 Ni> Around 1998, I saw an announcement from Lace that they were going to start making an electric guitar they called the
 Ni> "Helix" - It was designed to be a very ergonomic guitar, with a comfortable body and a neck that was twisted 20
 Ni> degrees to match the position of the player's wrist as it moved along the neck (and I think it was only made for
 Ni> right-handed players, using the left hand on the neck).
 Ni> I feel lucky I stumbled on this guitar..  And I'm pretty surethe one I have has Lace's "Holy
 Ni> Grail" pickups, which are hum-canceling pickups, and they have great tone.

Really cool find. My lucky find was not as neat, but I like it just the same.
It's an Electra tele copy. Made in Japan. They supposedly got sued byFender for being too close of a copy.
I can't find a serial on it, but I don't want to take apart and see. I just know it was made in the 70s.
