Description

The EastCoast ST2 is an ultra-versatile beginner electric guitar designed to handle any style of playing. The iconic S-style guitar has been a go-to for countless artists since the ‘50s, and is more popular than ever with today’s guitar heroes. The ST2 comes loaded with powerful pickups and premium features that make it a dream to play – and it looks the part to boot!

Key Features

  • Perfect For Beginners – Built with beginners in mind and brought to you at an accessible price, the EastCoast ST2 is a comfortable, lightweight guitar with sounds & classic looks to match – whatever your style!
  • Choose Your Sound – With a combination of a fat-sounding ‘humbucker pickup’ and twangy ‘single-coil’ pickups lets you flick from crystal-clean sounds to powerful rock riffs, and everything in between.
  • Excellent Tuning Stability – The ST2 keeps your strings in tune thanks to solid die-cast tuners – but if you want to get expressive, the 6-saddle ‘whammy’ bar is primed for wild Hendrix-style wailing!

Sound

The ST2 has one humbucker and two single-coil pickups – the parts of the guitar that take the sound of the strings and directs it into an amp. The humbucker, which is closest to the bridge of the guitar, produces a thick powerful tone perfect for punchy rhythm playing or rip-roaring leads. The single-coils are bright and articulate, perfect for melodic rhythm parts and crisp, dynamic lead lines.

There are loads of sounds to explore because you’re able to switch between and interchange the pickup combinations. 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.

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.
