I just got my x350 back from the shop after a refrett and some electronics work and all I can say is wow. I purchased this guitar last year and had have been waiting to use it on gigs - but with the small frets and unpotted pickups I could not use it live and really had no idea how good the guitar would sound. The guitar is very beautiful ( for pics see sheltonsguitars.com under the sold other guitars gallery) and I will post some shots in the next few days. There were four capacitors lurking in the guitars electronics which really coloured the tone of the franz pickups- once they were found and clipped the guitar has turned into a tone machine. Has anyone else had a similar experience? I also had one of the magnets flipped so that I have hum cancellation in two of the six pickup configurations, which I find to be very useful in a number of applications. All that I can say is that I love this guitar. Hurray for Guild.
