Artist STH Electric Guitar with Humbucker Pickup
If you're someone who wants to play a bit of metal like Pantera, Van Halen or Metallica, but then wants to play rock like Arctic Monkeys or Cold Play, and then wants also to do a bit of Jimi Hendrix... basically you looking for a guitar that can do a bit of everything, then this electric guitar is the right choice for you.
This guitar gives you a clean sound as well as much distortion as you can handle from your amp or effect pedals without any extra unwanted noise and squeals.
The STH electric guitar is a great way to be introduced into the world of rock, funk and blues as it is a beginners copy of a classic guitar that has done countless albums, tours and made many a guitar icon. The contoured body provides great comfort in playing which has made this type of guitar a favourite with many players.
It has tremolo bridge that is not floating, or lock tuning like a Floyd rose, but rather it is designed for a small amount of vibrato so locking nuts are not necessary. Great Quality and Wilkinson Pickups make this guitar a step above the rest. This is a real musical instrument not a toy, designed by our local luthiers and players. We also sell these as a package with an amplifier if you need.
This is a full size guitar perfect for Adults, recommended for Children over the age of 12 (or younger if your child is strong and taller than 1.2m)
It includes all accessories you need to get started:
- STH Electric Guitar
- Electronic Guitar Tuner
- Strap
- Bag

As an addition to buying your new guitar, we are proud to offer you a series of online lessons designed specifically for beginning guitar students. This series of lessons is designed and presented by our inhouse guitar teacher John Holland. John has over 35 years of teaching experience from beginner to advanced and absolutely believes that the basic fundamentals of this great instrument form an extremely useful base for all practising guitarists.
This is what this lesson pack is all about - the stuff that nobody really tells you at the start of your guitar playing journey. Issues like holding the guitar, using a plectrum and some simple exercises to start you off. So whether you're 7 or 70, take some time to check out the lesson pack and most importantly - be patient and have fun!

Some of this guitar's great features
* It has an Eco-rosewood fingerboard and maple neck, a 2 way truss rod (which means you can adjust the neck up or down)
* Wilkinson pickups (ceramic) mean you will get a much better sound than a "standard" pickup. The STH comes with a Humbucker and 2 single coil pickups. This gives you more versatility in the styles you can play. Humbucker pickups allow you to produce better distorted tones.
* It has a classic strat style bridge (so you can do classic style tremolo and string bends) & die-cast machine heads that will help you stay in tune longer and make your tuning easier.

Artist STH Brown Sunburst Electric Guitar + Humbuc
By: Johan on 8 November 2019I recently purchased this guitar and was very impressed with the quality,finish and sound of this guitar. I am mainly a classical guitar player, but play some electric as well. This guitar is real value for money and I certainly recommend this product for anyone considering buying an electric guitar. It is just as good if not better than my very expensive Spector guitar. You cannot go wrong with this instrument and Artist Guitars are a great company to deal with if any issues. I have placed a few orders with this company now and quality,delivery and communication have been excellent.

Artist STH
By: Richard Gordon-Davis on 26 July 2019Hi guys. Thank you so much for the FAN-TAS-TIC new guitar that I received yesterday from your NZ store. The prompt service I got as well as the great communication was a very welcome surprise in this day and age of internet shopping!! This is my first electric and the quality of my guitar far exceeds my expectations and I am over the moon with the instrument! And as for value for money.... well I initially wondered if you had not by chance sent me the wrong guitar as this thing is very good and to be honest better it plays better than what I paid for ... and it came with a decent gig bag, electronic tuner, lead, spare set of strings as well as a plectrum! I have been a guitarist for 40 years and have acoustic and semi electric brands such as a Martin, Ibanez and the top of the range 12 string Tanglewood guitars in my collection and believe me when I say that the Artist STH is not a poor cousin and can hold it's own! The action was better than expected as is the intonation, which took very little adjustment to get it to my preference. I did however adjust the pickup heights to balance the output sound, but this to be expected as I am into blues and rock....not a shredder. I would highly recommend this Artist guitar to all skill level of guitarist. Many thanks and kindest regards.

Great Strat
By: Graeme Odgers on 28 March 2019I purchased the Artist STH Metallic Blue Electric Guitar + Humbucker, after reading other reviews. I consider this a great purchase for those looking for a guitar to practice with and use in live performance. Out of the box everything was in good order. I tuned it up and plugged it in to my amp and it produced beautiful clean tones without further modifications. I didn't want to spend large amounts of money on a well known brand as I didn't know how I would be able to handle an electric guitar or if it would even be suitable for me. I've played an acoustic for many years. But this Stratocaster sounds great and is beyond my expectation. A professional friend of mine tried it and said "it's amazing, what colours do they come in - I want one!" Well done Artist Guitars! I would recommend this to anybody.
