Golats Posted June 16, 2018 Posted June 16, 2018 Can anybody clarify what the make of this guitar is? It looks exactly like an SX SE3, even down to the offset āside partingāĀ on the headstock, but the logo is wrong. The same logo appears on the tuners and neck plate too. Did SX guitars ever use a different logo...or is it an XS guitar? If it is I canāt find out anything about them on the net. Whatever it is itās a decent guitar, very solid build, weighty and nice to play. I bought it from Gumtree, not working. Iāve now fixed it and want to sell it on but I donāt know what to ask for it.
therealting Posted June 19, 2018 Posted June 19, 2018 I think thatās an XS - and I think I have a banjo with that logo on it!
Golats Posted June 20, 2018 Author Posted June 20, 2018 Thanks @therealtingĀ at least I know Iām not the only person in the world with one of these! Ā

I did manage to find one with the same logo as mine (see link). I'm still non the wiser though. https://www.ewbankauctions.co.uk/20170302MG-lot-508-XS-Electric-Guitar-Serial-20347747-with-case?arr=0&auction_id=371&box_filter=0&category=&department_id=&exclude_keyword=&export_issue=0&high_estimate=0&image_filter=0&keyword=&list_type=&lots_per_page=10&low_estimate=0&month=&page_no=0&paper_filter=0&search_type=&sort_by=&view=lot_detail&year=
adamg67 Posted July 21, 2018 Posted July 21, 2018 Got to be an SX, surely, with the headstock shape? There's one on ebay with the same logo:Ā https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SX-Electric-Guitar-LP-Black-B-Stock-RRP-260/122963915814?epid=1554765022&hash=item1ca1387426:g:HGkAAOSwXf1agXc4 Looks the same but in black.

That's what I thought - the head shape is exactly the same, but why the different logo? I even contacted SX about it......but they ignored me š Thanks for the link @adamg67I'll keep an eye on that. I sold mine for only Ā£64 on an eBay auction but still quite happy as I only paid Ā£15 for it.

Comfortably under Ā£100 second hand IMO, and if you're anything like me you probably enjoyed getting it working again - I just replaced all the electronics on my old Washburn Wing cos I didn't like it sitting there not working, it'sĀ probably worthĀ less than the parts cost
