Nice clean X340 with 7 of the better MPC modules and case. States that the 1st pot does not move or work and was modded so I am uncertain if any other mods were made or if the MPC circuits work. I have sent a question and will update when I get the answer. Looks clean other than that. :look:

I'd like to see a better picture of the top. The ones in his link look almost like the top is black.

I have rcvd a reply to the volume control question. Seems that the owner did not like a master volume control so this one is modded. It does not turn and I assume it is set to max. He does not know any more on its situation other than all other controls and MPC circuits work correctly. May be as simple as replacing the pot. Thats all I know at this point.

Not me this time. Would have been nice to score the modules. Hope someone here got it.

I snagged this one. :up:

Was a little apprehensive about the ridiculous shipping charge, but it gets me six modules I didn't have, and a pretty decent guitar. So, all in all, not too shabby...

Will probably end up fixing the pot on the guitar and selling it if anyone is interested....

It's not too terrible of a deal for all those modules and it ame with a free guitar! Do I recall a Gibson Chainsaw case too? Those are worth a fair piece of change by themselves. Hopefully the electronics fix will be easy - sounds like it should be. Congrats!

I saw that shipping charge of 100 too. I'd definately ask for a partial refund on that. eBay has a no no policy concerning excessive shipping charges.

No they don't care about the shipping. In fact, they now charge your final value fee with the shipping included.

Dang, does that make three Jacaranda's man? You need to do a photo expose sometime, Mike.
