30th Anniversary Johnny Ramone Model???? Semie Made???

Hey Guys,

I found these pics, and probably some of you have seen these, but I think it's worth talking about this guitar. Some unusual things to consider. Even though Semie was no longer with us, this guitar has very similar features that one would find on the late 80's early 90's Mosrites. The neck stamp has the 80's logo, so far as I know fillmore, nor any other japanese company has ever reproduced the original ventures 2 pickups, and even the finish reminds me of the paint jobs Semie was doing during this time. Then again I'm sure it's possible that this could be a Fillmore prototype, since Johnny was using fillmores on the last leg of the Ramones last tours in 95-96. Maybe it's kinda like the missing link between original Mosrites, and the new ones ;)
If anyone knows more about this guitar, I should would like to know. If nothing else, enjoy the pics :D
