Is there any forum members in the Bakersfield, CA area? This would be a great project or even for parts if the guitar is shot. I can't tell if it is bolt or set neck. Any thoughts on which model it is?

Almost impossable to tell the difference between the bolt on and set neck without a look at the back,

How is this thing not sizzling hot? And I do not mean hot as in "too cool", I mean HOT!

It's a X185, the X199 came with the deluxe two point floating tremolo bridge. The pickups alone are worth $80... I did see this a couple days ago, but I have to really psych myself up to buttering up a long distance seller into shipping something, and just couldn't bring myself to do it on this one. Somebody will get a nice winter project out of it. Too bad the knobs are missing. Good luck, Mike.
