Electra X-260 Invicta – Used
The Electra X-260 Invicta, produced in the late 1970s and early 1980s, was part of Electra’s MPC (Modular Powered Circuits) era and showcases the company’s blend of quality Japanese craftsmanship and innovative design. Built with solid tonewoods and reliable hardware, the Invicta has become a cult favorite among players seeking something unique outside the mainstream brands.
With its set-neck construction, dual humbuckers, and straightforward controls, the Invicta delivers strong sustain and versatile tones ranging from warm cleans to classic rock crunch. Its compact double-cutaway body provides comfortable playability, and its build quality reflects the high standards of Japanese manufacturing at the time.
This used example is in good condition, showing cosmetic wear consistent with its age including finish checking, small dings, and scuffs. The frets are in solid shape, the electronics function as intended, and the guitar has been professionally set up for reliable playability.
