Members process sherpa Posted September 22, 2007 Members Share Posted September 22, 2007 I just pulled the trigger on a sea foam green with P90s. As soon as I bought it, I checked my email for the paypal confirm, and had an email about a guitar I put on craiglist a couple of weeks ago. I emailed back, and sold that one on the spot. I feel like "even Steven" in the Seinfeld episode. I think these xavieres are good karma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members C40 Posted September 22, 2007 Members Share Posted September 22, 2007 Jay, will you reissue the flametop XV500/700s sometime next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members iowa 51 Posted September 22, 2007 Members Share Posted September 22, 2007 My wife was good with it too. I got my confirmation. It's gonna be a long week til NGD and even longer til Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Guitarfetish Posted September 22, 2007 Members Share Posted September 22, 2007 Jay, will you reissue the flametop XV500/700s sometime next year? all new 500's, 700's and a semi hollow setneck wth quilt top called the XV-550 should be in stock before Thanksgiving. New headstock with pearl logo- I think they look cool- January brings about 5 times the amount of 600's and 650s that we got on the initial offering so those of you who get shut out (Some models almost sold out already) We'll be taking refundable $50 deposits to hold guitars- That way you get the Christmas present in january. Also will have a few new colors. Looks like Sea Foam with P90s and Maple neck is the winner- We'll just call it the Frets99 Guitar! Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NitroGtr Posted September 22, 2007 Members Share Posted September 22, 2007 sniff... no cream 600s with p90s... No kidding. I would've grabbed one already if it was available. At any rate they seem like a hell of a guitar for the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Squier Fat Telecaster Posted September 22, 2007 Members Share Posted September 22, 2007 Jay- How would the retroton liverpools sound in this model? Have you thought offering boring PAF's as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Guitarfetish Posted September 22, 2007 Members Share Posted September 22, 2007 The hot ticket in these is the Nashville- The guitar has such booming low end- shocking for a semi hollow- that I prefer a brighter, tighter pickup. Also the lipstick humbuckers sound deadly in these. Although they're basically a pre-modded deal- we put the most popular upgrades in them stock- Everybody has different tastes and since these are the real retail version of our pickups you can swap em out and move em on ebay or put them in a different guitar if you like.

Members Guitarfetish Posted September 22, 2007 Members Share Posted September 22, 2007 In fact I'm sitting here right now playing the 650 in red metalflake with a pair of Nashvilles and the MODboard wah circuit in it... nice. (Oh also noodling on my 58 LP RI with Duncan antiquities- also nice... the 650 is $3800 cheaper) Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
