This second hand electric guitar is in very good condition
a small dent on the back of the body
The Encore E6 is a long-running entry-level electric guitar, designed in the UK by Encore (part of the John Hornby Skewes family of brands) and aimed squarely at beginners. With its Strat-style body, affordable price, and inclusion in countless starter packs, the E6 has been a first guitar for thousands of players.
Build & Design
-
Body: Solid-bodied Stratocaster-style design, usually made of basswood or similar budget tonewood.
-
Neck: Maple bolt-on neck with a rosewood or engineered fingerboard, 22 frets.
-
Finish: Wide range of colours — black, red, sunburst, white, blue — often with a glossy polyurethane finish.
-
Hardware: Standard Strat-style tremolo bridge, die-cast tuners (basic but functional), and a plastic nut.
-
Weight & Feel: Lightweight compared to full Fender Stratocasters, making it comfortable for younger players.
Electronics
-
Pickups: Three single-coil pickups in the traditional Stratocaster configuration.
-
Controls: 5-way selector switch, single master volume, and two tone controls.
Tone & Performance
-
Clean tones: Clear and bright, leaning toward the classic “Strat” character. Neck pickup gives a warm bluesy tone, while bridge pickup has bite for rhythm playing.
-
Overdriven tones: Works well for light rock, blues, and indie tones, but the pickups can sound harsh with too much gain.
-
Playability: Slim neck profile makes it beginner-friendly. Fretwork is acceptable at this price, though not flawless — some sharp fret ends are common.
-
Tuning stability: The tremolo bridge isn’t the most reliable; heavy whammy bar use often knocks tuning out.
Strengths
-
Very affordable — one of the cheapest full-size Strat-style guitars available.
-
Comfortable neck, ideal for beginners.
-
Classic look and versatile 3-pickup setup.
-
Lightweight and easy to handle.
Body: Solid paulownia
