Encore KC-3 Reviews 3

I bought this guitar with cash for £180 with loads of stuff from a small local shop.

This guitar looks good and feels good. It looks like a fender. I felt that this guitar could be used for any kind of music, from country to metal.

The sound it produces isn't great, and it rattles a bit. But when considering the price, you can't really complain.

It feels good to play, looks good and is really durable. I dropped mine down the stairs and it was still ok.

This guitar isn't perfect, but for the price its great! A good starting model.

I got this for £130 as part of a set - amp, strap, tuner etc. It was my first guitar, and I still play it occasionally.

This guitar keeps the tuning quite well too, and the tremolo unit does not usually throw it too much out of tune.

The sound leaves a lot to be desired. The neck on mine wasn't very smooth either.

The construction is quite solid, and the guitar is able to take lots of knocks and bumps. Once again, the pickups lack a good sound, and there is a lot of background noise.

This guitar is okay for the first-time buyer. It does not have a good sound, but (almost) everyone buys more guitars, so that is almost acceptable. However, this guitar is still below par.
