Electra Guitars

Electra was a brand of electric guitars and basses manufactured in Japan and distributed in the US by two companies owned by brothers: Saint Louis Music (SLM) and Pacific Coast Music in the 1970s and early 1980s.

In 2013, the brand launched a successful comeback led by renowned luthiers Ben Chafin and Mick Donner.

Later, as all models came to be made by Matsumoku, Electra guitars offered high quality at competitive prices.

After rave reviews and a growing roster of artist endorsements, Electra Guitars unveiled a number of new models in 2014 including the Invicta, Talon, Phoenix H & S Guitars and the Phoenix Bass.

It did nothing except send a fairly weak clean guitar signal to headphones via the jack.
