Picked this up on CL for $180 w/case. Looks to be 100% original and functional.

I saw that one on CL, great score brother! It was only $150 on line, did you have to bid it up?! I had to do that once, no fun. Great deal for you!

Ya, lust got the better of me and I caved to bidding up. Normally I just ignore CListers that play that game.

Excellent score on a nice Electra. These play and sound great and I like the necks as well. :up:

I saw that one too, glad you got to pick it up. That is still a good price for the blond Invicta. Hope it is in great shape and treats you well.

No major flaws. The tuners are tired, but new strings, a full setup, and a little tightening of the output jack was all that was needed. Electronics worked perfectly after a couple toggles and twists. Any idea if that is the original case?
I'm thinking about renewing the tuners for playability.
