Interested in this guitar? IT'S FOR SALE! Call LAWMAN MIKE (312) 848-1864 Today, Lawman Guitars is Presenting.. A really cool all original 1976 Electra Lawsuit Omega X220 guitar. These guitars were way ahead of their time and of course directed their sales efforts to Gibson Players that couldn’t afford a Les Paul as their market. They did too good a job, thus the Lawsuits from Gibson… This all original Electra plays as good as it looks. We had it Professionally setup with new 9’s and it has great awesome low playing action that very easy on the fingers. No sore fingers with this one! Heres some info I found from the new Electra Company regarding these cool guitars… Looking back at the original Electra Guitars, over four decades ago, a group of creative entrepreneurs wanted to make state of the art, affordable guitars available to musicians. They decided to pool their talents to create a new line of guitars. The challenge was to design, build and market instruments that were well-built and innovative while still being a great value. As fate would have it the founding fathers of Electra Guitars would build guitars with innovations far ahead of their time. New switching concepts for pickups, onboard effects and aesthetic upgrades to classic designs, would become the cornerstone of Electra Guitars’ popularity. In 1975, Tom Presley was hired as Electra Guitars product manager. His vision included guitars with innovative switching combinations of pickups and onboard guitar effects. John Karpowitz was hired to make Tom’s vision a reality. The first Presley/Karpowitz project was the Super-Magnaflux humbucking guitar pickups. The pickups, along with their wiring assemblies, were entirely US made. These proved to be such an improvement over existing selector switch systems that several Nashville pros started using them in their USA-made guitars. Next was the Tone Spectrum Circuitry. A five-way variation on the Gibson six-way Varitone selector switch. Tone Spectrum provided in- and out-of-phase, series, parallel, and access to two more toggles wired to tone capacitors. This was introduced on the Electra Guitars Omega. This Electra has all of those inovations as well as the Magnaflux Humbuckers.. Check those pics. With the Varitone switch and toggle switches to split the humbuckers, you have quite an array of sounds including many “out of Phase” sounds right on board. The guitar is all original but the tuners. The bridge pickup cover has the one end broken, see pics 4 and 5, and there is some cover-up work on the back. I would guess one of the owners had scratched or etched a name or number to identify his guitar. It was later scratched out. We left it alone. See pic 12. No pickguard but I think these look better with no guard. Frets are in great shape. This beauty is a set neck and ready to ROCK! This cool guitar didn't have its original case so we are including a Deluxed Brand New Hard Shell Case with it... A great home for your cool Made in Japan Les Paul….
