Yep! Great guitar! Just the perfect thing for somebody who loves the Spectrum and is ready to upgrade to a set neck and better pickups :)

I definitely want it...but I'll have to wait and see how high it gets.

in the past FX's typically go for 250-450. Probably the gold ones command the highest prices, but also that black stripe is flat black and somewhat fragile, it shows wear, and sometimes I've seen the bidding go a little higher when it's really pristine.

But make no mistake, the FX is the best guitar I've ever played, on so many fronts. I'm not bidding, I'm happy with mine :)

Is it just me, or did this auction not have a reserve until a couple of hours ago? Am I losing what's left of my mind, or did the seller just put a reserve on??? The answer could be yes to both questions of course :-)

it had a reserve, but it started at like 9.99 or something really low....

the black one I had was pretty cool :wink: glad it's in the hands of someone who will use it :)

Hmm, so I am losing my mind :-) I may still take a run at this one, the price is still fair.

Ahh well, not to be. I did bid on it, but I was super sniped (hats off to zapapa1 for the fastest fingers in the west!). Still, reserve wasn't met...probably because the seller wants a whopping 50 bucks for shipping...that kept my bid down...that and he doesn't ship to Canada. Oh well, better luck next FX :-)
