So while I am waiting to receive it I figured that I could whet my appetite with anybody's insights in my incoming guitar. All that I have are crappy evilBay pics... And almost No Description! This guy is a man of few words. His total description in the listing was... "You Will Love The Sound Of This Electric model #6778LX Right Handed Guitar...Get It Now & Thank You!"     Wednesday seems so far away! :mad: But they are coming Fed Ex so they might arrive on Tuesday... OH! "They"... I got an SG Beater coming too! :D But I am really much more interested in any information on the pretty Elite.  | ||

I will try agin...    It is just a beat-up solid body. I am hoping that I can just slap some knobs on it change the strings and it'll be a good one. (That I overpaid for) On the back by the electronics cover there was a bumper sticker that left gunk... Will Goof-Off or Goo-Gone take the paint off? But I am REALLY looking forward to the 6778LX! I bought the SG first, and if I had known that I was gonna be getting the Elite, I wouldn't have bought the SG. This is why I gotta sell the 1111-CG to finance my habit! | ||

Make sure the sock is clean, and sent it's partner.  BTW- I was in the process of stripping my bed and washing my linen when FX came! :p And it is so Hard to get the color to come-out right on these photos...     This is a nice sounding guitar, but I will make it better. (Not with my talent, that's for sure) Now I gotta change the strings and clean it up. OH! When this arrived it had the preamp stuffed in the can incorrectly. (Of course it didn't work that way... I wonder if that is why he sold it?) Anyway, I had to grit my teeth and shove the wide end of the teardrop back in so that I could get it back out. I just cannot see how people can even DO something like that! :confused: I was obviously wrong, and it didn't wanna come back out very easily. Like I said, I had to close my eyes and SHOVE! (Please don't break, Please don't break, Please don't break! :D ) | ||
