1989 custom made Electrum
« on: June 06, 2012, 03:59:34 PM »
This guitar was made in 1989, which is a few years after Electrums were normally produced. It has an interesting pickup configuration and a 5-way switch. Needless to say, it sounds fantastic. I also like the Strat style output jack. The body is thin and light and balances nice!   All in all, one unique guitar.

Beautiful guitar!  The 12th fret inlay is a nice touch.

Been toying with an Electrum reissue. It is such a cool shape! Yours is really lovely.

VERY nice, David!  The 12th fret inlay is sweet as can be! How do you use her? What kind of music do you play?
