SKU: E2BLK

Product Description

Based on a classic electric guitar design, the lightweight and affordable Encore E2 is a great guitar to start learning on.

Construction

The E2 is based on the T-style shape which not only looks classic but is also an accessible shape to play. Its lightweight body sits comfortably whether you’re practising seated or standing up. The maple neck and rosewood fingerboard offer a smooth playing experience for comfortably fretting notes and chords.

Sound

The E2 features two single-coil pickups - these types of pickups are known for their bright sound with every note ringing through crisp and clear. Single-coils are great pickups that work well for a variety of genres including blues, rock, country, funk, and more!

This guitar features a volume and tone controls for adjusting how loud and bright you want your sound to be, as well as a three-position pickup selector. Put it in the neck position for warmer and smoother tones, or select the bridge for a brighter, more aggressive sound. Or select the middle position to get both pickups and a mix of the two sounds.

I was looking for a decent cheap telecaster as a re-finishing and upgrade project. The Encore had the vintage ashtray bridge and string-through body, i don't like the Squier bridges, string through or not and you can't swap them for an ashtray type as they don't fit. The cons with the Encore is that, it is far too light in weight, the headstock shape is not good and the string through ferrules are too big and don't look right. I can modify the ferrules and the headstock but it will always be too light. When i've finished, it will be a good looking guitar, but i won't be spending too much on the upgrades, not really viable. Decent guitar for beginners, as it was intended, but you would be better off in the second-hand market if you want a project guitar. I'm not going to rate the guitar against more expensive ones, that would not be fair. Guitars in this price range.
