Hi korenjak,

As a Les Paul copy, the X310 isn't in particularly high demand. I would say the guitar is valued around $300 USD give or take $50.

Thank you ....

I saw long time ago somewhere on the internet that the price of this guitar was 850 $ , in the past when fabric was active.....

I gave 200 euro for my Electra!!!

What is your opinion about the sound and look?

And what i can get if I change a magnets?

well I don't want to do that i just ask...

thanks

You may have seen gbase.com prices which are high retail - u are correct an X310 is up in the higher region. I would suggest to get that sort of money the guitar would need to be in very good condition and certainly all original...DO NOT change the pick ups if you want to keep maximum value.

Hi korenjak,

If my currency calculator is correct 200 euro is about $290 USD so I think we agree on value. I see people ask for rediculous amounts of money for different guitars all the time, this doesn't mean that anyone actually buys the guitar for that price. You may try watching the completed auctions on eBay to get a feel for the current market value of your Electra.

I owned an Electra Les Paul copy for many years. While there were aspects of the guitar I liked, I didn't like the pick ups very much. I sold the guitar about 8 years ago.

I agree with jedistar, if you don't like the sound of the guitar, don't change the pups. I suggest you sell what you have and buy a Les Paul copy built by a different company that suits your taste.

well i like electra sound, also les paul shape is my favorit tipe of the guitar....
i have the best sound on clean with a litle MPC overdrive.....

thank you all for the answers

i will not change pick ups , I just asked....

I have peavay RAGE 108 amp...

I supose that with some tube amp I will get exellent sound....

Maby Fender twin reverb or something like that...

thank you for the answers again

and all the best

Don't jump to the tube amp is perfect assumption..and blow a stack of money on a Twin Reverb straight up.

You can also try a range of pedals with your Peavey to give you some more sound options.

If you are thinking of moving to valves the 30 Watt Peavey Classic is very well regarded, good value and won't break your back.

Look for something 2nd hand/used and play it with 'your' guitar.
