I watched the auction for this and when it was passed in, contacted the seller - whom I knew on the Westone forums - and did a deal that we're both happy with so she gets some dosh and I get a Westone Spectrum LX, otherwise known as a Phoenix X198. It needs a little work but nothing much beyond spit and polish... oh, and a bit for the Bendmaster FT bridge... :bawl: but I'm happy enough.
Yes, yes; I know it's not an Electra but you don't see them that often this side of the pond, and this is one of Tom's babies, so that's good enough for me!!! :D

Oh, new avatar is a Vantage Invader II purchased in Australia on our way over here... and then sent back to NZ because of exorbitant baggage and freight charges!! :roll: So I haven't even played it through an amp yet... :roll: :roll: Ah well.... :-? :D
