OK Here are all of my Electra instruments with the 2 new additions(Purchased from JMM collection) The Elvin Bishop and the X410 Jazz. These are a dream to play and sound absolutly AWESOME clean and with distortion etc. I am indeed a fortunate man to have these to add to my modest collection. Thanks again JMM.

Nice cross section of the Electra line there man, and knowing what great shape each and every one of them are in, an impressive collection. Cheers, Mike.

Great collection!

I noticed that although your X330 has the wave headstock, it has a plastic nut and it appears not to have the brass saddle block under the bridge?

This must be a very early X330 with the wave headstock transition.

I have a 1977 X330 with wave headstock - Serial Number 11193, with the brass nut and the brass saddle block under the bridge; is your SN lower in number than this?

:bawl: Sadly the serial number and model number sticker(silver info sticker on rear of headstock) was removed before I purchased it so I do not have that info. I assume from the plastic nut and other stated items that is is indeed and early transition model. It is totaly stock and shows no signs of any mods or tampering.It also plays awesome and sustains well even though there is no brass to be found. Thanks

:love: :love: :love: :love: 8) I have to make myself put the Elvin and the X410 down every day. They are without a doubt the best quality made and sound that I have ever had the pleasure to play. I am indeed honored and happy that JMM saw fit to part with them. I will put either of them up against a Gibson anytime. Thanks for the comments and Have a Happy New Year. I hope to attend the Electrafest in 2010 and will have these beauties with me. 8)
