What we think of the SSS Goldstar: A vintage appointed electric 6-string with a distinct Hendrix vibe given its off-white finish on white pickguard. Perfect for players who prefer classic S-Style guitars but want the smooth experience of Japanese craftsmanship and premium components. The sonic range available via the 5-way toggle opens the door to rich tones from jazz to classic rock and beyond. If you're looking for a more modern option with a flashier tremolo: check out the HSS version of the Goldstar!
