I just bought an Electra Phoenix Strat. (3 single coils) Vintage sunburst. I have looked at all the models on this web site and it most closely matches the X 145. but this one does not have the pickguard and It has the Eletra Westone 83-84 style LOGO although is says Electra phoenix just like my X185 and the Strat has a nataural Neck instead of black. It has the rounded pickup bezels that can be found on the early dyansty and X 195 single coils. I am pretty sure it is a 145 could someone please confirm that for me.

thanks and Hey nice neck swap! I was tinking of buying the westone LX neck on eBay right now and doing the same thing.
I am glad to know that it is a 145 because Tom Presley has mentioned in the past how much he likes this guitar.
