Eko ST350 HSS Sunburst

An ST Inspired by the Classics: The Vintage Spirit According to Eko

The ST350 adopts the aesthetic and ergonomic codes that have marked the history of the electric guitar since the 1950s: ST format, double cutaway, vintage-look pickguard, and Strat-style vibrato. Eko offers here an accessible and well-finished interpretation, designed to deliver the "retro" look and the versatility expected from a first electric guitar, while maintaining a simple and reassuring feel.

Who Is It For, and What Styles?

The Eko ST350 HSS is primarily aimed at beginner guitarists who want an easy-to-play guitar capable of covering multiple genres without multiplying instruments. Thanks to its 5-position selector and HSS configuration, it is comfortable in pop, rock, blues, funk, and can also handle more modern sounds with heavy crunch or distortion via the bridge humbucker.

Sound

The ST350 combines a poplar body and a maple neck for a lively and direct response, ideal for working on attack and precision. The laurel fingerboard slightly softens the natural snap of the maple, balancing the tone on both clean sounds and overdriven tones. On the passive electronics side, the bridge humbucker provides higher output, more warmth, and better distortion sustain, while the two single-coil pickups retain the more crystalline and dynamic ST-typical tone. The 5-position selector allows switching from a sharp and precise sound to more scooped intermediate positions, very useful for rhythm playing.
