GAD, your experience with your X-170 mirrors my own. They are absolutely wonderful guitars. I have a number of very nice guitars but my 1998 mini-Manhattan plays the best of all of them. Nice review. It was worth the wait.

If you were to try to put a Bigsby on it, the hardest part would be to find a bridge that would work due to the neck angle. I had to find a low one and then take a lot of wood off of the base to fit it properly and lower the bridge even further. It now has very low action even with the Bigsby and is fine but it was not an easy solution.
