Electrum Model E 16mm Graphite Paddle
The Model E Graphite Paddle maintains a fairly long handle measuring 5 1/4", making it possible to perform double-handed backhands. The grip has a large circumference (4-1/2") which provides cushioning for the handle and is wrapped with a leather grip which not only feels luxurious but resists wear and moisture better than rubber grips. The weight range is 7.9 - 8.4 oz. which is on the medium-heavy weight side, and translates to a moderate degree of added put-away power and ground stroke confidence.
The graphite Electrum Model E Pickleball Paddle creates optimal feedback and allows for versatile play by experienced players.

Model E
Jan 25, 2023
It’s my first ‘real’ pickleball paddle although I’ve played with many others. First thoughts, muted, low power, control and touch.. served great with it, touch shots were easier than any other paddle I’ve used, I have some adjustment with the longer body and my swing speed being slower but it’s still very early to fully qualify it, I like it out of the box but it’s definitely different from the other paddles I’ve used. Spin is another plus, I hit top spin drives with everything, this is enhanced a lot with the Model E, also I notice lobs were ridiculous with top and control.

Electrum Model E

This pioneering design is still one of the best paddles. I like the elongated aspect and the raw carbon face for super-high rpm on serves. The thicker face provides more control, easier resets and more consistent soft shots (although less pop) than the Electrum Pro, which I also have. For Bangers, I pick the Pro, and thankfully 99% of my play benefits from the Model E. I also really like the simple graphics. This paddle means business and I feel it has really helped me improve my game.

Electrum E 16mm paddle
Dec 11, 2022
I am only 8 mos into pickleball and the Electrum E was my first paddle. I love the control. I bought this 'backup' paddle and because I am not sure how much longer my first one will last. I have never thrown or abused the paddle but it is falling apart. The trim around the paddle is not a part of the edging. So when you hit the court too many times trying to dig up those shots at your feet, the trim comes loose. But other than that design flaw, I love the paddle.

I purchased the paddle when I felt I went to the advanced intermediate level. Now playing advanced, its serving me well. I held back a 5 star only because this is my 1st good paddle. Are there better out there? Could be but this ones a keeper for a long while.
