8) :love: Nice example of the X640 Bass in Black. Has active EQ and I don't think this one will last long. http://cgi.ebay.com/Electra-Phoenix-Bas ... vi-content

It is really depressing that this still has no bids and I don't have the funds to swipe it. I would like a gigging X640 to go with my more pristine one...

Don't be depressed, I picked it up and will bring it to ElectraFest.

It's not in bad shape. haven't plugged it in. Serious truss rod adjustment needed. Right now it looks like Robin Hood's bow.

If you come into some cash, this is my second one and I will help you make it yours.

Glad to know it went to someone here! I'll keep that in mind and shoot you a message if my luck with work picks up enough. As for Robin Hood's bow, I doubt it's as bad as my Westone Dimension bass was when it came in... the strings were literally an inch off the fret board. I was amazed the neck hadn't snapped, the strings were overtightened to an amazing degree. But considering that neck straightened out, I'm sure this Phoenix will be fine. Can't wait to see it at the ElectraFest, even if only through pictures.
