This is a treasure trove for the MPC lover. A nice original X730 outlaw w OHSC and 9 MPC modules to include Octave, tube,bass/treb/ Phaser/Power O drive/Filter follower/ Tank Tone/ and fuzz. This one is worth a fortune just for the modules alone. How bad will someone want this one?

I agree that if there are any takers on this one that it will go high also. I have seen others listed with lots og goodies also that eventually sold seperatly or at a considerably lower pkg price.

in the pics, it almost looks like a 720. maybe it's just bad lighting...

I'm waiting for this one to finish up befiore putting my 730 up. I'll have modules listed out seperately for sure.....

It was a nice package and I though it might end high but looks like someone wanted it very bad indeed, although the modules were worth a good portion of the price and it was a good find for someone that did not want to search for modules.

If you want the tube sound module to collect, yeah, I can see that. I have all 12.

But the tube sound module is pretty lame otherwise. Don't waste your money unless you are collecting. Now if you have all the other 11 - by all means go for it. It isn't terrible, it just isn't good. It is about like the non-modified overdrive module - it does not do much and is disappointing. You are not missing much.

Yeah, I suppose if you could consider the modded overdrive a 13th one, but not everyone would want a modified one if they collect (only if they plan to use it). But I didn't keep any of mine stock (unless they were the sealed epoxy types you can't modify - and I sold those off a long time ago). I wanted to use them and it works great after the mod. The mod can be undone, and I would do for free if someone didn't like it - but no one has ever taken me up on it. In fact I have modified multiples for several people.

I think I have an extra working phaser, and another that does not work (will have to make sure and test them). The rest I don't have any extras. I have been wondering if I should break up the collection and just keep the ones I will use. Maybe I can sell a few of the rare ones and get another Electra guitar or two. :D I am down to only two Electras, and that just isn't right :-?
