These Electra Lady's look like pre-Dynasty's, or Dynasty's before they got all cool looking. This is one of the stranger '80's stylings to have hit the market, and does have a feminine look to it IMHO. Great sounding guitar though. Someone buy it for their Wife. Let the EGAS hit her, too!

I'm all over this... and I've got a mate in Denver to boot!!

There was one of these on the 'bay awhile back but I got outbid and ended up with my Futura instead. Totally happy with the outcome.

Baluski my friend, thou art a pointy guitfiddle fan also? You had bid on a Lady, got a Futura, and there's a sweet looking Dimension as your avatar...

I had to respond to your post just so I could see my Dynasty avatar under your Dimension. So cool... Quick, someone with another pointy avatar, post under mine!

OK... not a Westone, but it is a Matsumoku!!!

[Baluski]

The pointier the better! I'm digging this beast but I feel they're asking to much for it.

Anyways, I hope to acquire an Aria Urchin sometime in the future, it would fit right into my family.

Oh yeah baby, now that's what I'm talking about!!! Way to go, bring on the pointies!!! What is that thing anyway?!
It's so pretty it hurts...

I want to get one so pointy that it moderately injures my band mates while I'm playing it.

The pointy avatars in this thread almost poked my eye out.

What is that thing anyway?!

That would be my Vantage Invader II, bought in Australia a year and sent back to NZ to be stored with the rest of my gear!







... this is Don, the bloke in Aussie I bought it off. The one I'm holding is my personal Holy Grail; a Vantage VA912 neckthru electric 12 string that he bought through he States and kindly let me have a play with; it was like stroking an angels' naughty bits - it really was that good!! He didn't want to sell that one to me....

Maybe something to this effect...



Or this...

WHOA!!! That twelve string is a neck through?! Whew, just the idea of that makes me a little weak! Great you got to play it, bet it was a dream. And that Invader looks to be in superb condition! Look at that red, it's gorgeous, I'll have to add an Invader II to my list...

And Balusky, that is what I'm talking about! Those two pointies look downright dangerous!

And of course the Monark, which you like too. Looks like that point comes pre-sharpened!

Isn't there a guitar model named Urchin that is similar to this - maybe from Hondo?

Excellent CASE!!!

I thought that too, strangest case I've ever seen!

And you're right about the Urchin. Crazy looking thing! For an ever crazier looking "Urchin" type, check out this Quest Atak 5! http://cgi.ebay.com/Quest-Atak-5-Project-Matsumoku-Vantage-/300530207682?pt=Guitar&hash=item45f8ff0bc2

The Monark might be expensive, but it is the rarest of the Electra/Westone pointies. Even the Electra Lady pops up more often than Monarks do. My one and only pointy is my 1985 Dim IV bass. Pickups are so hot I have to plug it into the active side of my amp!

The Urchin is an Aria guitar.



There was a white Monark on the 'bay a month or so ago, I think it went for $350 or around there.

Hey now!
Who're you callin' "crazy lookin'"?
URCHIN 60T

Alright Barry! I didn't take you for the pointy type! She's a looker, that's for sure, and great job restoring her to her former beauty (she's an 'exotic' beauty... ).

Ha!! He's not, but came over to the Dark Side just this once.... he's a Spectrum man, like myself!

Yes, it's a funny 'ole world, eh?
