Anyone know what the third back access cavity here is for (Battery?..Preamp?)

If they are EMG Retroactives, the do indeed use a battery.

The X300's are'nt too bad either ..saw them at the store that day too.



They have one of those dedicated battery compartments though (and the same EMG's)








It's just that that Dragon burst is pretty well done ..& kind of unusual, especially on a superstrat

hhha.....and the real Schecter's, Squire's, Ltd's, Sterling's, Dean's etc..etc..

They're great playing guitars & tremendous bang for the buck. If you're buying new, nothing else comes close in $500-700 range especially. And they've been edging up higher with the x500's/700's/Duality's/G Custom's etc...

Aren't those passives and need no battery?

No idea what they are ..but they're EMG's not EMGHz's. I saw that myself. They look identical to the Retroactives (actives..ie they have an external preamp) that were in the X300 which was hanging just next to it. Either way, I don't really care..
