This Silveray Special Deluxe Electric Guitar is a fantastic build guitar for the asking price, continuing the trend amongst all the Silveray guitars. The flavour with this model is a sleek looking instrument, alongside masses of bite at the core of its sound.
This is achieved in part by the combination of solid Mahogany for the body, with a flamed Maple top, exhibiting crunchy mid range, warm bass response and smooth, chirpy treble for a great all round sound. The appointment of a set-in Mahogany neck boasting 22 frets mounted to a Blackwood fretboard proves to be a great combination with the body tone woods, and with a single cutaway plus satin finish C shape neck profile, it's perfect for low string action. Just what you want in when learning guitar!
The body shape of this Silveray Special Deluxe is also pretty unique amongst so many guitar manufacturers. With a single cutaway to enhance playability, a striking shape and a skinnier waist and profile than most guitars, this instrument is much easier to work around, making it ideal for players of a smaller frame!
The remainder of the sound, of course, comes from the powerful pickups equipped to the body. A dual-coil Gold foil pickup is situated at the neck position, with a gritty sounding humbucker mounted in the bridge. The combination opens a lot of doors for tonal versatility, as the humbucker is great for high gain, high output applications like rock, punk or metal, yet still articulate enough for softer styles of music.
The star of the show is definitely the Gold foil neck pickup however. With plenty of attitude, it chews up and spits out your guitar signal in such a way that would make the humbucker in the bridge jealous. Twangy and punchy, it lends itself to a fairly different tonal character than regular dual coils, and with the 3 way pickup selector, master volume and master tone pots plus a mini switch to split the Gold foil pickups coils between single coil and dual, there loads of room for switching up your sound to get it just how you like it.
Additional features include Diecast machine heads, a NuBone nut, a T style bridge and controls consisting of: a Master Volume knob, Master Tone knob, and the 5 way pickup selector.
For a guitar that can kick out hard when you need it to, but be versatile enough for twangy blues or funk styles this Silveray Special Deluxe Electric Guitar does it all!
