Look at this, Ive never seen or at least not noticed a Phoenix with the truss adjustment at the body and not on the head stock.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/321881383523?_t ... EBIDX%3AIT

Everything about it is Electra, an 83' neck stamping and the body looks ok. What do you guys think?

I am not bidding on this so feel free to jump on it.

The first thing I noticed about this auction is his comment that this is all original. From what I have seen the only models that had a truss rod adjustment at the body are the X130 Stained, the X135 Natural and the X145 series. If this is an X110JB why is the truss rod at the body?

Westone Spectrum X120 had truss adjustment at the body, and they were made in the same factory.....

So this might be even more rare than the seller thinks? Even so its a nice clean guitar for a good price. Seller has a fine looking Del Ray also.
