Any guy that names his bass "Thor, God of Thunder", I think antagonizing is a bad idea.

Electra; was Thor's woman in mythology. A fitting replacement.


Electra was also a Japanese guitar line made by Matsumoku of Matsumoku, Japan and imported to the USA from 1971 until 1984 by St. Louis Music (SLM), who as most bassists know also owned Ampeg for a long time. They had some pretty big guns using and endorsing Electra guitars and basses. Peter Frampton, Chris Squire, Leslie West and Rick Derringer. Those were all big names back then. The Electra brand evolved into Westone.

Shame that the photos of the Roger Waters bass is gone. Nice looking instrument.
