Hi all, just found this forum and am making my first foray here. I had an Electra MPC X320 back in the early 80's that I played in a garage band (ahh misspent youth!) I sold that guitar with hardcase and 4 Modules for pretty cheap back in 84 (along with some other gear I'm kicking myself for getting rid of, but hey, needed the cash)

I'm wondering what a good condition X320 would run nowadays with the Phase Shifter, Tank Tone, Flanger and Overdrive modules. I realllly loved that guitar and have poked around on ebay for a 320, but havent had any luck finding one.

Anyway, if any of you RKI's could chime in that would be great.

Thanks!

8) I have watched on ebay and craigs list and most that are in good ot better shape with at least 2 modules(usually phaser and overdrive or treble expander ) with a case or gig bag seem to go for $425-$500+ but there may be better deals out there you just have to keep a good watch. The well played and dinged ones may be somewhat cheaper as well as the non original ones. Hope this helps and good hunting. I bought my X330(all original w phaser and treble expander MPC modules) and in good shape with nice gig bag for $450 but I had looked for some time.

Thanks Mortarman. I'll keep looking. I had a Marshall pig stack that I used to ram it through and man did that axe just scream. Course I sold it too. darn, you have any idea what a Marshall Major head goes for nowadays? :x I looked about a year ago and most that I saw were in the 3-3.5K range. I had a lot of "one off" guitars and a couple of name brands, but I have to say, that 320 was the best of them all. :)

I sold this one here: (bottom of page)http://www.rivercityamps.com/electrapage/comments.php?y=07&m=10&entry=entry071002-070353 a while back on Craigslist for $500.00 to a kid I assumed was getting it for himself.I felt lucky selling it because he was the ONLY person to respond
to the ad. A day later I was suprised he put it up on ebay and tried selling it here!:http://www.rivercityamps.com/electraforum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=3938 Nice guy though even if he sold it for $575.00 buy it now/free shipping on ebay not making much money if any.He must have had a buddy that worked at UPS or something.

Anywhooo the moral to my rambling story is the good ones show up every once in awhile and like anything else it just takes time to find one you want. They are definitely one of those "keeper" guitars.
