:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: The Guitar is a real beauty but the price must reflect the Goverment Only Stimulus Loan Bankers Special Rate for the price. This is a Bank breaker for certain and a Budget Destroyer. I love a good electra same as everyone but this is ridiculus. :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

She's pretty clean, doesn't even look like there's much scuffing on the back which is common. I've seen this one before, and I doubt he'll get his asking price. This guy always photographs his guitars with some kind of vertical blinds, which I can't figure out if he's trying to be artsy, or trying to give the guitar a 'flamey' look or what.

Looks like someone has been playing with the pickups, as they are going the same direction, which is a no-no for phase cancelation, although the X-935's have the phase push/pull, so you could correct it at the flick of a switch. I tell you that kinda beat X-935 blackbeauty is still on craigslist for $225... someone should pick that up.

We'll see. Who knows? A thing is worth what someone will pay for it. This seller gets +1 from me for having tasty photos, but -1 for using a venetian blind to throw lines across the guitar -- obviously it's not the same as the flame, but it lends a fakery air that's quite unneccesary for this great guitar.

It'll happen. You know that there's someone out there with $1000 to burn. :P

Beautiful guitar, but I'm not sure I'd pay that much.
