Not in the worst shape I've seen and not the original control knobs but they come up for sale so rarely.

You back in the market Pat??

I think I'm going to get it.

By coincidence, there's a rather tasty-looking X390PW just been listed on eBay (UK) - starting price £400...

Who got it?

I got the US one.
The one with the damaged neck may go on sale soon. I haven't decided.

I totoally missed this one. Although I do not want another with the BMD - just not a big fan of them. One of these days..

gotta love that Caspian blue

Congrats

Yep, that's why I did it despite my agreement w/ sarcaster about not liking the bend master deluxe.

One of you lads over the pond must go for that Pearl White one, you know ...

Still no bids on the white one...and looks minty. Might be a bargain for someone in the UK.

I can't really justify it, BUT if it doesn't sell in the meantime, I'm planning on nipping over to the shop on Friday to have a look at it 'in the flesh', so I'll report back later...

Got the X-390CB yesterday.

Loving it!

One thing confuses me.
It has a Floyd Rose trem instead of the Kahler.

Do we have any record of that being an option?
Is it possible someone routed the Kahler trem cavity into a Floyd Rose cavity?

And the trem is a licensed Floyd Rose rather than a Bendmaster. I think I prefer that, but if it originally had a Bendmaster DLX, I might want to return it to spec.

Thoughts?

Never heard of a Floyd Rose being an option. I'm quite sure you'd see it if there was a Kahler before, however. My guess would be that the previous owner replaced the Bendmaster (quite tricky according to colt).

Someone got a bargain...The white x390 went for 410 GBP (475 EUR/625 USD).

I went back and looked more closely at the guitar page.

There is a notation that some of the Pearl White X390s had Bendmaster Deluxes. There is no such notation for the Caspian Blue.

That should probably be added now.

Yep, it went before I had a chance to go & have a look at it - which is a blessing really, because even at that price I shouldn't have even been thinking of buying it...

There are at least 2 other x390cb with bm dlx from what I remember (colt/crambone).

Cool. Good answer.

Yes, I have one. I've seen pictures of 3-4 others, including one somewhere in Benelux and I believe the rest in USA.
