I think I have an X640W - Y'all know I sell on ebay and I was getting ready to post it until I read on the Home page "The X640W might be one of the rarest of all Electra Phoenix, at present we have no image of one and only the catalog's mention of its existence." It has a 1981 s/n, black pickguard with 2 pickups, brass bridge, nut, and knobs, pickup selector switch, 3 toggles, and (2) 9v batteries in the back - and it is white !! It grades to Blue Book Excellent, and is complete and all original, and includes the black rectangular case. I have been unable to post pix on here in past - if someone will walk me through process I'll certainly be glad to do so - also, how do I contribute images to the Page ?? and speaking of contributing - I'm a member of the Steel Guitar forum and when I make a sale to a member, I contribute to that forum ($) - is there a way to do that here ?? (I've sold 2 guitars to an Electra Forum member already (through ebay) -- anyway, thought I'd post this here first !! My egular email is drdavelizzard@yahoo.com -- thanks, Dave http://www.rivercityamps.com/electrafor ... NY4679.JPG

Howdy there, Dave - what I suspect most of us do to post pictures here is upload our photos to an online hosting service - Photobucket, Imageshack et al. - and then c+p the .img code that you are given into our posts here; easy as; it's gotta be else I couldn't do it, eh!! :rofl:

As for your other questions, I'm not sure and we haven't seen X189player around for ages so they may go unanswered!!

The photobucket way is the simple way. If you have problems with the other you can send me the pics and I will post them for you. mortarman120gang@yahoo.com
Would like to see the pics of this one.

I have to agree that Photobucket appears to be easier for a space to maintain your media.

Dr Dave - where did you get the bass in Amarillo?

Just listed it on ebay for $639 BIN or Best Offer -- and, as one member who has posted on this thread knows, I'm open to offers (I haven't asked him if I could use him for a reference, so I won't name him !! But he left good feedback - twice !!) Thanks, Dave

Wow, I've seen a white one before but that one is in much nicer shape! Wish I had the cash, but then again I have an X640 already, haha.
