Nope; it's not, and yeah; you're dead right - they would indeed!! These things are more unusual on the 'bay - or anywhere else! - than X350s!! I've seen 2 of these for sale in 5 years and by way of comparison, I've seen about 7 X350s...

Great sounding guitar... this one's a bit tatty but eminently fixable!!

The debut of the S-H-S pup configuration. First time for a blade style pup as well, no?

I do not see these x195's too often but this is still an overreach on the starting price, IMHO.

What kind of bridge is that? It looks a lot like a Kaher, but I've never seen a Kahler like it.

Corsair was among those over at the Electra forum who spotted that as well. I can't say 100% what it is either. Question Question The blade pup seems to be an add on as well.

Anyone....Anyone??
