The finish on this one is definitely better (although the other one is good), just small things like better routes, neater pickguard cut and neck pocket etc. The frets and neck are superb and rival any Fender I've played, it feels just like my old Mustang

I'm totally blown away at this guitar, I can't believe the quality you can get for £80 these days.

you need to take a bit of spray paint to that headstock, mate! that signature is gash!

i love the grain on the fretboard though, classy.

Meh, it's just a name :wink: I got some SX-branded accessories with this one so they are definitely the Rondo guitars.

yes, it's just a name.

so is SX, so is fender, so is STARCASTER.

the problem is that the font and size is offensively HUGE and looks like shit. s'all i'm saying. TEHO

I think it looks kind of cool actually. it's sort of a "radical" 80s font.

Rondo doesn't have the shorty SX strats any more.

that Richwood tele is one that a friend of mine found on ebay and bought.


about 6 months later, they started selling the SX version on Rondomusic but it had the gash headstock and the one off of ebay didn't.
