Chrome sealed Electra tuners are in perfect working order. Neck is straight and truss rod is fully functional. Frets are in great shape and have a ton of life left in them.

Frets are in good condition for its age, and the fingerboard shows only a few small signs of wear.īody: Single cutaway mahogany body with maple cap in dark walnut finish. The most noticeable damage is on the side of the headstock (see photos). There are various scratches, scuffs, nicks, dings, and chips, as well as some pickwear. A quality piece at a great price, this guitar comes with a professional setup from Cream City Music included.Ĭosmetic condition: Very good condition for the age of the instrument. The neck is extremely comfortable, and will have you playing up and down the quick and comfortable rosewood fretboard for hours at a time. These are instruments of outstanding quality and playability.What makes this guitar special: This solid wood beauty has great resonance and outstanding tone. Cosmetically this 40+ year old 2247 is in exceptional shape. The maple fretboard is inset with gorgeous (and genuine) abalone vines.
The artistic flare of this guitar is obviously the intricately embossed leaf and vine motif on the solid mahogany body. The two original humbucking pickups (a chrome-covered one in the neck and an uncovered black one in the bridge) have megatons of bite and fierce growl to them, making this a fantastic guitar for classic rock or metal. Every screw on this Electra is original, exceptional quality Electra branded tuners, fully adjustable bridge with Les Paul-style stop tail piece, black speed knobs, and a B/W/B pickguard. The headstock and neck are both expertly bound.
This 2247 is an early version Electra that featured a bolt-on neck (later models adopted a neck-thru design). None-the-less an eye-catching piece of art.
The guitar is an obvious, but very high quality knock-off of the SG body design. A very rare pre-Lawsuit Electra with the "Open Book" iconic Gibson style headstock and a Gibson-esque diagonal Electra logo.
