Encore Strat Copy

This guitar was made in Korea and it has a volume control and two tone controls.22 frets and i pretty cheesy guitar. but when i got it i thought it was a good buy. Now i have a Epiphone Special 2 which is great

Well, I play alot of punk and heavy metal so this guitar does ok. i am using a crate amp and a Korg effect pedal which is very sweet. but it still doesnt sound as clean as my other guitars.

This guiar looks pretty much exactly the same as a original fender strat. except for the name of course. the pickup is kind of noisy and the strap knob fell off so this is pretty lame guitar

Yea personnally i think this is the worst guitar ive ever owned. and if you're going to buy it, please dont and save the hassel of the reapairs. do the right thing

Well it sure has broken alot but I have never used costomer support

I have been playing for almost 2 years and this was my first guitar and I really didnt know what I was getting my self into. This guitar really doesnt compare to any of the guitars that I have owned. It kinda has a league of its own (aka it sucks) If you want a quality guitar you gotta spend the money. bottom line

Not a great deal of features, plays good though.

Sounds very clean, i caN play metallica on it easy

It looks basically like a fender strat, so i give it a average grade

Not very durable, but better than nothing

Not too shabby, good beggining guitar

this a japanese guitar with 22 frets which i think is unusual 'cos most of them seem to have 21. its black laminated top with a black scratch plate mine covered in chips and stickers and stuff (it looks cool) it has one vol and two tones a five way selector. there are three single coil pickups, fuck knows ehat they are just encore ines i supposei dont know ehat the body is made out of although through the chips it loks scarilly like chipboard (that cant be true). the trem is the standard strat style although this one is definately cheeper. the machine heads are cheep metal looking plastic and the neck is quite thin which i like. its got the same features as a stratso i give it an average rating. the thing will not stay in tune

i got this guitar when i first started playing adn i could nly play stuff like nirvana it sounded cool for that cos it sounds quite mushey and feeds back a fair bit, the is always an underlying buzz. ilike the sound for nirvana and other quite rough sounding stuff but it wouldent work for metallica it would sound too dead. infact i think nirvana is the only think it's good for i sound really bad without distortion really like wet cardboard.

i got this guitar second hand when i got it the action was too high so i lowered it and the pickiups were too. none of the hardware has any rust. however the frets do stick out at the edge at about fret 19 and you can easily get string caugh under them or even catch your finger on one if yo move the pickup selector when the guitar is plugged in oyu get i real loud crunch which i quite like. unplugged this guitar feels really nice its a pity about its plugged in sound

this guitar would not whichstand live playing, actually has not withstood live playing. the first thing to go was one of the tone knobs it just goes around and around now. thent he trem went, the bit of metal you screw the bar into just cracked and fell to bits i couldent believe it. two of them cheap plastic machine heads broke aswell the jack for the lead is really wobbley and wont tighten so you get lots of crackles the stap buttons are also useless i used to cover the ends or the strap the button and the top of the guitar with tape to stop the guiter falling off. you cannot depend on this guitar although i did a couple of times and got away with iti think i was exceptionally lucky iwouldent even use it as a back up now untill i replaced a lot of things.

fuck knows its second hand and no one seems to know much about encore

kmow i've been playing about five or six years and i own in ibanez RG 507 which i love and this guitar wouldent need a backup. i hate the build quality of this guitar but even though the sound is crap i kind of like it when i'm in the mood i love the way it looks its totally batered from being droped having pints of beer spilt over it etc and generally playing it whem i'm pissed tend to knacker it out. it also smells a bit. if it were lost or stolen i would be gutted cos i cant replace it btu no one would want to steel it. the only reason i baught this guitar a the time was cos it was cheap. i really like this guitar even though i know its crap and every one else would hate it.
