Very interesting bass, Chris Squire played one.

Never sold in the UK - Electra was a US brand. So not very many of these around, and sadly many of those that are have been hacked about with, in emulation of the modified one that Squire played.

Considering its rarity, that's probably an almost reasonable price.

I've bought a couple of things off the seller including an Ovation Magnum and he's really into collecting unusual basses. Nice to see one of these in good condition the back of the neck area reminds me of John Birch basses. If I hadn't just bought an old Yamaha bass I'd be making an offer!

This is at the top of my list to find one of. But as Jon Said they are rare as hens teeth in the uk and Im yet to see one in the wild :-(

Chris Squire gives a demo of the Electra on this vid about 21.30 mins in - [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cprcYnffK_o"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cprcYnffK_o[/url]
Not my cup of tea soundwise I have to admit but it's an interesting and unusual bass

I know him as well - great guy.

As Coldflows said RARE.

Took me several years to pick a good one.

Really interesting thing to own, look at and play!
