I picked up this beauty recently at a pawn shop.

She not only sounds - but feels great.

I'm a bit unsure of what model it is. There doesn't seem to be any serial numbers written anywhere

Any thoughts ?

This is not an Electra, but is in fact an Electa. I don't know if there is an Electa forum, but someone else might know about them.

I believe the Electa models are Chinese made and are not Electra manufacture. These are relatively new guitars. I have never seen nor played one so have no opinion on it but it looks a lot like a Johnson Guitar.You may find some good info here

You can upload the photos to a host site such as photobucket.com etc then copy and paste the link to photos in a forum message. :up:
