Product Description
The EastCoast ST1 is the ultimate beginner guitar for almost any style of music. The iconic S-style axe was the second electric guitar ever produced and hundreds of brands have put their own twist on the classic design.
Key Features
- Perfect For Beginners – Built with beginners in mind and bought to you at an accessible price, the EastCoast ST1 features quality components and versatile pickups, giving you a guitar that not only looks great, but sounds great too.
- Versatile Sonic Palette – The Poplar construction provides a tight, resonant tone, whilst the classically-voiced single-coil pickups produce a versatile sonic range that suits plenty of styles and abilities.
- Excellent Tuning Stability – This guitar will stay in tune no matter how much you play thanks to quality hardware.
Sound
The ST1 has three single-coil pickups - the parts of the guitar that take the sound of the strings and directs it into an amp. These produce a twangy, bright tone suited to crisp clean sounds and searing solo leads. There are loads of sounds to explore because of the three interchangeable pickups. Perfect for players who want to play lots of styles of music.
You might be wondering what the protruding handle is coming out of the bridge. This tremolo or 'whammy' bar as it's commonly known, lets you change the note of the string without moving your left hand. You can get extremely creative with the tremolo.
Looks
Almost every guitarist has played or owned an S-style guitar, be it one suited to blues, folk, jazz or metal. The double-cutaway makes it extremely easy to get your left hand up to the highest of the 22 frets. These are the thin metal bars across the fingerboard. The more you have, the more notes you can play.
