Hey everyone,
haven't posted here in a while, come to think of it i haven't posted anywhere in a while including the Westie forum where i frequent often. Anyway, i was flipping thru my recent Vintage Guitar mag and saw and ad for Electra guitars in there and tought it was super cool! I assume someone is trying to spread the word a bit and was wondering if anyone here was behind it. Cool to see the Electra peace sign logo in there, i apologize if this has been posted somewhere. These incredible guitars deserve respect, just keep the prices low! :D

Yes I saw that one also it was to cool. That would be from our Forum member Ben Chafin who has made some new prototype models and has the rights to the Electra Brand name now I believe. He is the owner and also the maker of Chafin Custom Guitars and is a top notch luthier and nice gentleman. You can do a search for his posts from the past that show his prototype models that look much like the endorser models.

You can follow the thread here: viewtopic.php?f=15&t=4863&p=34602&hilit=ben+chafin#p34602
