Recently found, I did not know of these so it was new to me:

Lenny Breau Electra MPC X310 -

“Paul Yandell shot the picture of Lenny that graces the cover of this album at Ireland's in 1976. The guitar Lenny is holding in the photo is Yandell's Electra X310, which Lenny eventually pawned.”

Nice pictures.

I guess this answers the question that was up a while ago about did Electra make steel guitars.

From the Buddy Emmons site:

Endorsing

Electra Effects
& Guitars
(Actually just the effects)

So maybe the steel question is still unverified.
