Congrads on a great guitar. I love the EMG's in my 390 so that should work out. Take some good pics when you recieve it and share em with the group

Love the blue too! The EMG's, not so much.

I will begin to hunt down some MMK 75's to try to get her back to original, but right now I'm just really enjoying how well made this guitar is.
It just has a natural sustain that only comes from good craftsmanship, the EMG's are very quiet and do sound great in this guitar.

Very nice indeedy, love that colour. Smile

+1 on the color, and that strap is just SICK! Shocked

Where did you come across that?

Thanks Iceman, I am really having a fun time bonding with the Pantera, I've played a lot of high quality guitars over the years and I have to say that the Westone craftsmanship is truly outstanding.
Glad you dig the strap. I found out about this artist named Al McWhite and really was stoked when Planet Waves released a few of his designs;

You have, in my humble opinion, the prettiest Pantera color avialable. This is only because they didn't come in Candy Apple Red. Laughing

Thanks so much for posting it on here, we really appreciate it. Good to hear you speak of the craftsmanship, and the EMG's probably would sound pretty sweet in there.

Welcome to both you and to that beautiful guitar! cheers

I beg to differ.... Classic metallic pink MUST be the most fabulousist Pantera colour!!! I mean, if that was a blueburst, then maybe I'd agree, but it's just dark blue, really, eh?! Laughing

Welcome here, though and all joking aside, that is a very special guitar; thanks for sharing!!!

**Warrn** on Mon Dec 19, 2011 5:28 pm

I definitely prefer the metallic pink. Seriously. Smile

But that is definitely the best color for the X390!

Westbone on Mon Dec 19, 2011 5:46 pm

Nope,

Candy Red, then Pearl white. BUT tops has to be Caspian Blue.

Pink, well what can you say Laughing

BLUEBURST!!

**corsair** on Mon Dec 19, 2011 6:53 pm

MMmmmmmm.... Blueburst!! I have 2 bluebursts but haven't seen them for 3 years.... Sad

I've an X195 Phoenix and a Spectrum GT...

Caspian Blue must look different "in the flesh", 'cause in photos they're just dark blue!!

Barry on Mon Dec 19, 2011 8:14 pm

I need a Blueburst to keep my red burst company Twisted Evil

**Warrn** on Mon Dec 19, 2011 8:46 pm

Man, Barry, that redburst is prettier than I remember it! And the black dyed fretboard really looks good on it.

So pretty...

That color looks AMAZING on the Prestige, too. I often think of that pretty Prestige.
