There is a nice Electrum on CL for sale: http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/msg/2773601809.html I'd love to find a nice 80's MIJ Strat with a thick neck and stock PUP and trem configuration (no humbucker or Floyd Rose), but the the several I have seen fall into the 500 - $600 range these days. mica Moderator Username: mica Post Number: 7608 Registered: 6-2000 Posted on Friday, January 27, 2012 - 12:33 am:    That Electrum can't be from 1979. Maybe 1989. pace Senior Member Username: pace Post Number: 820 Registered: 4-2004 Posted on Friday, January 27, 2012 - 6:34 am:    Mica, I was going to question that as well, especially with the H/S/H pickup config.... Which leads to my next question~ When did Alembic produce the first non-series GUITAR???? ("wolf" and other one-offs aside).... Was there a six string distillate equivalent in the late seventies?
