• 1. ST BLUES BLUES GUITARS WHITE LIGHTNING, 29 April 2012, 20:07, by Jimbo

  I’ve been a player & enthusiast for fifty years. I bought my first Silvertone electric from Sears in 1963. Since then I’ve played just about everything under the sun and in that time I’ve come to respect build quality because it determines the longevity, tone quality & playability of the instrument and tells the world what kind of commitment to craftsmanship the manufacturer embraces.

  I currently own four electrics, two of which are St. Blues. I investigated the "61 South" in Jan. on eBay because I wanted a semi hollow body unit to play when my back won’t accomodate my solid body "Tele" knock-off or my vintage "Strat" so I looked in the $700 price range & won the bid on the "61 South".

  I fell in love with it IMMEDIATELY! It is BY FAR the best sounding, most playable semi hollow body I’ve played in decades but the clincher was the fact that it is as rugged as it is beautiful. In fact I was so impressed by this little gem that I snached up the last "White Lightning" SOLID BODY because those three tappable custom wound single coil P-90’s produce the most exquisit range of tones from a Fender "Blues DeLuxe" amp you ever heard.

  Yeah, I’m jazzed by the product St. Blues puts out because I got more value for the money than I EVER expected. These are PERFORMER’S instruments that produce sound quality that causes a very positive reaction from both the player and who’s ever within earshot!
