The TE-SP also has a cutaway shape that helps you to reach the higher frets, and sounds good even when it's not plugged in, thanks to its solid spruce top - not bad for under £200!

With an attractive soundhole rosette, curved "grand auditorium" body shape and a matt finish, it's easy on the eye too!
