedo. We'll see if he reacts.

I think they are supposed to look like this. At least mine does anyway.

...yeah, I wonder what the tow capacity of the pickups would be? LOL
I known of a few people to refer to the jetglo finish as "Tuxedo" because of the white on black look...I think these people have no idea that there was an actual Tuxedo finish.

Well, it WAS tested by Inspector #DTD-12, it must be OK, right?

Maybe inspector # DTD-12 is colorblind.

No, we've seen this mistake before. People calling a Jetglo a "tuxedo" because it's jet black and has a large bright white guard in contrast. They've probably heard of a Ric Tuxedo and assume this is it.
