The Sparkle Lineup: Premium Looks on a Budget
EastCoast has taken their most popular, classic-inspired shapes and given them an ultra-flashy makeover. Whether you prefer a twangy single-coil sound or heavy-hitting humbuckers, there is a sparkle finish to match your style:
- T1 in Orchid Sparkle: A timeless single-cut T-style guitar built for country, indie, and pop—available for just £99.
- ST1 in Ruby Sparkle: The ultimate all-rounder S-style guitar equipped with three ceramic single coils and a vibrato bridge, also priced at £99.
- GS61S in Midas Sparkle: A sleek, double-cut rock machine loaded with punchy ceramic humbuckers. Perfect for heavy riffs for £159.
- L1 in Lunar Dust Sparkle: A legendary single-cut design with a carved top, set neck, and dual humbuckers for warm, gritty tones at £199.
- ST2 in Cerulean Sparkle & T62 in Starry Night Sparkle: Expanding the palette with HSS (Humbucker-Single-Single) S-Style versatility and a double-bound-bodied T-style, both at £109.
- PJ4 Electric Bass in Emerald Sparkle: Bass players aren't left out of the fun! This versatile 4-string features both P-style and J-style single-coil pickups, letting you dial in everything from smooth, mellow low-end to punchy, articulate rock riffs for £129.
Designed for Playability and Comfort
EastCoast instruments have earned a sterling reputation—even earning the nod from renowned online guitar tutor JustinGuitar. These limited-edition models retain everything that makes the standard line so playable.
They feature a forgiving "low action" (meaning the strings sit closer to the fretboard), which is essential for beginners as it requires less pressure to fret notes, resulting in less finger pain and much longer practice sessions. The necks—crafted from woods like Okoume and Canadian Maple—boast modern 12-inch radius rosewood fingerboards and medium jumbo frets, allowing for smooth bending and easy chording.
Ready to Play Out of the Box
One of the biggest risks of buying an affordable electric guitar is inconsistent quality. EastCoast sidesteps this entirely through Andertons' in-house quality control. Experienced technicians individually inspect, set up, and play-test every instrument before shipping.
For first-time buyers, Andertons is also offering these limited edition sparkle guitars as comprehensive Starter Packs. Ranging from £199 to £399 depending on the guitar model, these bundles come loaded with everything needed to start rocking immediately:
- A 10W, 15W, or 35W practice amplifier
- Water-repellent gig bag
- Clip-on tuner, guitar cable, and strap
- Guitar folding stand and a pack of medium plectrums
Our Thoughts
Ultimately, EastCoast and Andertons have delivered a standout release that punches far above its price tag. Bringing vibrant, stage-ready sparkle finishes to an entry-level instrument is a refreshing move in a market often dominated by safe, subdued color options.
