I signed up a few years ago but never posted. I've owned a lot of Electras over the years but when I inherited my Dad's Workingman my interest was re-awakened. Some I've owned over the years:

x130n
x145r
x150
a couple of Outlaws
2266 Burgundy Pro
Super Rock
x410
Workingman(Currenty own)
Omega(Currently own)
and believe it or not an x910

I'm sure there were few others (Invicta maybe?)

Here's my current credentials:

And one I should never have sold:

The Workingman is stock... The Omega is modded to LP style controls and the switchs were there when I got it.. All I've done was clean up the electricals and get them working correctly.. the guitar plays great.. Currently it has a Dimarzio Norton in the bridge and a GFS VEH(good sounding pickup) in the neck. The switches are series/split/parallel and the middle is a phase switch.

Welcome, you have two nice guitars there. My Workingman plays way better than its budget line credentials would have you believe.

Welcome aboard Gadjet. I'm a newbie here,but I already have Egas. It's easy to pick it up around here after seeing all the Killer guitars. :)

Welcome to you. You wish you hadn't gotten rid of that x910 too though, right?

Yeah.....moving off the 910 is a big regret.
A long time ago though

Welcome to the forums and you have a nice pair of guitars there. I also enjoy the workingman models as they offer great playability and tone and you don't have to worry about giggin with them.
