Found a lil 10 watt practice amp by Electra. Made in China. Never heard of such a thing. $14.95 at the pawn shop. Looked kinda junky but is cool lookin too.

These Chinese amps tend to go for $10.00-20.00. First started seeing them a few years back. There were some other Electra amps that have been documented. I think McBrat has a listing somewhere.

Seams like there were two companies, one that make these mcp guitars and the one that made the mpc guitars and all the rest.

I just wanna remove the name plate and screw it to the top of my x420vs. That would look so awesome!

If by awesome you mean "I am insane and should instantly be committed to a maximum security nuthouse" - you're right on!

I've seen a few of those and I'm sure they're complete garbage. I would drop $20 bucks in a heartbeat for one though. $25 I'd have to think about....

Hahaha! Yeah I was joking about that...went back to get the amp....it's gone. Never hesitate to buy anything if it's underpriced I guess. I dont need it but would've been cool to have.
