Sound Pure's Take

Weight: 7.3 lbs.

From Mario Guitars

When the S-Style was first released in late 1950’s, it was designed with comfort in mind.  The T-Style had already been released and many people complained of the discomfort it presented with its hard round overs and slab body.  Thus, the S-Style with its contours and curves came to the rescue!

Since then, the S-Style has become an American icon.  Possibly one of the most recognizable electric guitar shapes, S-Styles have graced the shoulders of Stevie Ray Vaughn, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and many, many more!
