The Electra Forums

I garbage picked an electra Phoenix. Probably a 185. It has three pickups, no , and is a metallic green/brown color. I don't know if it's worth fixing up. It certainly needs new strings. Most of the screw heads are corroded. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

See if you can post some pictures for us. That goes a long way in helping us to diagnose what this Phoenix would need. Of course asking us if it should be restored is like asking a drinker if he would like another.

Why don't people around me put Phoenixes out with their trash?

Will do. Turns out it's a 190. I was thrown off the track because the trem bar is missing.
