You are bidding on a vintage Electra electric guitar ... ...this guitar has been in storage for at least 20 years as part of a large collection of Japanese and Korean guitars, including many custom and prototype guitars-great for a collector !
This guitar has many quality features that are pretty hard to find these days like a nice, thin and fast neck...  

Please Note : All Guitars can experience minor changes during shipping due to changes in temperature, humidity and other regional considerations, especially if the guitar is shipped a long distance.  These changes will require minor adjustments for the instrument to play properly-if your not sure how to adjust the TR, take it to an experienced luthier for set up. In addition, many guitarists have particular preferences on how they like their guitars set up-it really is a individual choice With this in mind, please be aware of the cost of minor adjustments and/or set up to your liking should be anticipated whenever you purchase a guitar in the mail.  

The guitar will ship in a period correct HS case via UPS ground, Insured. We will only ship to the PayPal confirmed address, sorry this auction is limited to the Continential US only, sorry no international shipments. Shipping/Packing is done according to best policies of Gibson, Fender, Ibanez and regulations of both UPS and Fedex-if you have some special requirements, just let us know. We have shipped well over 800 guitars over the past decade, and we haven't had ANY damages yet-most of our customers are so amazed at our packing, that they comment in their feedback !

This guitar could use a set up/cleanup, but Its a near MINT example of the early days of the Japanese imports. Great looking head turner-very early "torch" Headstock Design- and a fantastic sounding guitar ! Lots of nice luthier work-Made in Japan. This guitar is part of a large collection and has spent most of its life in storage-very good condition except for oxidation of some parts-just a few edge chips and bings and the broken off selector switch tip (tip is in case) hint at the age of this guitar. The frets do show some wear, but those 70's frets are fat and tall and can handle a couple of dressings/crowning as you wish. This guitar is original-the condition is just amazing, like being in a time machine ! ......

This guitar is a fantastic player as is-the original pickups have just enough snarl in em ! Play it as is, or use it as a platform to find that perfect tone...
Ships in a period correct HS case case-not the prettiest case, but it will protect the guitar ! It looks good on the inside, but is banged up pretty good on the outside....  Someone is going to get a fantastic bargain on this one, as I am out of room and have to sell some guitars... I have tons of feedback, will answer all questions so bid with confidence.... Shipping is a flat rate of $45 and includes professional packing and insurance via UPS Ground.  SORRY...no international shipping. ... Check out our impeccable feedback rating and bid with confidence.
