With its beginner-focused S-Concept design, rolled Rosewood Edgeless fingerboard and classic three single-coil layout, it gives you the familiar feel and tones of a traditional strat-style instrument at a price that makes sense for your first serious guitar. Built from solid Indonesian mahogany with a comfortable C-shape maple neck, the S1 offers a reassuringly sturdy feel and a warm, resonant sound that works for everything from clean chords to crunchy riffs. Paired with a smooth-playing 25.5 inch scale, medium jumbo frets and a responsive tremolo bridge, it is a versatile all-rounder that will happily follow you from bedroom practice to band rehearsals as your playing develops. Beginner Friendly S-Concept Design The S1 has been designed from the ground up with new players in mind, combining a familiar S-style body shape with a comfortable neck profile and intuitive controls. The result is a guitar that feels natural in your hands, helping you focus on learning songs and techniques rather than fighting your instrument. Comfortable Neck with Edgeless Fingerboard A hard maple C-shape neck and Rosewood Edgeless fingerboard with rolled fretboard edges make the S1 smooth and comfortable to play, even for longer sessions. The 9.5 inch radius and medium jumbo frets strike a great balance between easy chord work and confident string bending, ideal for beginners finding their way around the neck.
