Sounds like it might be a custom Jamaica Plain Pajama Single Speed model. Hard to be positive without pics though.

Welcome to the Bicycle Forums.

There have been, literally, hundreds and perhaps thousands of different road bicycle produced over the years. With that in mind, supplying good clear pictures and detailed descriptions helps a lot when seeking information related to a bicycle of interest. So, if the OP would supply pictures and detail, he, or she, might have a hope of getting reasonable answers.

Again, welcome to the Bicycle Forums.

It may be a Joppajass. A brand made in Finland. Check the bottom bracket to see if the thread diameter and pitch are Scandinavian. If it is a Joppajass, it may be worth a lot because there are so few of them around any more. Want to sell it? I may be interested.

PS: Welcome to the forum and as others have urged, post some pics. We'll help as much as we can.

could be a Pinarello.

as well as not.

many of the logo letterings on frames appear somewhat different than what they actually are.

This has got to be a troll post.
