I'm looking for a cheap single coil strat style guitar

Re: I'm looking for a cheap single coil strat style guitar

If there's one thing the world isn't short on, it's cheap Strats.


What era of Silvertone are we talking about? That name has changed hands more often than a neurotic poker player.

Squire bullets
Rondo Music has SX strats
Guitar Fetish has their Xavier Strats
Used Squire Affinity

All under $100

How much money constitutes "cheap"? $400 could be considered "cheap" relative to a $1200 Fender USA. $200 could be "cheap" relative to a MIM Standard.

Ooops. Nevermind. Silvertone would be cheap as in $100.

Didn't Paul Stanley play a Silvertone? Surely not a "cheap" one, but you got the brand name thing going on :jester:

I really like the late 80's early 90's Epiphone S310s, here's one on eBay for a little more than I paid for mine (I paid $120 off of CL.) Also had a T-310 (here's one on eBay as well)...wish I hadn't sold those guitars, great tone and had very nice necks–perfect for practicing and taking to a gig you don't want your nicest guitar at.

What a coincidence. I've got an old S210 sitting on my bench right now, that I'm thinking of listing on the Trading Post. It has the cool "Batwing" headstock. Like this: (Although, mine is all black.)

Also, it's MIK, which I like just a smidgen more than "made in:" China/Taiwan/Indonesia.

Sweet man! I actually prefer the Explorer/Hockey Stick style headstock better ;) But yeah, MIK is something I prefer over MIC, MIT, MII...although the Indonesian Jacksons I've played recently were awesome.

Pacifica. Yeah I know it has hb in the bridge (the SSS is very rare). Great modding platform
