The woods used in the construction of this guitar were specially hand-picked by me and supplied by Exoctic Woods of Burlington, Ontario, Canada, which boasts some of the finest quality instrument-making woods.

Among the outstanding features of Electra are its master-grade quilted maple top, highly figured AAA grade curly maple back, special V-profile maple neck, beautifully carved headstock, stack humbucker bridge pickup with coil-tap on tone control for a variety of humbucking and single-coil sounds.
