SX Strat (VERY Nice Looking Cheap Stratocaster)
The world is filled with cheap guitars, and Strats are no exception. The problem with affordable Strats (and other guitars) is that they're often not very good. This Strat by SX Guitars certainly looks very good, and it's really budget friendly. Let's see if it's as good as it looks.
Hope you enjoy!

Elmo you didn't notice the beefier neck, the flatter radius, fully coated fretboard and jumbo frets! To me the finish of the neck and fretboard is the best part, it feels like a way more expensive guitar in this regard,. I got three of this specific model. Cheers!

I've owned an SX es335 copy (GG5 I think) for about 15 years now. The hardware, electronics and pickups were junk but the wood and construction surprisingly nice. After upgrades it's been a very enjoyable guitar. SX loves those big frets because this has them as well.

I have a couple of SX VTG series 32" scale basses and I agree with you about the instrument itself being solid - good neck, decent frets, okay electronics for the price, etc. On the basses I put good tuners on them, strap locks, a quick fret end dressing, and a good setup and they are surprisingly good. Thank you for reviewing this S-Type SSS configured rocker.

In the 80ies I got an original Fender P Bass. For 800.I was happy with this Bass. Palisander Fretboard, standard sunburst look. The seller said it was 20 years old. So far, so good. With one Amp the deep G was always louder than the other the notes I played. I tried other PUs. The result wasn't satisfiend. Well, as time goes by I purchased a double bass. Wow. The big one. I sold the P Bass and the amp. So far so good I could play in a Country Band. I got a SX P Bass for 300. this SXbass sounded (and sounds still) far better as the original Fender P Bass in the 80ies. Some time later I got another SX bass, a Sting Ray copy. For 300. With active electronics, with very good woods. Excellent handling, excellent sounds. The P Bass got a Seymour Duncan PU, and I had Avery great tone. So far to SX instruments.

I have an SX, bought it on a whim, too arthritic to learn to play it. I have had it for 5 yrs, the finish is very good, has a rosewood fret board, has stayed in my basement (heated and cooled) no tarnish on the chrome. Several years ago the one with a gold looking trim, it was beutaful, they quit selling it because it tarnished quickly so I think they are concerned about quality. No mechanical issues

I owned the same guitar, it wasn`t so good. The most strange thing was the uneven surface under the tremolo. The truss rod was installed incorrectly, so this led to difficulties in neck adjustment. But, nevertheless, I nave SX alder tele whith one piece maple neck, and this thing is perfect in every way, except the pickups. I put poper ones, and now I have almost real tele with all the twang and chime etc

Something I would like to see as a different approach to reviewing guitars is to review them without regard for price. Is a guitar great, very good, average, below average or lousy? Obviously people are concerned with the price and the price can be stated at the end. I really like Elmos reviews because he doesn't sugar coat what something is

I would be too tempted to buy the Squire Natural Vibe(Indonesia), if I were looking for something like this, I know those guitars are decently reliable in terms of QC, come with Fender tuners, with very little to set up, or fix on delivery. The SX is made in China(Like many budget guitars), but has a US flag on it(assembled in US, maybe?), that's always very odd to me. Great looking guitar, on first appearance tho.

Another inexpensive Chinese made Stratocaster knockoff. What's with the American flag on the thing? If it is sold in Europe, why not the round star thing? It's a bigger market. Their website shows they are based in China. Why not the Chinese flag? Why not one of those Nordic flags with the crosses? Maybe the Maple Leaf for a Maple guitar. Oh well. It looks like a decent product. Elmo's playing of the William Tell overture (Lone Ranger thing) sounded good on it. It does indeed look very nice.

In general, I'm not sure. This one developed some fret issues, but other than that it was good.

every price has a reason. Cheap is not cheap because it is good but because it is bad. I know this from my own experience because I never had money for an expensive guitar but I bought cheap ones and never enjoyed the tone of the guitar. And the beauty of the guitar is not important at all. the sound and fine finish are important, and cheap guitars don't have that. Now I have Eko s300 beauty cheap 155€ guitar but with terrible sound. 😣

Thats a very entry level guitar as you said, your changed your playing up which good on a few levels as you did it on a pretty crappy guitar. Are you a dedicated gear review channel ? If not you should learn the intro to say G.O.A.T. by Polyphia I think they are called .You have more than the skills to learn it, this Tim Henson kid is very talented but its mathematical music which I find soulless the drummer is the star if you ask me, nevertheless if you put up a vid saying " I learnt G.O..A.T. " just the initial guitar intro so you dont get in trouble with KZfaq you will get a ton of views & more subscribers , younger players adore this kid & the guitar sound is this slightly overdriven but very clean which is the way guitar is heading ( guitar without tons of overdrive ? thats not for me, if I want to play clean I will but having it as your lead guitar tone.... hahahah thats not metal or R&R its prog ) they wear high necked thick jumpers no matter what the wether & cross their legs when they sit to play & have an arrogant air to them. Bending ? thats for boomers... look I am generalising & ranting but This Took me 3 days to learn, thats a long time for me so there are some difficult parts at the start in particular .Getting back to my initial point if you learnt this & played just the intro your numbers will clime no doubt ,& this is the point of having a channel, to reach as many people as possible & you'll have a new audience to teach how guitar is meant to sound & be played . Have a listen if you haven't already & see what you think & as always Take care.

Thanks for the suggestion. I had a listen and I just found it boring, so probably won't be learning it.

Sx make great guitars. The best thing you can do with that one is to remove that ridiculous sticker from the pickguard. There's nothing worse than seing that insignia plastered all over everything u.s. (".)
