An Accessible Type S in the Eko Spirit
Inspired by the iconic shapes from the 1950s, the ST300 adopts the codes that have endured through generations: double cutaway, trio of single-coil pickups, and vintage-style vibrato. Eko offers here an interpretation designed to remain affordable while preserving the ergonomics and versatility that made this format successful, featuring a glossy finish and a vintage white pickguard with an aged look.For Which Guitarist and Styles?
The Eko ST300 is primarily aimed at the beginner guitarist (and intermediate players looking for a simple and effective electric guitar). Its SSS configuration and 5-position selector make it comfortable for pop, rock, blues, funk, and dynamic clean tones. It also handles moderate overdrive very well and can become more biting with heavier distortion while maintaining definition.The Sound
The poplar body provides a pleasant balance: a rather neutral response that highlights the versatility of the pickups and remains comfortable for everyday playing. The maple neck enhances attack and snap, while the laurel fingerboard slightly rounds the feel for a soft yet precise compromise. The 3 single-coil pickups deliver bright, articulate clean tones, with intermediate positions (2 and 4) offering scooped and smooth sounds ideal for rhythm playing. The vibrato completes the setup with expressive nuances, and its adjustable saddles allow fine-tuning of intonation string by string.Technical specifications
