Well...I finally found an X-710 Outlaw that I liked and it's on the way. Been waitin for one in VGC to show up. I don't have any good pics right now but will snap a few when I get it.

This is the one with the E peace logo beneath the tailpiece. Pretty cool.

Someday the world will catch on as to how cool these neck-through guitars are. The 'branded' ones hold a special place for collectors. I'm still waiting to see a X740 Outlaw (Maple Laminated) up close, I think they look fabulous, but I'm betting they weigh a ton. Congrats, Mike.

I just found an old thread where you show off a nice X740 that you bought. Tell us how they compare, and if you'll be holding onto the X740 JD.

Here she is fellas....tell me what you think.

Action is great, finish is outstanding (couple dings)...but I gotta squirt the rotary and check out the effects with a new battery. That means a trip to the store....I've had it up the yang with batteries during this hurricane.

Pro...I'll do a comparison later on. Still cuttin trees.

This 740 is mint so I plan to hold onto it for quite a spell...unless something else happens.
