ELECTRIC: CADILLAC SERIES

The body design looks like a cross between a Les Paul and an Explorer with the rounded lower bout and Explorer-ish treble horn. The Cadillac version originally featured three pickups (versus the E´lite´s two) but now the Cadillac name designates the body style.
The Cadillac series recently released the 25th Anniversary Cadillac at a retail of $2,899. There are other Cadillac models as well. Since these are sold individually between different dealers accurate pricing is yet to develop on most of these.
