Answers: What are the best electric guitars under 250 euros?

• budget electric guitar review
• guitar pickup comparison
• guitar setup and intonation
• stratocaster vs telecaster vs les paul vs sg

What it concludes

• The Ibanez GRG140SB RG Gio ranked lowest due to an odd sound, poor setup out of the box, and a lack of tension on the truss rod.
• The Harley Benton ST-62CC MN is heavy, unresonant due to a thick maple neck, and lacks resonant pickups.
• The Epiphone Les Paul Special VE VSB has loose volume and tone knobs and bridge pickup intonation issues.
• The Squier Affinity Strat FMT HSS MN plays well and looks great, but lacks depth in its sound.
• The Cort Classic Rock CR100 delivers classic Les Paul style looks and sound with a bridge pickup that works well.
• The Squier Bullet Tele Brown Sunburst is fun to play with a great bridge pickup despite a basic look and feel on the neck pickup position.
